the CD. The virtual-blade n save command saves a snapshot of the current virtual blade memory state

and saves it to /local1/vbs. The virtual-blade n kill-save-state command deletes the memory snapshot.

bladenumber Number of the virtual blade. Valid values depend on the hardware

capabilities. If you do not specify a number, the command is applied to all

virtual blades.
