The functions of these commands are described here:

ˆ

Copy Active Card Configuration to Standby Card - This command is
used to copy the temporary master configuration file from DRAM in the
active management card to DRAM in the standby card.

ˆ

Save Current Configuration of Standby Card - This command instructs
the standby card to copy its master configuration file from DRAM to
flash memory for permanent storage.

To use the commands, select the Copy command and wait for the active
card to send its file to the standby card. Then select the Save command.

In all likelihood, you’ll probably never use these commands because the
active and standby management cards perform these functions
automatically as part of their normal operations. About the only situation
where you might feel inclined to use them is if you suspect that the active
management card is failing and, prior to removing it from the chassis, you
want to manually update the configuration file on the standby card, to
insure that it has the latest settings.
