Switch Memory and Configuration

Multiple Configuration Files

■ Transitions from one software release to another can be performed while

maintaining a separate configuration for the different software release

versions.

■ By setting a reboot policy using a known good configuration and then

overriding the policy on a per-instance basis, you can test a new configu-

ration with the provision that if an unattended reboot occurs, the switch

will come up with the known, good configuration instead of repeating a

reboot with a misconfiguration.

General Operation

Multiple Configuration Storage in the Switch. The switch uses three

memory “slots”, with identity (id) numbers of 1, 2, and 3.

A startup-config file stored in a memory slot has a unique, changeable file

name. You can use the startup-config in any of the memory slots.

Boot Options. With multiple startup-config files in the switch you can spec-

ify a policy for the switch to use upon reboot. The options include:

■ Use the designated startup-config file with either or both reboot paths

(primary or secondary flash)

■ Override the current reboot policy for one reboot instance by specifying

a boot path (primary or secondary flash) and the startup-config file to use.

Changing the Startup-Config File. When the switch reboots, the startup-

config file supplies the configuration for the running-config file the switch uses

to operate. Making changes to the running-config file and then executing a

write-mem command (or, in the Menu interface, the S

ave command) are

written back to the startup-config file used at the last reboot. For example,

suppose that a system administrator performs the following on a switch that

has two startup-config files (workingConfig and backupConfig):

ProCurve(config)# show config files
