Delete an archive file using the command archive delete from CONFIG ARCHIVE mode. Viewing and Editing the Contents of an Archive File You cannot view or edit the contents of archived files. FTOS disallows these functions to ensure that archived configurations are error-free when they are used in a replace or rollback function. You can, however, copy the file to another location using the command archive backup, and then view and edit the copy. If you copy the file to another location on FTOS, then you can view the contents of the file using the command show file, as shown in the following example.
