How to perform Configupload on a Brocade SAN Switch using REST API?

Hello aishwaryabhosale,

Which model switch do you have and what is your current FOS on the switch?

Hello DELL- Sam L,

We have multiple models of Gen5 and Gen6 hardware such as 8510-8, 8510-4, DS-6510, DS-6520, DS-6620 etc. The fabric OS version is 8.2.3

Thanks

Hello aishwaryabhosale,

Thanks for the info. Let me look into this to see what I can find out.

Hi Sam, 

That would be really useful, I'm also having the same issue, we are running GEN 6 switches on FOS v9.1.1, we I run the rest/brocade-module-version cmd, I do see a module for configuploads (below) 

brocade-operation-configupload
1.0.0
/rest/operations/configupload

But there's very little information on the XML syntax needed to0 perform the task 

https://techdocs.broadcom.com/us/en/fibre-channel-networking/fabric-os/fabric-os-rest-api/9-1-x/v24113756/brocade-operation-configupload-9-1-0.html

unlike for example supportsave, you do get the request body information needed

Hello DELL- Sam L,

Did you get information on this? How this API can be used?

Thanks
Aishwarya

Hello aishwaryabhosale,

I have not gotten any further information on this as of today.

Hello aishwaryabhosale,

Looking at the steps it looks like it should work, however I haven’t come across any cases where customers have used those steps.  We recommend to run configupload via telnet or switch web interface.  Here is a link to a kb for those steps. https://dell.to/42b7owM
