Managing the file system This chapter describes how to manage the device's file system, including the storage media, directories and files. Storage medium naming rules A storage medium is named based on the following rules:If a storage medium is the only storage medium of its type on the device, it is named by its type. For example, if the device has only one Flash, the name of the Flash is flash. File name formats When you specify a file, enter the file name in one of the formats shown inTable 18. Table 18 File name formats Format Description Length file-name Specifies a file in the current working directory. 1 to 91 characters path/file-name drive:/[path]/filename Specifies a file in a specific folder in the current working directory. The path argument represents the path to the file. If the file is in a single-level folder, specify the folder name for the argument. If the file is in a nested folder, separate each folder name by a forward slash (/). 1 to 135 characters Specifies a file in a specific storage medium on the device. The drive argument represents the storage medium name. The storage medium on the master is typically flash. The storage medium on a subordinate device is typically slotX#flash, where X represents the member ID of the subordinate device, for example, slot2#flash. To view the correspondence between a device and its member ID, use the display irf command. 1 to 135 characters Example a.cfg indicates a file named a.cfg in the current working directory. This working directory might be on the master device or a subordinate device. test/a.cfg indicates a file named a.cfg in the test folder in the current working directory. flash:/test/a.cfg indicates a file named a.cfg in the test folder in the root directory of the Flash memory on the master. To access the file a.cfg in the root directory of the Flash on the subordinate device with member ID 2, enter slot2#flash:/a.cfg for the file name. 84

Managing the file system
This chapter describes how to manage the device's file system, including the storage media, directories
and files.
Storage medium naming rules
A storage medium is named based on the following rules:If a storage medium is the only storage medium
of its type on the device, it is named by its type. For example, if the device has only one Flash, the name
of the Flash is
flash
.
File name formats
When you specify a file, enter the file name in one of the formats shown inTable 18.

Example
file-name
Specifies a file in the current
working directory.
1 to 91
characters
a.cfg indicates a file named
a.cfg
in the current working directory.
This working directory might be on
the master device or a subordinate
device.
path
/
file-name
Specifies a file in a specific folder
in the current working directory.
The
path
argument represents the
path to the file. If the file is in a
single-level folder, specify the
folder name for the argument. If the
file is in a nested folder, separate
each folder name by a forward
slash (/).
1 to 135
characters
test/a.cfg indicates a file named
a.cfg
in the
test
folder in the current
working directory.
drive
:/[
path
]/
file-
name
Specifies a file in a specific storage
medium on the device.
The
drive
argument represents the
storage medium name.
The storage medium on the master
is typically flash.
The storage medium on a
subordinate device is typically
slotX#flash, where X represents the
member ID of the subordinate
device, for example, slot2#flash.
To view the correspondence
between a device and its member
ID, use the
display irf
command.
1 to 135
characters
flash:/test/a.cfg indicates a file
named
a.cfg
in the
test
folder in the
root directory of the Flash memory
on the master.
To access the file
a.cfg
in the root
directory of the Flash on the
subordinate device with member
ID 2, enter
slot2#flash:/a.cfg
for
the file name.
