6-2 CHAPTER 6: SAVING, RESTORING, AND RESETTING NONVOLATILE DATA
Saving NV Data When NV data is saved, it is written to a disk file on a host computer. The
information can then be retrieved from the disk file when you use the
restore command.
To save NV data:
1 From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:
system nvData save
You are prompted for information for saving the data. To use the value in
brackets, press [Return] at the prompt. Any entry for IP address, file name,
and user name becomes the new default.
2 Enter the IP address of the station to which you want to save the NV data.
3 Enter the file path name where you want to save the file.
4 Enter your user name on the host system.
5 Enter your password on the host system.
6 Enter a name of the file (optional).
Example:
Host IP Address [158.101.100.1]: 158.101.112.34
NV Data file pathname: usr/jones/systemdata
User name: Tom
Password:
Enter an optional file label:
Labdata
If the information is incorrect or a connection could not be made with the
specified host, a message similar to the following is displayed:
Login incorrect.
Error: Could not open ftp session
If a session is successfully opened, a system message notifies you of the
success or failure of your save as in the following examples:
Success System NV data successfully stored in usr/jones/systemdata
of host 158.101.112.34.
Failure Error - Configuration not stored.
