DT-6X60 User's Manual - Platform (Build 2.0)
The back and retr commands remember the previous SRV, LOC, and FILE values and provide
them next time as defaults for the SRV, LOC, and FILE prompts.

BACKUP AND

RELOAD
U
TILITIES
A new set of utilities is available which allows the mechanization of the backup and retrieve/reload
processes. They are called DT6backup and DT6reload respectively. The advantages are:
The DT-6XXX administrator can write a simple script with an easily remembered name
containing the command lines calling these utilities and schedule the script to run
periodically. That way the backup and or reloads can be executed when system activity is
not high. Also the administrator does not have to remember to run the script.
The administrator does not have to manually log into each DT-6X60, which can consume
much time and is prone to typing errors etc., nor does the administrator have to remember
the individual passwords for each DT-6X60 or the order and delimitation flags for the
parameters on the command lines.
The DT6backup and DTreload utilities use the back and retrieve command respectively, and
hence can be used also with older releases of DT-6X60 platform software.
More detail about these utilities can be obtained from the combined release notes/user manual for
the utilities, which is available for download from the Datatek Applications web site via the support
link.

DT-6X60 -
REBOOT
Syntax: reboot
After the DT-6X60 is properly configured with system parameters, it must be restarted in order for
the IP configuration to take effect. This is performed with the reboot command from the system
console. The reboot command has no arguments. It will restart the system so that any new global
parameters may take effect.

SNMP
Syntax: snmp get=<communities> set=<communities>
trap=<community> dest=<IP address> cug=[+|]<cuglist>
(prompted: sysName=<esc> sysLoc=<esc> sysContact=<esc>)
The snmp command is only allowed when the unit is logged in.
The snmp command configures or verifies the parameters needed to permit the SNMP agent to
communicate with a manager using closed user groups and user-specified communities for gets
and sets. The DT-6X60 will not respond to other community names. The <communities>
parameter accepts a comma-separated list of community names. The communities configured for
set also work for get, so they need not be repeated in the get parameter. The closed user group
option (cug) defines which IP addresses are allowed to do gets and sets. Values are saved in
non-volatile memory. There is only one trap=<community>. The dest=<IP address> parameter
configures the IP address of the target trap manager. The snmp vfy command (same as vfy
snmp) displays the current settings of SNMP configuration.

The snmp command prompts for all parameters not specified on the command line. Simply type
snmp in order to add or change any parameters. If the present value that is printed is to be
retained, hit newline in response to the prompt. In order to add to an existing list for the set and
get communities, type in the old values as well as the additions for that parameter when prompted.
