Managing the Configuration File
The configuration is the customized set of parameters that you have selected to run on the switch.
Table 12 describes some of the key areas of configuration file management in ExtremeWare XOS.
For more information about saving, uploading, and downloading configuration files, see “Saving
Configuration Changes” on page 426 .
Managing ExtremeWare XOS Processes
ExtremeWare XOS consists of a number of cooperating processes running on the switch. With process
control, under certain conditions, you can stop and start processes, restart failed processes, examine
information about the processes, and update the software for a specific process or set of processes.

Task Behavior
Configuration file database ExtremeWare XOS supports saving a configuration file into any named file and
supports more than two saved configurations.
For example, you can download a configuration file from a network TFTP
server and save that file as primary, secondary, or with a user-defined name.
You also select where to save the configuration: primary or secondary
partition, or another space.
The file names primary and secondary exist for backward compatibility with
ExtremeWare.
Downloading configuration files ExtremeWare XOS uses the
tftp
command to download configuration files to
the switch from the network TFTP server.
For more information about downloading configuration files, see “Using TFTP
to Download the Configuration” on page 428 .
Uploading configuration files ExtremeWare XOS uses the
tftp
command to upload configuration files from
the switch to the network TFTP server.
For more information about uploading configuration files, see “Using TFTP to
Upload the Configuration” on page 427 .
