does not save the configuration
file at a specified interval.

file-number
Optional
The default number is 5.
NOTE:
• You can only execute the saving and rollback operations on the master. To make the configuration
rollback take effect on the new master after an active/standby switchover, execute the archive
configuration location command to specify the path and filename prefix of the saved confi
g
uration file
on both the master and slave switches. Before the execution of this command, ensure that the specified
path is available on both the master and the slave switches, and that the path does not include any
member ID.
• If the undo archive configuration location command is executed, the running configuration cannot be
saved either manually or automatically, and the configuration is restored to the default by executing the
archive configuration interval and archive configuration max commands, meanwhile, the saved
configuration files are cleared.
• The value of the
file-number argument is determined by memory space. Set a comparatively small value
for the
file-number argument if the available memory space is small.
Enabling automatic saving of the running configuration
You can configure the system to save the running configuration at a specified interval, and use the
display archive configuration command to view the filenames and save time of the saved configuration
files. This enables you to easily roll back the current configuration to a previous configuration state.
Configure an automatic save interval based on the storage media's performance and the frequency of
configuration modification using the following guidelines:
• If the configuration of the device does not change frequently, manually save the running
configuration as needed
• If you use a high-speed storage media and the configuration of the device changes frequently, set
a shorter saving interval.
Follow these steps to enable automatic saving of the running configuration:
