To cancel the copy operation initiated by another switch, use the following command:
switch# system startup-config abort
To cancel the operation locally and throughout the fabric, enter Ctrl-c on the console or telnet session
of the initiator switch.
See the
Saving Startup Configurations in the Fabric
As of Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 2.1(1a), you can use Cisco Fabric Services (CFS) to instruct the
other switches in the fabric to save their configurations to their local NVRAM using the following copy
command:
switch# copy running-config startup-config fabric
If any remote switch in the fabric fails to complete the copy running-config startup-config fabric process,
Note
the request is discarded on the initiator switch and the failure errors are displayed in the initiator switch CLI
session.
You can use the show cfs application command to verify that the Fabric Startup Configuration Manager
(FSCM) application is enabled.
switch# show cfs application
