configdownload command.
„ To run commands saving the setting of the FC Switch Module, an FTP
server is required additionally. Prepare a proper FTP server before saving.

and IP address of the FC Switch Module. After executing configdownload,
change them by using respective commands.
„ Saving of settings on FC Switch Modules is required in system recovery
including device replacement due to a system fault. If a new FC Switch
Module is installed or some setting on an FC Switch Module is changed,
save the settings on the FC Switch Module.
