Verifying available flash space on the management module before an image is copied
3
• Copy a startup-config file between flash memory on the management module and a TFTP
server
• Copy the running-config to a flash card or a TFTP server
• Load a running-config from a flash card or TFTP server into the running-config on the device
NOTE
Since the copy options require you to explicitly specify the flash card, you can perform a copy
regardless of which flash card is on the currently active management module.
Copying files from one flash card to the other
To copy a file from one flash card to the other, enter the following command.
Brocade# copy slot1 slot2 sales.cfg
Syntax: copy from-card to-card [/from-dir-path/]from-name [/to-dir-path/][to-name]
For the from-card and to-card parameters, you can specify slot1 or slot2.
The command shown in the example copies a file from the flash card in slot 1 to the flash card in
slot 2. In this case, the software uses the same name for the original file and for the copy.
Optionally, you can specify a different file name for the copy.
Copying files between a flash card and flash memory
To copy a file from a flash card to the primary area in flash memory, enter a command similar to the
following.
Brocade# copy slot1 flash nmpr02200.bin primary
Syntax: copy slot1 | slot2 flash [/from-dir-path/]from-name monitor | primary | secondary
To copy a file from flash memory to a flash card, enter a command similar to the following.
Brocade# copy flash slot2 nmpr02200.bin primary
Syntax: copy flash slot1 | slot2 source-name monitor | primary | secondary | startup-config
[dest-name]
The command in this example copies a Brocade Multi-Service IronWare image file from the primary
area in flash memory onto the flash card in slot 2. In this case, the software uses the same name
for the source file and for the destination file. Optionally, you can specify a different file name for
the destination file.
Copying software images between active and standby management modules
To copy the monitor image from flash memory of the active management module to flash memory
of the standby module, enter the following command.
Brocade# copy flash flash monitor standby
To copy the Brocade Multi-Service IronWare image from the secondary location in flash memory on
the active management module to the primary location in flash memory, enter the following
command.
Brocade# copy flash flash primary
Syntax: copy flash flash primary [standby]
