Service Manual

Downloading Scripts to a Switch
Download a script to the switch using TFTP, FTP, or FLASH. Save the script to the dedicated script storage
location, /usr/pkg/ss-scripts. For S3100 series, the storage location is /f10/flash/pkg/ss-scripts.
Network File System (NFS)
A Network File System (NFS) allows you to mount the file systems over a network and locally interact with
those file systems. To manage the file systems, perform the following tasks:
1 Configure the folders to mount a remote directory in the local Dell Networking OS path through a
network file system (NFS).
CONFIGURATION mode
mount nfs nfs-server-ip: remote_dir mount_name [username username | password
password]
NOTE: The NFS server exportfs setting must include the insecure keyword.
root@administrator-X8DTU-6:/usr# exportfs -v
/home/admin 1.1.0.0/16
(rw, wdelay, insecure, root_squash, no_subtree_check, sec=sys, rw,
root_squash, no_all_squash)
2 Copy a script to a switch and the downloaded files are stored at /usr/pkg/ss-scripts.
EXEC
script get url
NOTE: For S3100 series, the downloaded files are stored at /f10/flash/pkg/ss-scripts.
3 Remove a script from a switch.
EXEC
script remove {file_name file-name | all}
Setting a Search Path for Scripts
Create a path to the location where you stored the scripts. The Dell Networking OS uses this path when
searching for the scripts. This way you do not have to specify a specific path when executing a script.
• Set a search path for a script in the Dell Networking OS.
CONFIGURATION mode
script path path-name
