Retaining the Configuration of the Flexible Flash Controller

You can copy the configuration of a given slot in the Cisco Flexible Flash card to the other slot. However, the slot from which the configuration is copied from must be of the SDK523 type. You can retain the configuration in the following situations:

There are two unpaired SD cards

The server is operating from a single SD card, and an unpaired SD card is in the other slot.

One SD card supports firmware version 1.2.253, and the other SD card is either unpartitioned or supports firmware version 1.2.247.
