Saving switch configurations on demand

NOTE

Save switch configuration is only supported on Fabric OS switches.

NOTE

This feature requires a Trial or Licensed version.

NOTE

To save switch configuration on more than one switch at a time, you must have the Enhanced Group
Management license.

NOTE

The Management application enables you to save the same switch configuration to the repository
using two methods: on demand (Configure > Configuration > Save) or by defining a schedule
(Configuration > Schedule Backup).

Configuration files are uploaded from the selected switches and stored in individual files. Files are
named with the convention cfg_fabricName_switchName_domainID.

Use this procedure to immediately save switch configurations to the repository. To create a
scheduled back up of switch configurations to the repository, refer to

“Scheduling switch

configuration backup”

on page 530.

1. Select Configure > Configuration > Save Now.

The Save Switch Configurations dialog box displays.
