-all
To upload all of the system configuration, including the chassis section and all switch sections for all
logical switches.
NOTE
Use this parameter when obtaining a complete capture of the switch configuration in a switch that has
Virtual Fabrics mode disabled.
-chassis To upload only the chassis section of the system configuration file.
-switch
To upload the switch configuration only, if Virtual Fabrics mode is disabled.
Configuration file format
The configuration file is divided into three areas: the header, the chassis section, and one or more
logical-switch sections.
Chassis section
There is only one chassis section within a configuration. It defines configuration data for chassis
components that affect the entire system, not just one individual logical switch. The chassis section is
included in non-Virtual Fabric modes only if you use the configUpload -all command.
The chassis section specifies characteristics for the following software components:
• FC Routing - Fibre Channel Routing
• Chassis configuration - Chassis configuration
• FCOE_CH_CONF - FCoE chassis configuration
• UDROLE_CONF - User-defined role configuration
• LicensesDB - License Database (slot-based)
• DMM_WWN - Data migration manager World Wide Name configuration
• Licenses - (Feature-based) Licenses configuration
• AGWWN_MAPPING_CONF - Access Gateway WWN mapping configuration
• LicensesLservc - Sentinel License configuration
• GE blade mode - GigE Mode configuration
• FWD CHASSIS CFG - Fabric Watch configuration
• FRAME LOG - Frame log configuration (enable/disable)
• DMM_TB - Data migration manager configuration
• MOTD - Message of the day
Switch section
There is always at least one switch section for the default switch or a switch that has Virtual Fabrics
mode disabled, and there are additional sections corresponding to each additionally defined logical
switch instance on a switch with Virtual Fabrics mode enabled. This data is switch-specific and affects
only that logical switch behavior.
The switch section of the configuration file contains information for all of the following:
• Boot parameters
• Configuration
• Bottleneck configuration
• Flow Vision configuration
