83Copying Startup-Config Files to or from a Remote Server
This method of operation means that you cannot preserve different startupconfig files across a
reboot without using remote storage.
The switch allows up to three startup-config files with options for selecting which startup-config file
to use for:
• A fixed reboot policy using a specific startup-config file for a specific boot path (primary or
secondary flash)
• Overriding the current reboot policy on a per-instance basis
