Fabric OS 5.0.0 command reference guide 89

Saves zone configuration to flash memory.

Synopsis

cfgsave

Availability

admin

NOTE: This command requires an HP Advanced Zoning license.

Description

Use this command to save the current zone configuration. The defined configuration and the name of the

enabled configuration are written to flash memory in all switches in the fabric.

The saved configuration is automatically reloaded by the switch on power on and, if a configuration was

in effect at the time it was saved, the same configuration is reinstalled with an automatic cfgEnable

command.

Because the saved configuration is reloaded at power on, only valid configurations are saved. cfgSave

verifies that the enabled configuration is valid by performing the same tests as cfgEnable. If the tests

fail, an error is displayed and the configuration is not saved. Tests might fail if a configuration has been

modified since the last cfgEnable.

This command ends and commits the current transaction. If a transaction is open on a different switch in

the fabric when this command is run, the transaction on the other switch is automatically aborted. A

message is displayed on the other switches to indicate the aborting of the transaction.

NOTE: When security is enabled, this command can be issued only from the primary FCS switch.

Operands
