BACKUP
NOW
atmf backup now
Overview
This command initiates an immediate AMF backup of either all AMF members, or
a selected AMF member. Note that this backup information is stored in the
external media on the master node of the device on which this command is run,
even though the selected AMF member may not be a master node.
Note that this command can only be run on an AMF master node.
Syntax
atmf backup now [
<nodename>
]
Default
A backup is initiated for all nodes on the AMF (but stored on the master nodes).
Mode
Privileged Exec
Usage
Although this command will select the AMF node to be backed-up, it can only be
run from any AMF master node.
NOTE
:
The backup produced will be for the selected node but the backed-up config will
reside on the external media of the AMF master node on which the command was run.
However, this process will result in the information on one master being more
up-to-date. To maintain concurrent backups on both masters, you can apply the
backup now command to the master working-set. This is shown in Example 4 below.
Example 1
In this example, an AMF member has not been assigned a host name. The
following command is run on the AMF_Master_2 node to immediately backup the
device that is identified by its MAC address of 0016.76b1.7a5e:
AMF_Master_2#
atmf backup now host_0016_76b1_7a5e
NOTE
:
When a host name is derived from its MAC address, the syntax format entered
changes from XXXX.XXXX.XXXX to XXXX_XXXX_XXXX.
Example 2
In this example, an AMF member has the host name,
office_annex
. The following
command will immediately backup this device:
AMF_Master_2#
atmf backup now office_annex
This command is initiated on the device’s master node named
AMF_Master_2
and initiates an immediate backup on the device named
office_annex
.
Parameter
Description
<nodename>
or
<
hostname
>
The name of the AMF member to be backed up, as set by the
command
on page 249. Where no name has been assigned
to this device, then you must use the default name, which is the word
“host”, then an underscore, then (without a space) the MAC address of
the device to be backed up. For example host_0016_76b1_7a5e.
Note that the node-name appears as the command Prompt when in
Privileged Exec mode.
