How to Recover a Previous Configuration
When you save a new configuration, the system automatically backs up the old configuration in the
directory
tffs0:system/prevconf/
. Up to nine versions of the startup configuration file are saved,
namely
config.tx1-config.tx9
, where
config.tx1
is the most recently saved file.
You can view the old startup configuration files using the CLI command
more
.
Restoring a previous startup configuration means renaming the file so it overwrites the startup
configuration (
config.txt
) file.
DETAILED STEPS
Step 1
At the SCE 2000# prompt, type
more tffs0:system/prevconf/config.txt
to view the configuration file.
The system displays the configuration information stored in the file.
Step 2
Read the configuration information to make sure it is the configuration you want to restore.
Note that you cannot undo the configuration restore command.
Step 3
Type
copy tffs0:system/prevconf/config.tx1 tffs0:system/config.txt
.
The system sets the startup configuration to the configuration from config.tx1.
Example for Recovering a Previous Configuration
The following example displays a saved configuration file and then restores the file to overwrite the
current configuration.
