2 Copy the f10-copy-cong.mib MIB from the Dell iSupport web page to the server to which you are copying the conguration le.
3 On the server, use the snmpset command as shown in the following example.
snmpset -v snmp-version -c community-name -m mib_path/f10-copy-config.mib force10system-ip-
address mib-object.index {i | a | s} object-value...
• Every specied object must have an object value and must precede with the keyword i. Refer to the previous table.
• index must be unique to all previously executed snmpset commands. If an index value has been used previously, a message like
the following appears. In this case, increment the index value and enter the command again.
Error in packet.
Reason: notWritable (that object does not support modification)
Failed object: FTOS-COPY-CONFIG-MIB::copySrcFileType.101
• To complete the command, use as many MIB objects in the command as required by the MIB object descriptions shown in the
previous table.
NOTE: You can use the entire OID rather than the object name. Use the form: OID.index i object-value.
To view more information, use the following options in the snmpset command.
• -c: View the community, either public or private.
• -m: View the MIB les for the SNMP command.
• -r: Number of retries using the option
• -t: View the timeout.
• -v: View the SNMP version (either 1, 2, 2d, or 3).
The following examples show the snmpset command to copy a conguration. These examples assume that:
• the server OS is UNIX
• you are using SNMP version 2c
• the community name is public
• the le f10-copy-cong.mib is in the current directory or in the snmpset tool path
Copying Conguration Files via SNMP
To copy the running-cong to the startup-cong from the UNIX machine, use the following command.
• Copy the running-cong to the startup-cong from the UNIX machine.
snmpset -v 2c -c public force10system-ip-address copySrcFileType.index i 2
copyDestFileType.index i 3
Examples of Copying Conguration Files
The following examples show the command syntax using MIB object names and the same command using the object OIDs. In both cases, a
unique index number follows the object.
The following example shows copying conguration les using MIB object names.
> snmpset -v 2c -r 0 -t 60 -c private -m ./f10-copy-config.mib 10.10.10.10 copySrcFileType.101
i 2 copyDestFileType.101 i 3
FTOS-COPY-CONFIG-MIB::copySrcFileType.101 = INTEGER: runningConfig(2)
FTOS-COPY-CONFIG-MIB::copyDestFileType.101 = INTEGER: startupConfig(3)
The following example shows copying conguration les using OIDs.
> snmpset -v 2c -c public -m ./f10-copy-config.mib 10.10.10.10
.1.3.6.1.4.1.6027.3.5.1.1.1.1.2.100 i 2 .1.3.6.1.4.1.6027.3.5.1.1.1.1.5.100 i 3
FTOS-COPY-CONFIG-MIB::copySrcFileType.100 = INTEGER: runningConfig(2)
FTOS-COPY-CONFIG-MIB::copyDestFileType.100 = INTEGER: startupConfig(3)
