ACE Startup-config file location

Hello,
I was reading the ACE docs and it sounds like the startup-config file should be listed under disk0: but I don't see it there. Can someone point out where the startup-config file is.
Thanks
Mike

Hi MICHAEL,
Upon startup, the ACE loads the startup-configuration file stored in Flash memory (nonvolatile memory) to the running-configuration file stored in RAM (volatile memory). When you partition your ACE into multiple contexts, each context contains its own startup-configuration file.
Flash memory stores the startup-configuration files for each existing context. When you create a new context, the ACE creates a new context directory in Flash memory to store the context-specific startup-configuration files. When you copy a configuration file from the ACE, you create a copy of the configuration information of the context from where you executed the command.
To display the directory contents of a specified file system, use the dir command in Exec mode. This command displays a detailed list of directories and files contained within the specified file system on the ACE, including names, sizes, and time created. You may optionally specify the name of a directory to list.
The syntax for this command is:
dir {core: | disk0:[directory/][filename] | image:[filename] | probe:[filename] | volatile:[filename]}
The keywords and arguments are:
â¢core:-Displays the contents of the core: file system.
â¢disk0:-Displays the contents of the disk0: file system.
â¢image:-Displays the contents of the image: file system.
â¢probe:-Displays the contents of the probe: file system. This directory contains the Cisco-supplied scripts. For more information about these scripts, see the Cisco 4700 Series Application Control Engine Appliance Server Load-Balancing Configuration Guide.
â¢volatile:-Displays the contents of the volatile: file system.
â¢directory/-(Optional) Contents of the specified directory.
â¢filename-(Optional) Information that relates to the specified file, such as the file size and the date it was created. You can use wildcards in the filename. A wildcard character (*) matches all patterns. Strings after a wildcard are ignored.
For example, to list the files in the disk0: file system, enter:
host1/Admin# dir disk0:
host/Admin# dir disk0:

Copying startup-config file

Hi,
I have one armed mode CSS11503. I can't sync. both Load balancers.
Is it possible to copt master's startup-config file via ftp and modify than paste in slave one?

you can copy the config from one css to a ftp server.
First create an FTP record in config.
Then use the command 'copy startup-config ftp '
Edit the file and adjust circuit ip addresses and app settings.
Then copy it into the standby CSS with the command
copy ftp startup-config

OK.
Try this:
conf t
service compress-config
And see if that helps.
If not, see if you can tftp the running config off the router and TFTP it back to startup-config:
copy run tftp
copy tftp start
Then you can try a reload and see if it is cured.
I googled and found a few cases where alot of ACLs or NAT rules could cause MALOC errors (you would see those in your logs) when implemented and could manifest itself in this condition, which could be cured after the next reload, which is why I suggested that.
Of course, dont be remote when you do this and only do it during a maintenance window.

2610 Factory Reset and Startup Config Files

Hi all;
I have a used 2610 which I did a factory reset on. I am able to get into the IOS and edit/change the config.
However after editing and trying to save using the command:
copy run start
I get prompted to save the config to a file name/location which ultimately fails. Then on reboot it goes into the "basic setup" sequence again never saving to the config I'm trying to save.
The IOS ver. is 12.0(3)T and I do have the latest ver. and an TFTP program to upgrade, but I would like to create a config and save it first.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance. Steve

Edison;
Thanks for the reply. Yes my register was 0x2142 but I did the "config-register 0x2102" and then was able to copy the running config to the startup config.
I do have another ?. I did type in a time offset command for my timezone but after reboot it keeps defaulting back to year 1993.

XBMC-standalone config files location [solved]

My HTPC seems to have corrupted one of the XBMC config files (probably the library) and now it doesn't seem to be able to add any videos (even with .nfo files) to the library (and it has lost quite a lot of videos that were already there).
I've looked everywhere to try and delete the config files however I can't seem to find where they are when XBMC is started using systemctl (I thought I'd struck gold with "/usr/share/xbmc/system/" however deleting them didn't help).
So far I've tried removing and re-installing XBMC and deleting /usr/share/xbmc/system (which is removed when uninstalling XBMC) and it doesn't seem to have reset configuration is there anywhere else I should look?
Thanks for the help.
Last edited by Aradreth (2013-10-19 12:32:48)

There is no XBMC folder in any of the users under /home/ as it is run by the XBMC user created by the package. However you did make me think of looking at the .install file for where is puts the home directory for the user and the config files are in there ('/var/lib/xbmc/.xbmc/' if anyone else ever needs to find them).
Problem solved.
Thanks

Using JNDI to access config file located outsite j2ee app

Hi I'm wanting to store a config file for my J2ee app, somewhere on a tomcat server possibly inside the
conf/ directory so that I can update this config file without having to redeploy the j2ee app every time a change is made.
I've been told I can use JNDI to access this file, but I can't seem to find any examples or documentation on how I can do this.
I'm new to JNDI and would appreciate any help, or suggestions.
Thanks,
Tim
EDIT:
So far I can access the file with this code:
Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
          env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.sun.jndi.fscontext.RefFSContextFactory");
          try {
               Context ctx = new InitialContext(prop);
               // look up context for name
               //env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "file:C:\\confluence\\confluence-2.5.1-std\\conf");
               File f = (File)ctx.lookup("/confluence/confluence-2.5.1-std/conf/test.txt");My new problems are:
1. The commented line env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "file:C:\\confluence\\confluence-2.5.1-std\\conf"); it says in examples that this should set the dir to look in to the conf dir but if i change the lookup value to just test.txt it cannot find it.
2. Can I somehow set the context to look into the conf directory of Tomcat without hard coding the path, as the path could change or be different on different machines??

Hi Kiran,
Looking at the code you sent and the error, it looks like you should be casting the ds object to a javax.sql.DataSource object not a weblogic.jdbc.common.internal.RmiDataSource object.
You may find some useful info at the following URL:

Common Beans Faces Config (File Location)

If you have a project with multiple JHeadstart App Definitions, what is the consequence of setting the 'Common Beans Faces Config' to a diffrent location for each App Def?
e.g./WEB-INF/<subsystem>/JhsCommon-beans.xml
Inside web.xml, javax.faces.CONFIG_FILES lists each of the separate JhsCommon-beans.xml files.
I note that the help says this property should be set to the 'same across all application definition files'.
JHeadstart 10.1.3

Tom,
1) On pressing find we notice the following (debug
mode)
-performs count hits query (e.g. 6 secs, a slow
query!)
-performs the main VO query with order by (again 6
secs)
-ripples through the label fetching (from bundles 3
including jhs and javax)
-once again, after the clear button label and before
save button label (i.e. where table would be
rendered), another count hits query (again 6 secs)
total about 18 secs
Any idea how to prevent the count hits (both)?Tom, I did the following: overwrite method getQueryHitCount in my ViewObjectImpl class, and set a breakpoint on the call to super. When I click find in a page, the method gets called through JhsSearchBean.executeAdvancedSearchBinding to determine whether any rows will be returned ro conditionally show the "Now Rows found"message, and whether the number of rows does not exceed the max number of query hits allowed.
Then, if the query returns more rows than the rangeSize, the ADF Faces Table renderer calls the method again.
So, I have either 1 or 2 calls to this method, not 3. The ADF Faces call canot be prevented, you could overwrite JhsSearchBean.executeAdvancedSearchBinding and remove the functionality that uses the getEstainmtaedRowCount call.
To figure out why in your situation the method gets called 3 times, you can do the same as I did, overwrite getQueryHitCount and put a breakpoint on it.
>
2) For label fetching I note that the query labels
are fetched twice (consequtively). Not sure what
calls getMessage, but puzzled that it calls these
labels twice, only once for the table column labels.This ADF Faces table rendering internals, nothing we can do about that.
>
3) One of the fields, FIND_STATUS is an
af:selectOneChoice, with
unselectedLabel="#{nls['UNSELECTED_LABEL']}", so this
is translated.
In addition the table has a field TABLE_STATUS, with
same configuration.
This second field as just displayed (not updateable),
but if blank then the 'UNSELECTED_LABEL' translation
is attempted for each row.
Can JHeadstart control this to avoid this translate?
i.e. the amount of translation is now row count and
data dependent.Same as 20, This ADF Faces table rendering internals, nothing we can do about that.

Apple Startup Audio File Location

Where is the audio file that is used when starting up? I would like to change the audio file, of me singing the Opera, instead of the infamous Apple startup sound. Any ideas?

The normal startup chime is in the computer's firmware, not on the hard drive, and cannot be changed by customers.

Backup aborted - Unable to receive file 'startup-config'

I'm seeing this on some 2950s and an old 2924 that I have. Is this issue related to the age of the switches? It's picking up drivers and successfully testing credentials. So I'm just checking.

It doesn't appear to be the lack of a startup-config file. I checked the 3 affected devices. The issue is possible destinations. There is no option in the IOS running on these devices to set the destination as "http:" See the output below for copy startup-config ?
flash:          Copy to flash: file system
ftp:            Copy to ftp: file system
null:           Copy to null: file system
nvram:          Copy to nvram: file system
rcp:            Copy to rcp: file system
running-config Update (merge with) current system configuration
startup-config Copy to startup configuration
system:         Copy to system: file system
tftp:           Copy to tftp: file system
As much as I would say this wouldn't be a Cisco OnPlus priority, one possible coding workaround might be a lightweight tftp server running on the OnPlus device and a modification of the code to attempt http: first and on failure to startup the tftp server and attempt to use that method and then shut the tftp server back down, for security reasons. Just a thought.

SQL Agent job step - SSIS package - adding a config file - will it override the one that the package specifies?

If I setup a job step to run a package and set the config file location on the "Configurations" tab, will that override the config file that the SSIS package is configured to use? Or is this a "cumulative" type configuration option?
I typically have my config file mixed in with my project files, but that path wont exist on the server.

