7210 SAS-MXP, R6, R12, S, SX, T BASIC SYSTEM
CONFIGURATION GUIDE RELEASE 22.9.R1
File system management
• If the license is purchased for the 7210 SAS-Sx 1/10GE, 7210 SAS-S 1/10GE, 7210 SAS-Sx 10/100GE,
7210 SAS-R6, and 7210 SAS-R12, these platforms are factory-shipped with the boot.tim and starter
BOF on cf2:\. The user can choose to copy these files to the internal flash cf1:\, if need be.
•
The boot.tim and BOF can be stored on one of these locations: cf1:\ or cf2:\ or uf1:\. The
bof.cfg is stored in the same location as the boot loader (boot.tim) used to boot the system. For
example, if the boot loader (boot.tim) on cf2:\ is used to boot the system, the BOF created during
auto-init or manual intervention during first-time boot will be created on cf2:\ and used subsequently.
•
TiMOS images (both.tim) can be stored in one of these locations: cf1:\ or cf2:\ or uf1:\, with
appropriate configuration of the BOF (that is, primary, secondary, and tertiary locations pointing to the
appropriate place).
• The ndx and sdx files are generated at the location specified in the BOF parameter of the configuration
file. If the user does not specify the location in the BOF, the ndx and sdx files are in the same location
as the default configuration file. The default configuration file is created in the same location as the
TiMOS image used to boot the system. For example, if no configuration file location is specified
in the BOF and the TiMOS image (both.tim) located in uf1:\ is used to boot the system, the
default configuration file, the index file, the sdx file, and nvsys.info file created on uf1:\ and
used subsequently. If the user specifies cf2:\ as the location of the configuration file in the BOF, the
configuration file, the index file, the sdx file, and nvsys.info file are created on cf2:\ and used
subsequently.
For more information about the use of storage locations on 7210 SAS-R6 and 7210 SAS-R12 when using
redundant CPM configuration, see Configuration guidelines for synchronization of active and standby CPM
on 7210 SAS-R6 and 7210 SAS-R12.
3.1.4 Configuration guidelines for storing the TiMOS, boot.tim, bof.cfg, ndx, sdx, and
nvsys.info file
The following are configuration guidelines for storing files:
•
Store the boot.tim and bof.cfg on cf1:\. Create a backup of the boot.tim and bof.cfg on
cf2:\ or uf1:\.
•
Store the both.tim, configuration file (and as a result, the ndx, sdx, and nvsys.info) on cf2:\
. Create regular backups of these files in one of the following locations: cf2:\ or uf1:\ or create a
backup on SAM (Service Access Manager) or the network management station.
3.1.5 URLs
The arguments for the 7210 SAS file commands are modeled after standard universal resource locator
(URL). A URL refers to a file (a file-url) or a directory (a directory-url).
7210 SAS OS supports operations on both the local file system and on remote files. For the purposes of
categorizing the applicability of commands to local and remote file operations, URLs are divided into three
types: local, ftp and tftp. The syntax for each of the URL types is listed in the following table.
