Backing Up the Configuration
Back up the configuration regularly to ensure that a complete configuration is available for downloading to a replacement
switch.
Perform the following steps to back up the configuration:
1. Log on to the device as the admin user.
2. Back up the device configuration to an FTP server by entering the configUpload command as shown in the
following example.
device:FID128:admin> configupload
Protocol (scp, ftp, sftp, local) [ftp]:
Server Name or IP Address [host]: 192.0.2.0
User Name [user]: anonymous
Path/Filename [<home dir>/config.txt]: home/dumps/config.fid100.txt
Section (all|chassis|FID# [all]):
configUpload complete: All selected config parameters are uploaded
2020/03/05-23:57:59, [CONF-1001], 130, FID 128, INFO, device, configUpload completed successfully for all.
This command uploads the device configuration to the server, making it available for downloading to a replacement
device if necessary.
NOTE
If Virtual Fabrics (VF) is enabled, you need to use the configupload -vf command only once to upload
configuration for the virtual fabric (all logical switches configured on the device). For more information, refer
to the discussion of configupload/download in the Brocade Fabric OS Administration Guide.
Powering Down the Device
Perform the following steps to power down the device:
1. Shut down the Fabric OS software using the sysShutdown command.
2. Identify the power-on switches in the nonport-side of the device.
3. Power off both power supplies by setting each power switch to the “O” position.
4. Unplug the power cables from the power source before servicing the device or FRUs.
All devices are returned to their initial state the next time the switch is powered on.
