Listing the Secondary MPX Files

The

sls

command lists the files in the secondary

MPX

module. This is similar to the

ls

command; however, it lists files in the secondary

MPX

. To list files in the secondary

MPX

,

enter

sls

at the system prompt. The following is a typical example.

/flash/esm.img

/flash has

1071449 bytes free.

/simm Not present.

The

sls

command lists every file in the secondary

MPX

’s flash memory followed by its size (in

bytes), creation date, and creation time. The three-letter file name suffix indicates the type of
file which includes configuration (

cnf

and

cfg

), command (

cmd

), and image (

img

). The image

file suffix can be changed for both the primary and secondary

MPXs

with the

nisuf

command,

which is described in Setting the Load Suffix on page 6-14.

Transferring a File to the Secondary MPX

The

mpmstore

command transfers a file in the flash memory of the primary

MPX

to the flash

memory of the secondary

MPX

. To use this command, enter

mpmstore

, followed by a space, a

slash (

/

), the name of the flash directory, another slash (

/

), and the name of the file you want

to transfer.

For example, to transfer the file

mpm.log

from the

/flash

directory on the primary

MPX

to the

secondary

MPX

, for example, you would enter

mpmstore /flash/mpm.log

at the system prompt. The following will be displayed.

Transferring...

If the file already exists on the target

MPX

, something similar to the following message will be

displayed.

File mpm.log exists on slot 2

Use the

mpmreplace

command, which is described in Replacing a File on the Secondary MPX

on page 6-12, to replace a file that already exists.
