Commands for Managing the ExtremeWare XOS Software
ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 supports only the Summit X450 family of switches and the BlackDiamond 8800 series switch.

By making a copy of a core dump file, you can easily compare new debug information with the old file
if needed.
If you configure and enable the switch to send core dump (debug) information to the internal memory
card, specify the
internal-memory option and associated internal-memory name options to copy an
existing core dump file. If you have a modular switch with an external compact clash memory card
installed, you can copy the core dump file to that card.
For information about configuring and sending core dump information to the internal memory card, see
the
configure debug core-dumps and save debug tracefiles memorycard commands.
For more detailed information about core dump files, see Appendix B, “Troubleshooting,” in the
ExtremeWare XOS Concepts Guide.
Modular Switches Only. This command also replicates the action from the primary MSM to the backup
MSM. For example, if you copy a file on the primary MSM, the same file is copied to the backup MSM.
For the
memorycard option, the source and/or destination is the memorycard. You must mount the
memory card for this operation to succeed. The
cp command copies a file from the switch to the
external memory card or a file already on the card. If you copy a file from the switch to the external
memory card, and the new filename is identical to the source file, you do not need to re-enter the
filename.
If you send core dump information to the external memory card, specify the
memorycard option and
associated memorycard name options to copy an existing core dump file. For more information about
core dump files, see “Internal Memory and Core Dump Files” on page 255.
Example
The following command makes a copy of a configuration file named test.cfg and gives the copied file a
new name of test_rev2.cfg:
cp test.cfg test_rev2.cfg
The following command makes a copy of a configuration file named primary.cfg from a modular switch
to the external memory card with the same name, primary.cfg:
cp primary.cfg memorycard
The above command performs the same action as entering the following command:
cp primary.cfg memorycard primary.cfg
