NETGEAR 8800 User Manual When you delete a configuration or policy file from the system, make sure you specify the appropriate file extension. For example, when you want to delete a policy file, specify the filename and .pol. After you delete a file, it is unavailable to the system. When you delete a file from the switch, a message similar to the following appears: Remove testpolicy.pol from switch? (y/n) Enter y to remove the file from your system. Enter n to cancel the process and keep the file on your system. If you attempt to delete an active configuration file (the configuration currently selected to boot the switch), the switch displays an error similar to the following: Error: Cannot remove current selected active configuration. For more information about configuring core dump files and managing the core dump files stored on your switch, see Appendix C, Troubleshooting. This command also replicates the action from the primary node to the backup node. For example, when you delete a file on the primary node, the same file on the backup node is deleted. For the memorycard option, this command removes/deletes an existing file on the external memory card. Example The following example removes the policy file named newpolicy.pol from the system: rm newpolicy.pol On a modular switch with an external memory card installed, the following command removes the policy file named test.pol from the external memory card: rm memorycard test.pol Managing the Configuration File The configuration is the customized set of parameters that you have selected to run on the switch. Table 16 describes some of the key areas of configuration file management in XCM8800. 104 | Chapter 4. Managing the XCM8800 Software
