Preserving Module Configuration

Issue the copy running-config startup-config command from EXEC mode to save the new
configuration into nonvolatile storage. Once this command is issued, the running and the startup copies
of the configuration are identical.

Table 10-4
Scenario
A particular switching module is removed and the copy
running-config startup-config command is issued again.
A particular switching module is removed and the same
switching module is replaced before the copy
running-config startup-config command is issued again.
A particular switching module is removed and replaced
with the same type switching module, and a reload
module number command is issued.
A particular switching module is reloaded when a reload
module number command is issued.
A particular switching module is removed and replaced
with a different type of switching module. For example, a
16-port switching module is replaced with a 32-port
switching module.
Sample scenario:

OL-6973-03, Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 2.x
displays various scenarios when module configurations are preserved or lost.
Switching Module Configuration Status
The switch currently has a 16-port switching module
and the startup and running configuration files are the
same.
You replace the 16-port switching module in the
switch with a 32-port switching module.
Next, you remove the 32-port switching module and
replace it with the same 16-port switching module
referred to in Step 1.
You reload the switch.
Preserving Module Configuration
Consequence
The configured module information is lost.
The configured module information is
preserved.
The configured module information is
preserved.
The configured module information is
preserved.
The configured module information is lost
from the running configuration. The
default configuration is applied.
The configured module information
remains in startup configuration until a
copy running-config startup-config
command is issued again.
Sample response:
The switch uses the 16-port switching
1.
module and the present configuration
is saved in nonvolatile storage.
2. The factory default configuration is
applied.
3. The factory default configuration is
applied.
The configuration saved in nonvolatile
4.
storage referred to in Step 1 is applied.
