Using the USB port and USB flash drive

ServerIronADX# rename usb0/dir1/filexxx.bin fileyyy.bin

• Use the following command to rename the file “asm12000.bin“in the root level of a USB drive

attached to the external USB port (usb1) of the ServerIron ADX to “asm12000b.bin“.

ServerIronADX# rename usb1/asm12000.bin asm12000b.bin

• Use the following command to rename the file “file_abc.bin“ in the second-level directory

”dir2” of the USB drive attached to the external USB port (usb1) of the ServerIron ADX to the

name “file_xyz.bin“.

ServerIronADX# rename usb1/dir1/dir2/file_abc.bin file_xyz.bin

• Use the following command to rename the secondary image in code flash to sec2.

ServerIronADX# rename secondary sec2

Syntax: rename <file-full-path> <new-filename>

The <file-full-path> parameter specifies the full directory path and name of the file that you want to

delete. The <file-full-path> must start with usb0 or usb1, otherwise the file is assumed to be in

code flash.

The <new-filename> parameter specifies new name for the file specified in the <file-full-path>

parameter.

Formatting USB drives

You can format either the internal USB drive (usb0) or a USB drive attached to the external USB

port (usb1) with the fat32 file system. The following example formats a USB drive attached to the

USB port of the ServerIron ADX with the fat32 file system.

NOTE

Formatting a USB drive deletes all data on that drive. When you use this command, you will be

prompted with this information before proceeding.

For ADX 1U/4U and 10U with single management module, enter the following command.

ServerIronADX# usb format 1

Syntax: usb format 0 | 1

The 0 parameter directs the ServerIron ADX to format its internal USB drive.

The 1 parameter directs the ServerIron ADX to format an externally connected USB drive.

For a 10U with DUAL management module, enter the following command.

ServerIronADX# usb format 0 both

Syntax: usb format 0 <active-only |standby-only | both>

The 0 parameter directs the ServerIron ADX to format its internal USB drive.

The <active-only |standby-only | both> parameter specifies whether the MP is in active mode,

standby mode or both. The default value is “both”.

NOTE

The help prompt (?) will display the <active-only |standby-only | both> parameter only when the

redundant MPs and standby MPs exist in the device.
