Configuration Files
Note. Throughout this manual when a distinction between a SWAN concentrator (T3880) and
a SWAN 2 concentrator (T3881) is not required, SWAN concentrator is used as a collective
term.
Note. You should be familiar with the names and contents of the system configuration files and
the Subsystem Control Facility (SCF) interface to the WAN subsystem before attempting to
change your system configuration.
Table 3-1. Types of System Configuration Files (page 1 of 2)
File Type File Name Description
On the $SYSTEM.SYSnn subvolume:
Base CONFIG CONFBASE Contains the minimal configuration to load the
system. You use this file when you want to
rebuild the system configuration from the
absolute minimum configuration.
On the $SYSTEM.ZSYSCONF subvolume:
Current CONFIG CONFIG Contains the current system configuration.*
Saved CONFIG CONFxxyy Contains a copy of a CONFIG file, saved for
future use. You can use one of these files to
return to an earlier, stable configuration. The
file-naming convention is to let xx indicate a
major configuration change and yy indicate a
minor change.
