Saving the Configuration File in Flash Memory

This section describes how to save the contents of the running-configuration file in RAM (volatile
memory) to the startup-configuration file for the current context in Flash memory (nonvolatile memory)
on the ACE.
Detailed Steps
Command
copy running-config startup-config
Example:
host1/Admin# copy running-config
startup-config
write memory [all]
Example:
host1/Admin# write memory all

Saving Configuration Files to a Remote Server

This section describes how to save the running-configuration file or startup-configuration file to a remote
server using File Transfer Protocol (FTP), Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP), or Trivial Transfer
Protocol (TFTP). The copy serves as a backup file for the running-configuration file or
startup-configuration file for the current context. Before installing or migrating to a new software
version, back up the ACE startup-configuration file to a remote server using FTP, SFTP, or TFTP. When
you name the backup file, we recommend that you name it in such a way that you can easily tell the
context source of the file (for example, running-config-ctx1, startup-config-ctx1).

Displaying Configuration File Content
Purpose
Copies the contents of the running-configuration file to the
startup-configuration file.
Copies the contents of the running-configuration file to the
startup-configuration file.
The optional all keyword saves configurations for all existing contexts.
This keyword is available only in the Admin context.
When used without the all keyword, this command copies the contents of
the running-configuration file for the current context to the
startup-configuration file.
Note
After you save the contents of the running-configuration file for
the current user context to the startup-configuration file, you
should also save the changes to the Admin context
startup-configuration file, which contains all configurations that
are used to create each user context.
