I had an electrical maintenance when cisco were abruptly shutdown.

When it recovers configuration was different.  Many port had status disable 1.

Does anybody know what happened ?

Thanks in advance,

Rosa

Rosa,

Were you able to re-enable the ports?  Did they come back up successfully?  Can you attach a "show log" to see if there is any crashinfo.

Regards,

--Jeff

Thanks for your answer.

In fact, this problem rises because CATOS do not write changes in memory by default when using "System configuration mode set to text."

   I have seen this happen before on catos boxes , mostly the old 4006 boxes  and consider it either a bug or design flaw.  Not much you can do about it other than make sure you keep backup configs up to date and or put it on a UPS .  Seeing catos is basically EOL it's not something they will fix .  We used to see it happen once in great while when you got a quick power hit where the power goes out and  almost immediately comes back on , for some reason that affects the nvram and some or all of the config gets wiped out.

Thanks for your answer.

I'm not positive, but quite certain, since its been a while since I've run CATOS, ( and I do prefer it) but you have to do a wr mem when using text mode on CATOS.  I've been digging for old docs, the original sups I used to run CAT on I'd swap back and forth for troubleshooting purposes...

You can do a wr mem but you can also setup an automatic save within a predefined time period if you want.

Only binary mode does an automatic save straigt away.

Jon

Thanks.

That was the problem.
