CAT 3550 - copy flash tftp problem

try copy the hole directory to a tar file on the tftpsever. Coping only the bin image doesnot archive the htm files that give hte possibility to manege the switch from the web and doesnot allow to build a switch cluster. the comand to archive the cisco software on the new swithches is "archive upload sw ..... "

thanks for this, could you tell me how i would go about doing this.

archive upload-sw /? and you will see the options of the command

archive upload-sw ? sorry

Johnny, 2 options copy/archive. There is missing command "flash" on the source filename line -- see the e.g. below

Switch-A# copy flash tftp
Source filename []? flash:c3550-i5k2l2q3-mz.121-13.EA1a/c3550-i5k2l2q3-mz.121-13
.EA1a.bin
Address or name of remote host []? 192.168.1.10
Destination filename []? c3550-i5k2l2q3-mz.121-13.EA1a.bin

If you need the details, pls refer to book.itzero.com/read/cisco/0512/Cisco.Pr...00/ch10lev1sec5.html

Hope the info helps
