Copying the RUNNING DIRECTORY to the Certified Directory
When the RUNNING CONFIGURATION is saved to the RUNNING DIRECTORY, the switch’s
RUNNING DIRECTORY and certified directories are now different. This difference, if the CMM
reboots, causes the switch to boot and run from the certified directory. When the switch is booted and run
from the certified directory, changes made to switch functionality cannot be saved. The boot.cfg file saved
in the RUNNING DIRECTORY needs to be saved to the certified directory, as shown:
In this diagram, the working directory is the RUNNING DIRECTORY:
1 The switch boots from the certified directory and changes are made to the RUNNING CONFIGURA-
TION.
2 The RUNNING DIRECTORY is changed from certified to a different directory such as working.
-> modify running-directory working
3 The changes are saved to the working directory in the boot.cfg file.
-> write memory
4 The contents of the working directory are saved to the certified directory.
-> copy running certified
