wafs
To back up, restore, or create a system report about the Wide Area File Services (WAFS)-related network
configuration, plus the configurations of file servers, printers, users, and so forth, on a WAE, use the
wafs EXEC command.
wafs {backup-config filename | restore-config filename |
sysreport [filename | date-range from_date end_date filename]}
Note Executing the wafs sysreport command can temporarily impact the performance of your WAE.
Syntax Description
Defaults No default behavior or values.
Command Modes EXEC
Device Modes application-accelerator
Usage Guidelines The wafs backup-config EXEC command is used when back up of basic network configuration is not
sufficient (performed using the copy running-config command), for example, when you want to back
up system configurations before making any changes using the WAAS CLI global configuration mode
and you want to protect the current configuration from loss of data by erroneous operations.
The wafs restore-config automatically performs a reload function. We strongly recommend that you
re-register your WAE on completion of this command.
This wafs command is also useful when backup and system restoration, or generation of a system report,
are not available from the WAAS Central Manager GUI.
Examples The following example shows how to create a backup file of the WAFS configuration information:
WAE# wafs ?
backup-config
filename
Copies current WAFS-related configuration information to a file. Name of
the file, in xxxx.tar.gz format, where you want to save the WAFS
configuration. This file is saved to the /local/local1 directory.
restore-config filename Loads saved WAFS-related configuration information from a file. Name of
the file, in xxxx.tar.gz format, where the desired WAFS configuration
information has been stored. This file should be in the /local/local1
directory.
sysreport Deprecated; use copy sysreport.
date-range from_date
to_date filename
(Optional) Displays the range of time that the system report is to cover.
Specifies start date, end date, and name of the file, in xxxx.tar.gz format, in
which the system information is to be stored.
