600Boot Prompt Commands

create

Creates a new boot profile. (For information about boot profiles, see show on page 596.)

Syntax create

Defaults The new boot profile has the same settings as the currently active boot profile by default.

Access Boot prompt.

Usage A WSS can have up to four boot profiles. The boot profiles are stored in slots, numbered 0 through 3. When you create a new profile, the system uses the next available slot for the profile. If all four slots already contain profiles and you try to create a fifth profile, the switch displays a message advising you to change one of the existing profiles instead.

To make a new boot profile the currently active boot profile, use the next command. To change boot parameter settings, use the change command.

Examples The following command creates a new boot profile in slot 1 on a WSS that currently has only one boot profile, in slot 0:

boot> create

BOOT Index: 1

BOOT TYPE: c

DEVICE: boot1:

FILENAME: default

FLAGS: 00000000

OPTIONS: run=nos;boot=0

delete

Removes the currently active boot profile. (For information about boot profiles, see show on page 596.)

Syntax delete

Defaults None. Access Boot prompt.

Usage When you type the delete command, the next-lower numbered boot profile becomes the active profile. For example, if the currently active profile is number 3, profile number 2 becomes active after you type delete to delete profile 3. You cannot delete boot profile 0.
