Description

Use this command to take a configuration snapshot for an RBridge ID in a logical chassis cluster
so that this configuration can be restored later if necessary. The snapshot for the RBridge
specified is stored on all switches in the logical chassis cluster.

Usage Guidelines

The vcs config snapshot commands apply onto to nodes in a logical chassis cluster mode. The
create and restore commands can be issued from any node in the cluster even though the
commands pertain to a specific RBridge ID.

If a snapshot was taken on a node that had been disconnected from the cluster, the cluster will not
have the snapshot. In this situation, you can use the copy snapshot commands to put the
snapshot on the cluster. Refer to “copy snapshot (logical chassis cluster mode)” on page 1634.

Create and restore commands can only be issued from the primary node and not from any other
node.

Examples

To create a snapshot of the configuration on an RBridge with the ID of 10, and to give the name of
the snapshot "snapshot10:"

switch# vcs config snapshot create rbridge-id 10 snapshot snapshot10
