Brocade Communications Systems 6650 manual System reload scheduling, Reloading at a specific time

System reload scheduling 3

20 – Upload the startup-config file from the flash memory of the Brocade device to the TFTP server.

21 – Download a startup-config file from a TFTP server to the flash memory of the Brocade device.

22 – Upload the running-config from the flash memory of the Brocade device to the TFTP server.

23 – Download a configuration file from a TFTP server into the running-config of the Brocade device.

NOTE

Option 23 adds configuration information to the running-config on the device, and does not replace commands. If you want to replace configuration information in the device, use “no” forms of the configuration commands to remove the configuration information, then use configuration commands to create the configuration information you want. Follow the guidelines in “Dynamic configuration loading” on page 59.

Erasing image and configuration files

To erase software images or configuration files, use the commands described below. These commands are valid at the Privileged EXEC level of the CLI:

•erase flash primary erases the image stored in primary flash of the system.

•erase flash secondary erases the image stored in secondary flash of the system.

•erase startup-configerases the configuration stored in the startup configuration file; however, the running configuration remains intact until system reboot.

System reload scheduling

In addition to reloading the system manually, you can configure the Brocade device to reload itself at a specific time or after a specific amount of time has passed.

NOTE

The scheduled reload feature requires the system clock. You can use a Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) server to set the clock or you can set the device clock manually. Refer to “Specifying an SNTP server” on page 20 or “Setting the system clock” on page 26.

Reloading at a specific time

To schedule a system reload for a specific time, use the reload at command. For example, to schedule a system reload from the primary flash module for 6:00:00 AM, April 1, 2003, enter the following command at the global CONFIG level of the CLI.

Brocade#reload at 06:00:00 04-01-03

Syntax: reload at <hh:mm:ss> <mm-dd-yy>[primary secondary]

<hh:mm:ss> is the hours, minutes, and seconds.
