Flash memory and PCMCIA flash card file management commands
2
For example, to change the attribute of a file in slot2 to read-only, if flash memory has the
management focus, enter a command such as the following.
BigIron RX# attrib slot2 ro goodcfg.cfg
Syntax: attrib [slot1 | slot2] ro | rw <file-name>
Specify the slot1 or slot2 keyword to change the attribute of a file on the flash card in slot 1 or slot
2, respectively. If you do not specify one of these keywords, the command applies to the file system
that currently has the management focus.
The ro parameter specifies that the attribute of the file is set to read-only. The rw parameter
specifies that the attribute of the file is set to read-write.
The <file-name> parameter specifies the files for which to change the attribute.
For example, to change the attribute of all files on the flash card in slot 2 to read-only, if flash
memory has the current management focus, enter a command such as the following.
BigIron RX# attrib slot2 ro *.*
Deleting a file
You can delete a file from flash memory or a flash card inserted in slot 1 or slot 2 using the delete
or rm command.
NOTE
The delete or rm command deletes all files in a file system unless you explicitly specify the files you
want to delete.
NOTE
The software does not support an undelete option for the flash memory file system. When deleting
a file from flash memory, make sure you really want to delete the file.
The software attempts to delete the file in the file system that has the current management focus.
By default, flash memory has the management focus. However, you do not need to change the
focus to delete the file in a file system that does not currently have management focus. In this
case, you can specify the /<directory>/<file-name> parameter with the delete or rm command to
delete the file in the desired file system.
For example, to delete a file in flash memory, if flash memory has the current management focus,
enter a command such as the following.
BigIron RX# delete cfg.cfg
If the command is successful, the CLI displays a new command prompt.
Syntax: delete | rm [slot1 | slot2] [<directory>] [<file-name>]
You can enter either delete or rm for the command name.
Specify the slot1 or slot2 keywords to delete the files on the flash card inserted in slot 1 or slot 2,
respectively.
The <directory> parameter specifies the directory in a file system that does not have the current
management focus.
The <file-name> parameter specifies the name of the file that you want to delete.
