Configuring configuration archive parameters
Before archiving the running configuration, either manually or automatically, you must configure a file
directory and file name prefix for configuration archives.
Configuration archives are saved with the file name format prefix_serial number.cfg, for example,
20080620archive_1.cfg and 20080620archive_2.cfg. The serial number is automatically assigned
from 1 to 1000, increasing by 1. After the serial number reaches 1000, it restarts from 1.
After you change the file directory or file name prefix, or reboot the device, all of the following events
occur:
•
The old configuration archives are regarded as common configuration files.
•
The configuration archive counter is reset.
•
The display archive configuration command no longer displays the old configuration
archives.
•
The serial number for new configuration archives starts at 1.
After the maximum number of configuration archives is reached, the system deletes the oldest
archive to make room for the new archive.
Configuration guidelines
In an IRF fabric, the configuration archive function saves the running configuration only on the
master device. To make sure the system can archive the running configuration after a
master/subordinate switchover, create the directory on all IRF members.
