Parameters
directory: Specifies a configuration archive directory, a case-insensitive string of 1 to 63 characters. The
directory must take the format storage-medium-name:/folder-name. For the 6604/6608/6616 router,
this directory must already exist on the active MPU. For the 6602/HSR6602 router, this directory must
already exist on the device.
filename-prefix: Specifies a file name prefix for configuration archives, a case-insensitive string of 1 to 30
characters. Valid characters are letters, digits, underscores (_), and hyphens (-).
Usage guidelines
Before archiving the running configuration, either manually or automatically, you must configure a
directory and file name prefix for configuration archives.
On the 6604/6608/6616 router, the configuration archive function saves running configuration only on
the active MPU. To make sure the system can archive running configuration after an active/standby
switchover, create the configuration archive directory on both active and standby MPUs.
Configuration archives take the file name format prefix_serial number.cfg, for example,
20080620archive_1.cfg and 20080620archive_2.cfg. The serial number is automatically assigned from
1 to 1000, increasing by 1. After the serial number reaches 1000, it restarts from 1.
After you change the file directory or file name prefix, or reboot the device, the old configuration archives
are regarded as common configuration files, the configuration archive counter resets, and the display
archive configuration command does not display them. The serial number for new configuration archives
starts from 1.
The undo archive configuration location command not only removes the configuration archive directory
and file name prefix settings but also disables the configuration archive function (both manual and
