Creating a Configuration Archive

To copy an existing archive to another one, the destination archive name must comply with the archive naming convention. In case the source file does not exist in the archive repository, the full path must be used. As per the archive naming convention, the archive names must be prefixed with a pre-defined string ‘ICX7K_ARCHIVE_’. An archive can be created from the running configuration. Archives can be created in the following ways:
  1. Enter the following command to copy an archive to another archive.
    cfg-archive management copy ICX7K_ARCHIVE_22 to ICX7K_ARCHIVE_25
  2. From the system running configuration: Copy the running configuration to an archive ICX7K_ARCHIVE_03, using the following command.
    device# cfg-archive management copy-running-config ICX7K_ARCHIVE_03
  3. Create an archive from the startup configuration saved in startup-config.txt using the below command.
    device# cfg-archive management copy /fast_iron/startup-config.txt to ICX7K_ARCHIVE_02
