Simple question - ACE Context Running Config

How do I erase the running config of a context ? wr erase only gets rid of the the start up. I can go through it with no commands but was hoping there is a better way.

If you could reload per context erasing the startup config would work. Unfortunately you can only reload the whole ace blade.

Fastest way to get rid of a config within a context is to delete the context in the admin context and then re-create it.

changeto Admin

conf t

no context

context

If you had checkpoints already created those are gone as well once you issue the "no context " command.

To make it easier in the future i would suggest you create an empty checkpoint at the very beginning or at the point of your configuration where you want to start to experiment with the settings.

conf t

checkpoint create

or

checkpoint create

To get the settings back u issue.

conf t

checkpoint rollback

The checkpoints are per context btw.

Hope that helps.

Just in case anyone is stuck...

ace-1/Con1(config)# checkpoint?

% invalid command

ace-1/Con1# checkpoint create test

Generating configuration....

Created configuration checkpoint 'test'

ace-1/Con1#

Thanks Roble

Ooops...

I am so used to "configuration" mode that i actually didn't verify that it's a privilege mode command.

Happy to hear it helped.

Hi,

To revert the ACE back to factory default settings, is it then enough to erase the admin context config, or do I have to delete each context individually and then delete the Admin context config?

Thanks alot.

Hi Dario,

I believe a write erase in the admin context & reload should do it.

Could you let me know how it goes? I don't have a test platform.

Cheers,

Claire

Hi,

Yes, wr erase in the admin context does the trick!

thanks alot,

Dario
