Backup And Restore Of Module Information - Hitachi Compute Blade 2000 User Manual

Backup and restore of module information

To protect against unexpected problems, you should back up module information. The
information to be backed up includes switch module information and configurations.
The switch module information is the information customized by a user such as configuration
including switch software and passwords, which is used to take the switch module back to the
status before replacement. The configurations are files for a switch such as VLAN and have the
following types:
 startup-config: a setting file referred to when a module starts
 running-config: a file to save the configurations that a module is using
If you change configuration and do not save it, startup-config
is different from running-config.
You can back up and restore information separately by using the backup and copy/cp
commands. You can copy the data into the ftp server or the optional memory card (MC). The
following shows an example of using commands.
