The CSS 11501 and the Switch Control Module (SCM) in the CSS 11503 and
CSS 11506 contain two PCMCIA slots for a hard disk or Flash disk. These disks
contain the CSS system software and are used for logging and storing offline
system files. The two disks are identified by the PCMCIA slots (slot 0 and slot 1)
in which they are installed. Disk 0 is the default storage location for the primary
and secondary boot records in the CSS. The default storage location for log files
and core dumps in the CSS is the specified disk from which the CSS boots (disk 0
or disk 1).
In addition to specifying the file storage locations, you can also:

•
