Introduction
RESTORE DATABASE FILE (SEC)
Syntax
RESTORE DATABASE FILE={sourcefile|unit:sourcefile|serverpath/
sourcefile} [{TFTP SERVER={ipaddress|hostname}|ZMODEM| FTP
SERVER={ipaddress|hostname} USER=userid PASSWORD=password}]
[FORCE]
Rewrites the configuration database with contents from a file transferred from an exter-
Description
nal network server. While the data is transferred from the server, it is buffered in RAM
memory in the CFC and not written to the flash. If the transfer fails or is aborted, the
existing database is retained. If the file transfer is successful, then the database in flash
memory is automatically purged and rewritten with the new contents. Once the flash
memory write completes, the CFC automatically restarts to apply the updates from the
database. * This command impacts service if completed successfully * User warning con-
firmation is required unless overridden with the FORCE option.
The following table gives the range of values for each option that can be specified with
