CAUTION
Editing of the uploaded file is unsupported and can result in system errors if an edited file is
subsequently downloaded.
If you have the chassis role permissions added to your user account, then the following options are
available whether you are uploading or downloading a configuration file:
Configuration file format
The configuration file is divided into three areas: the header, the chassis section, and one or more
switch sections. If you upgrade the firmware on any existing switches from pre-Fabric OS v6.2.0 to
v6.2.0, then you must perform the configUpload command to upload both chassis and switch
information.
CAUTION
If you have Virtual Fabrics enabled, you must follow the procedure in “Configuration management
for Virtual Fabrics” on page 184 to restore the logical switches.
