Due to the size limit of the flash memory, the switch supports only two
operation code files. However, you can have as many diagnostic code files
and configuration files as available flash memory space allows.
In the system flash memory, one file of each type must be set as the
start-up file. During a system boot, the diagnostic and operation code files
set as the start-up file are run, and then the start-up configuration file is
loaded.
Note that configuration files should be downloaded using a file name that
reflects the contents or usage of the file settings. If you download directly
to the running-config, the system will reboot, and the settings will have to
be copied from the running-config to a permanent file.
