Figure 1: Rollback Operation
Feature Behavior
The following list describes detailed behavior and CLI usage of the rollback feature:
• The user can create a rollback checkpoint, and later, revert to this checkpoint with minimal 
impacts to services:
admin>rollback# save [comment <comment-string>]
comment-string: an 255 char comment associated with the checkpoint
• Rollback checkpoints include all current operationally active configuration:
− Changes from direct CLI commands in the configuration branch.
− SNMP sets 
• Rollback checkpoints do not include bof configuration. The BOF file (and bof config) is 
not part of a rollback-save or rollback. A rollback does not change any of the bof 
configuration. The BOF contains basic information for the node and does not change 
frequently (mostly during initial commissioning of the node).
• A rollback save feature can be automatically executed (scheduled, for example, monthly) 
using the cron facility of SR-OS.
• The latest rollback checkpoint file uses a suffix of “.rb”. The next latest rollback 
checkpoint file has a suffix of “.rb.1”, the next oldest has a suffix of “rb.2” etc:
file-url.rb    <--- latest rollback file
file-url.rb.1
…
file-url.rb.9  <--- oldest rollback file
