wafs
To backup, 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.
backup-config Copies current WAFS-related configuration information to a file.
filename 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 Loads saved WAFS-related configuration information from a file.
filename (Optional) 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 (Optional) Displays the range of time that the system report is to cover.
from_date Start date of information in the generated system report.
to_date End date of information in the generated system report.
filename Name of the file, in xxxx.tar.gz format, in which the system information is
