ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 supports only the Summit X450 family of switches and the BlackDiamond 8800 series switch.
ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 Command Reference Guide
271
When specifying a local filename, the switch permits only the following characters:
●
Alphabetical letters, upper case and lower case (A-Z, a-z)
●
Numerals (0-9)
●
Period ( . )
●
Dash ( - )
●
Underscore ( _ )
When naming a local or remote file, remember the requirements listed above.
Internal Memory Card and Core Dump Files.
If you delete a core dump file from the system, that file is
unavailable.
If you configure the switch to send core dump (debug) information to the internal memory card, specify
the
internal-memory
option to remove/delete the specified core dump file.
For information about configuring and sending core dump information to the internal memory card, see
the
configure debug core-dumps
and
save debug tracefiles memorycard
commands.
You can use the * wildcard to delete core dump files from the internal memory card.
If you configure the switch to write core dump files to the internal memory card and attempt to
download a new software image, you might have insufficient space to complete the image download. If
this occurs, you must decide whether to continue the software download or move or delete the core
dump files from the internal memory. For example, if you have a modular switch with an external
memory card installed with space available, transfer the files to the external memory card. On the
Summit X450 family of switches, transfer the files from the internal memory card to a TFTP server. This
frees up space on the internal memory card while keeping the core dump files.
Modular Switches Only.
This command also replicates the action from the primary MSM to the backup
MSM. For example, if you delete a file on the primary MSM, the same file on the backup MSM is
deleted.
For the
memorycard
option, this command removes/deletes an existing file on the card, including core
dump files if configured. See the section “
Internal Memory Card and Core Dump Files
” for information
about core dump files.
You can use the * wildcard to delete all of a particular file type from the external memory card;
currently running and in use files are not deleted.
BlackDiamond 10808 Switch Only.
In ExtremeWare 10.1, this command was available only on the
primary MSM. For example, if you deleted a file on the primary MSM, the same file on the backup
MSM was not deleted.
Example
The following command removes the configuration file named
Activeb91.cfg
from the system:
rm Activeb91.cfg
The following command removes all of the core dump files stored on the internal memory card:
rm internal-memory *
