Using the ExtremeWare XOS File System
ExtremeWare XOS 11.3 Concepts Guide

Example
The following command displays all of the configuration and policy files stored on your switch:
ls
The following is sample output from this command:
total 424
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 50 Jul 30 14:19 hugh.pol
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 94256 Jul 23 14:26 hughtest.cfg
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 100980 Sep 23 09:16 megtest.cfg
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 35 Jun 29 06:42 newpolicy.pol
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 100980 Sep 23 09:17 primary.cfg
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 94256 Jun 30 17:10 roytest.cfg
On a modular switch, the following command displays all of the configuration and policy files stored
on the external memory card:
ls memorycard
The following is sample output from this command:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root 0 15401865 Mar 30 00:03 bd10K-11.2.0.13.xos
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root 0 10 Mar 31 09:41 test-1.pol
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root 0 10 Apr 4 09:15 test.pol
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root 0 10 Mar 31 09:41 test_1.pol
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root 0 223599 Mar 31 10:02 v11_1_3.cfg
Deleting Files From the Switch
To delete a configuration or policy file from your system, use the following command:
rm {memorycard} <file-name>
Where the following is true:
● memorycard—Specifies the removable external compact flash card. (This parameter is available only
on modular switches.)
● file-name—Specifies the name of the configuration or policy file to delete.
When you delete a configuration or policy file from the system, make sure you specify the appropriate
file extension. For example, if you want to delete a policy file, specify the filename and .pol. After you
delete a file, it is unavailable to the system.
When you delete a file from the switch, a message similar to the following appears:
Remove testpolicy.pol from switch? (y/n)
Enter y to remove the file from your system. Enter n to cancel the process and keep the file on your
system.
Modular Switches Only
This command also replicates the action from the primary MSM to the backup MSM. For example, if
you delete a file on the primary MSM, the same file on the backup MSM is deleted.
