Configuration Commands
File System Commands
shutdown
Syntax
[no] shutdown [active] [standby]
[no] shutdown [cflash-id]
Context
file
Description
This command shuts down (unmounts) the specified CPM(s).
Use the no shutdown [active] [standby] command to enable one or both CPM.
Use the no shutdown [cflash-id] command to enable a compact flash (cf1:, cf2:, or cf3:) on the SF/CPM card. The no shutdown command can be issued for a specific slot when no compact flash is present. When a flash card is installed in the slot, the card will be activated upon detection.
In redundant systems, use the no shutdown command on cf3: on both SF/CPMs in order to facilitate synchronization. See the synchronize command on .
NOTE: The shutdown command must be issued prior to removing a flash card. If no parameters are specified, then the drive referred to by the current working directory will be shut down.
LED Status Indicators
The following states are possible for the compact flash:
Operational:
If a compact flash is present in a drive and operational (no shutdown), the respective LED is lit green. The LED flickers when the compact flash is accessed.
NOTE: Do not remove the compact flash during a read/write operation.
State: admin = up, operational = up, equipped
Flash defective:
If a compact flash is defective, the respective LED blinks amber to reflect the error condition and a trap is raised.
State: admin = up/down, operational = faulty, equipped = no
Flash drive shut down:
When the compact flash drive is shut down and a compact flash present, the LED is lit amber. In this state, the compact flash can be ejected.
State: admin = down, operational = down, equipped = yes
No compact flash present, drive shut down:
If no compact flash is present and the drive is shut down the LED is unlit.
State: admin = down, operational = down, equipped = no
No compact flash present, drive enabled:
If no compact flash is present and the drive is not shut down the LED is unlit.
State: admin = up, operational = down, equipped = no
Ejecting a compact flash:
The compact flash drive should be shut down before ejecting a compact flash card. The LED should turn to solid (not blinking) amber. This is the only mode to safely remove the flash card.
If a compact flash drive is not shut down before a compact flash is ejected, the LED blinks amber for approximately 5 seconds before shutting off.
State: admin = down, operational = down, equipped = yes
The shutdown or no shutdown state is not saved in the configuration file. Following a reboot all compact flash drives are in their default state.
Default
no shutdown — compact flash device administratively enabled
Parameters
cflash-id
Specifies the compact flash slot ID to be shut down or enabled. If cflash-id is specified, the drive is shut down or enabled. If no cflash-id is specified, the drive referred to by the current working directory is assumed. If a slot number is not specified, then the active CPM is assumed.
Default
Values
active
If active is selected, then all drives on the active CPM are shutdown or enabled.
standby
If standby is selected, then all drives on the standby CPM are shutdown or enabled.
Note: When both active and standby keywords are specified, then all drives on both CPM are shutdown.
File Commands
attrib
Syntax
attrib [+r | -r] file-url
attrib
Context
file
Description
This command sets or clears/resets the read-only attribute for a file in the local file system. To list all files and their current attributes enter attrib or attrib x where x is either the filename or a wildcard (*).
When an attrib command is entered to list a specific file or all files in a directory, the file’s attributes are displayed with or without an “R” preceding the filename. The “R” implies that the +r is set and that the file is read-only. Files without the “R” designation implies that the -r is set and that the file is read-write-all. For example:
	ALA-1>file cf3:\ # attrib
cf3:\bootlog.txt
cf3:\bof.cfg
cf3:\boot.ldr
cf3:\sr1.cfg
cf3:\test
cf3:\bootlog_prev.txt
cf3:\BOF.SAV
Parameters
file-url
The URL for the local file.
Values
local-url | remote-url: 255 chars max
local-url: [cflash-id/][file-path]
remote-url [ftp://login:pswd@remote-locn/][file-path]
cf1:,cf1-A:,cf1-B:,cf2:,cf2-A:,cf2-B:,cf3:,cf3-A:,cf3-B:
+r
Sets the read-only attribute on the specified file.
-r
Clears/resets the read-only attribute on the specified file.

Description
This command copies a file or all files in a directory from a source URL to a destination URL. At least one of the specified URLs should be a local URL. The optional wildcard (*) can be used to copy multiple files that share a common (partial) prefix and/or (partial) suffix.
When a file is copied to a destination with the same file name, the original file is overwritten by the new file specified in the operation. The following prompt appears if the destination file already exists:
“Overwrite destination file (y/n)?”
For example:
To copy a file named srcfile in a directory called test on cf2 in slot B to a file called destfile in a directory called production on cf1 in slot A, the syntax is:
sr1>file cf2:\ # copy cf2-B/test/srcfile cf1-A/production/destfile
To FTP a file named 121201.cfg in directory mydir stored on cf1 in slot A to a network FTP server with IP address 131.12.31.79 in a directory called backup with a destination file name of 121201.cfg, the FTP syntax is:
