V-Switch 3000 Compact Flash
The V-Switch 3000 includes a compact flash for backing up the database to
provide redundancy and for backing up the application before upgrading
the software. The V-Switch 3000 has two permanent memory devices: flash
and compact flash. The V-Switch can work with only the flash. When both
are present, the V-Switch reads from the flash and can be set to write to
both the flash and the compact flash. Use the CLI command system set
to replicate the database from the flash on to the compact flash.
When set to replicate mode, the V-Switch copies the current database from
the flash to the compact flash. Any configuration changes done to the
database will automatically be updated to the compact flash as well.
system set
You need to define one parameter to set the replication mode:
SWITCH PARAMETER DEFINITION STATUS EXAMPLE
-rep
REPLICATE REPLICATION OF
THE DATABASE
MANDATORY
YES: REPLICATE
NO: DO NOT
REPLICATE
yes
system set –rep yes
If the compact flash is removed while the V-Switch is in replicate mode, it
will automatically switch to non-replicate mode, even if the compact flash is
re-inserted. Repeat the command system set to return to replicate mode.
At initialization in replication mode, the V-Switch checks both copies of the
database. If they are different, the V-Switch switches to non-replicate mode
to prevent erasing the compact flash.
The V-Switch’s database, application and configuration files can also be
copied from flash to compact flash or compact flash to flash. Use the CLI
command system copy to copy each file type separately.
Use the CLI command system copy to copy a file between the flash and
the compact flash.
