Save the Running-Configuration

The running-configuration contains the current system configuration. Dell Networking recommends coping your running-configuration to the startup-configuration.

The system uses the startup-configuration during boot-up to configure the system. The startup-configuration is stored in the internal flash on the IOM by default, but you can save it to a USB flash device or a remote server.
The commands in this section follow the same format as those commands in the Copy Files to and from the System section but use the filenames startup-config and running-config. These commands assume that current directory is the internal flash, which is the system default.
  • Save the running-config to the startup-configuration on the internal flash. EXEC Privilege mode copy running-config startup-config
  • Save the running-configuration on the IOM. EXEC Privilege mode copy running-config usbflash: //filename
  • Save the running-configuration to an FTP server. EXEC Privilege mode copy running-config ftp: // username:password@{hostip | hostname}/filepath/ filename
  • Save the running-configuration to a TFTP server. EXEC Privilege mode copy running-config tftp: //{hostip | hostname}/ filepath/filename
  • Save the running-configuration to an SCP server. EXEC Privilege mode copy running-config scp: //{hostip | hostname}/ filepath/filename
    • NOTE: When copying to a server, you can only use a host name if you have configured a DNS server.
  • Save the running-configuration to the startup-configuration on the internal flash of the primary RPM. Then copy the new startup-config file to the external flash of the primary RPM. EXEC Privilege mode copy running-config startup-config duplicate

Dell Networking OS Behavior: If you create a startup-configuration on an RPM and then move the RPM to another chassis, the startup-configuration is stored as a backup file (with the extension .bak), and a new, empty startup-configuration file is created. To restore your original startup-configuration in this situation, overwrite the new startup-configuration with the original one using the copy startup-config.bak startup-config command.
