1000 ProCurve Switch xl Module (J4907A) 2004-05

Saving the Configuration After Installing or Exchanging a Module

The following cases automatically result in a change to the running-configuration on your switch:

 If you replace a module with another module of a different type and then reboot the switch

 If you install a module in a slot that has not previously been used (including when you install

a module

and apply power to the switch for the first time)

If you want to save such ch

anges to permanent memory (startup-configuration), use the write memory

command in the switch console. This causes the switch to use the new hardware configuration for

subsequent reboots. (The switch always reboots from the startup-configuration.)

If you

do not save the hardware changes to the startup-configuration, you will be prompted with the

following message the next time you use the reboot or reload commands:

Do you want to save the current configuration [y/n] ?

For more information on switch memory, including the startup-config and running-config memories,

refer to the Management and Configuration Guide on the Documentation CD-ROM included with

your switch. For the latest version of HP switch docu
