Configuring the SP Switch Router Adapter

Step 5. Reset card to install files

Step 5. Reset card to install files

To install the SP Switch Router Adapter configuration files, first save the files and then reset the SP Switch Router Adapter card.

Save the files after you complete the system parameters and again after you configure the media cards and any network services such as filtering or dynamic routing.

#grwrite -v

#grreset <card_slot_number>

Saving configuration files

Use the grwrite command to save the /etc configuration directory from RAM to the internal flash device. This preserves the configuration files over a reboot.

# grwrite -v

With the /etc directory saved, use the grsnapshot command to save an alternate version of the operating software to the internal flash that will be based upon the configuration currently running on the internal flash device:

#grsnapshot -sP=revision,version -dP=revision,version

In the command, -sPspecifies the source as primary internal flash (the SP Switch Router has only a primary internal flash), and -dpspecifies the destination device as the primary internal flash. A specific configuration is defined as a release and version. For example, if the current operating release is 1.4.20, then the source might be 1.4.20.ibm,default and you may name the saved configuration as 1.4.20.ibm,backup.

For more information about these commands, see the GRF Reference Guide.
