You can create a maintenance mode profile file before you put the switch in maintenance mode or you can
allow the system to create a maintenance mode profile file when you enter the [no] system mode maintenance
command.
Use the snapshot command to capture the running states of selected features and to store them on the persistent
storage media.
Snapshots are useful to compare the state of a switch before it went into maintenance mode and after it came
back to normal mode. The snapshot process consists of three parts:
•
Creating a snapshot of the states of a few preselected features on the switch and storing them on the
persistent storage media.
•
Listing the snapshots taken at various time intervals and managing them.
•
Comparing snapshots and showing the summary and details of each feature.
