Note Configuration files are stored on the same flash disk as the boot image. Access these configurations only
through the CLI commands for configuration management, history, and rollback. Direct modification or
deletion of these files can result in lost router configurations.
Reloading a Failed Configuration
If the router displays a configuration failure message when you attempt to commit a configuration
change, the configuration changes are not lost. While you remain in global configuration mode or
administration configuration mode, you can load the configuration chang es into the target configuration,
correct the errors, and commit the changes. To load a failed configuration, go to global configuration or
administration configuration mode and enter the load configuration failed commit command, as shown
in the following example:
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# load configuration failed commit
RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# show configuration
