configUpload
2
“file” A file name in quotation marks, for example, "config.txt". This parameter can
be used only with the -local and -USB options, each of which stores files in a
predefined directory on the local chassis or on an attached USB device.
Therefore, subdirectories and absolute path names are not permitted.
-force This parameter is used only with the -local and -USB options, and specifies
that any existing file can be overwritten. Without this option, you are
prompted to confirm such overwrites.
When invoked without operands or without “host” or “file” parameters, configUpload runs in
interactive mode. Note that "host" is not required when -local or -USB is specified.
Examples To upload a configuration file interactively from the local chassis:
switch:admin> configupload
Protocol (scp, ftp, local, or usb) [ftp]: local
File Name [config.txt]:
Overwrite previous file (Y/N)? [N]: y
configUpload complete: All config parameters are uploaded
To upload a local configuration file from the command line forcing an overwrite:
switch:admin> configupload -local -force config.txt
configUpload complete: All config parameters are uploaded
