Configuration Example
As for the save command listed in Table 283 the safely keyword determines the
ways to save the current configuration, as described in the following.
If you execute this command with the safely keyword not specified, the system
■
saves the current configuration in the fast mode. In this mode, the configuration
gets lost if the switch restarts or is powered off when the saving operation is being
processed.
If you execute this command with the safely keyword specified, the system saves
■
the current configuration in the safe mode. Although this mode takes more time
than the fast mode, the configuration can be saved to the Flash even if the switch
restarts or is powered off when the saving operation is being processed.
The fast mode is recommended under the circumstances where the power systems
are reliable, while the safe mode is recommended when power system is unreliable or
you are performing a remote maintenance operation.
If you execute the save command with the cfgfile argument not specified, the
current configuration is saved in the configuration file with which the switch latest
starts. If the switch starts using the default configuration, the current configuration is
saved in the default configuration file.
To make a switch to adopt the current configuration when it starts the next time, save
the current configuration using the save command before restarting the switch.
With the file system, you can format a storage device. Note that the format operation
leads to the loss of all files on the storage device and is irretrievable.
Perform the following operation in user view.
