How User Settings Are Saved
Unlike other settings on the switch, user settings configured through the user and password commands 
are saved to the switch configuration automatically. These settings are saved in real time in the local user 
database.
At bootup, the switch reads the database file for user information (rather than the boot.cfg file). The write 
memory, copy running-config working, or configuration snapshot commands are not required to save 
user or password settings over a reboot.
Note. Password settings configured through the user password-policy commands are not automatically 
saved to the switch configuration. 
For information about using the write memory, copy running-config working, and configuration 
snapshot commands, see Chapter 4, “Managing CMM Directory Content,” Chapter 6, “Working With 
Configuration Files,” and the OmniSwitch CLI Reference Guide.
