IBM Partner Pavilion BMD00082 manual Apply and Save the Configuration

SmartConnect User’s Guide

Apply and Save the Configuration

The apply and save commands are still needed after the last command (scp ad4.cfg scpadmin@205.178.15.100:putcfg).

Or, instead, you can use the following commands:

>># scp ad4.cfg scpadmin@205.178.15.157 1022:putcfg_apply

>># scp ad4.cfg scpadmin@205.178.15.157 1022:putcfg_apply_save

„The diff command is automatically executed at the end of putcfg to notify the remote client of the difference between the new and the current configurations.

„putcfg_apply runs the apply command after the putcfg is done.

„putcfg_apply_save saves the new configuration to the flash after putcfg_apply is done.

„The putcfg_apply and putcfg_apply_save commands are provided because extra apply and save commands are usually required after a putcfg; however, a SCP session is not in an interactive mode at all.
