Configuration archives are saved with the file name format prefix_serial number.cfg, for example, 20080620archive_1.cfg and 20080620archive_2.cfg. The serial number is automatically assigned from 1 to 1000, increasing by 1. After the serial number reaches 1000, it restarts from 1. After you change the file directory or file name prefix, or reboot the device, the old configuration archives are regarded as common configuration files, the configuration archive counter resets, and the display archive configuration command no longer displays them. The serial number for new configuration archives starts at 1. After the maximum number of configuration archives is reached, the system deletes the oldest archive for the new archive. Configuration guidelines In an IRF fabric, the configuration archive function saves the running configuration only on the master device. To make sure the system can archive the running configuration after a master/subordinate switchover, create the directory on all IRF members. Configuration procedure To configure configuration archive parameters: Step 1. Enter system view. Command system-view 2. Configure the directory and archive configuration location file name prefix for archiving directory filename-prefix the running configuration. filename-prefix 3. (Optional.) Set the maximum number of configuration archive configuration max file-number archives. Remarks N/A Do not include member ID information in the directory name. By default, no path or file name prefix is set for configuration archives, and the system does not regularly save configuration. IMPORTANT: The undo form of this command disables both manual and automatic configuration archiving, restores the default settings for the archive configuration interval and archive configuration max commands, and deletes all saved configuration archives. The default number is 5. Change the setting depending on the amount of storage available on the device. Enabling automatic configuration archiving To avoid decreasing system performance, follow these guidelines when you configure automatic configuration archiving: • If the device configuration does not change frequently, manually archive the running configuration as needed. 86