Hi Shiftbit,
ETL vs ELT is right.
In SSIS 2005, the DTExec utility loads and runs the package, events occur in the following order:
The package file is loaded.
The configurations specified in the package at design time are applied in the order specified in the package (except for Parent Package Variables).
Any options specified from the command line are applied. Any configurations specified on the command line overwrite the current values; however, they do not trigger a reload of the configurations if a changed value impacts a configuration dependency. For
example, if the connection string used for SQL Server configurations is updated from the command line at run time, the package will still retain any other values from the design-time SQL Server configuration database.
Parent Package Variable Configurations are applied.
The package is run.
In SSIS 2008 and higher, utility loads and runs the package, events occur in the following order:
The dtexec utility loads the package.
The utility applies the configurations that were specified in the package at design time and in the order that is specified in the package. (The one exception to this is the Parent Package Variables configurations. The utility applies these configurations
only once and later in the process.)
The utility then applies any options that you specified on the command line.
The utility then reloads the configurations that were specified in the package at design time and in the order specified in the package. (Again, the exception to this rule is the Parent Package Variables configurations). The utility uses any command-line
options that were specified to reload the configurations. Therefore, different values might be reloaded from a different location.
The utility applies the Parent Package Variable configurations.
The utility runs the package.
So, we can see that no matter we use SSIS 2005 which applies the Configurations once or use SSIS 2008 (or higher) which applies the configurations twice, the configurations specified in the command line will affect and not be overwritten by the configurations
specified at design-time.

SRW2024P config file issue

Hello there, we got a problem with our Linksys switch. What happened was, we wanted to restore a config from another switch (same) so we backed up the config and loaded it onto this current "dead" one. All we thought was going fine until the switch never came back up, and logging into the console was impossible as it wouldn't accept any of our passwords.
What we wish to accomplish is either a) reset the switch completely back to factory settings or b) get some sort of admin access. Both of those tasks are seeming to be impossible at the moment. I've upgraded the firmware using XMODEM which didn't help. What I've noticed with the switch (however I don't know if this is the problem) is that there's no startup-config file. I tried to upload a startup-config using XMODEM but the switch just won't save the config (yes there's enough space) as it asks me to Runtime or Diag after uploading to which I choose runtime and absolutely nothing happens. I've read that removing the startup-config file and rebooting the switch should allow me to log in using admin/blank, but again, that's not the case.
Spoke to Linksys support over in the States and they seem to not be very helpful. They said try upgrading the firmware but of course that hasn't helped at all. Doing an RMA is going to be very last option because we need to try and somehow get this switch into production in the next 2-3 days and I'm trying to avoid RMA which I was told might take 8-10 working days to get another switch. Suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Hello, maybe this can help:
Is my understanding that logging in to the console is impossible as it won't recognized any of the passwords, so here is a link of how to reset the password back to factory defaults, it is pretty simple and it may get you going.

Erase startup config

all I would like to do is to erase the startup config file, but when I do a "erase" the only option I have is to erase disk0 or flash. If I do a "write erase" it doesnt give any other options. If I choose either command will it automatically erase what is in ram or will it erase ALL in flash? I do not want to erase the ios version, just the startup config so I can copy a new one in (via notepad copy\paste).

hi,
yes, the write erase command will delete the startup-config and not the IOS image.
do a reload command or reboot the device afterwards.

How to load a config file at appliaction startup

Hi
Is there a way to load a config file at application startup?
I have the DB conection info in a config file.
Right now m accessing that info by loading it using a classloader n then parsing it.
When ever i access the DB this file is loaded n parsed.
I want it to be loaded only once at startup n get cached.
Then later on whenever i refer it, i shud get the cached copy.
Is there a way to do this?

Or you could just include a relevant static block.
For instance you could have a utility class for accessing your DB in which you wrap jdbc code for querying, updating etc. This class would have code like the following:
public class DBBean {
   private static DataSource ds = null;
   static {
      loadDataSource();
   public static loadDataSource() {
      // load your property file with the configuration info and setup your datasource
   public static void doSomething() {
      Connection con = ds.getConnection();
}By placing initialization code in a public (?) method you can call this method to re-initialize your DataSource if e.g. you updated your datasource settings.
Hope this helps

I want to change the file location for the automatic backup file bookmarks.file, but I can't find browser.bookmarks.file in the list on the about:config page.

I asked about automatic backup of bookmarks and received the following answer:You can make Firefox 3 create an automatic HTML backup (bookmarks.html) when you exit Firefox if you set the pref [http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML] to true on the about:config page. That backup is created by default in the profile folder as bookmarks.html, but you can set the file name and path via the pref [http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.bookmarks.file browser.bookmarks.file] on the about:config page. I went to about:config page and toggled browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML to “Yes” and it’s working. However, I want to change the file location, but I can’t find browser.bookmarks.file in the list.

The browser.bookmarks.file preference does not exist by default. Right-click in about:config and select "New > String" to create it.

Delete multiple files from multiple locations using config file

Hello All,
I am fairly new to .net and I have to make a windows application to delete files older than 90 days from multi ple locations. these multiple locations cant be hard coded and have to be configurable, also the number of days to delete the files have to be
configurable.
I think the answer to this would be an app.config file. but dont know how to use the same.
can anyone tell me about this and if possible help me out with a code snippet.?

Add settings like picture below. Add the string by press the double dot icon.
The use the code below
static void Main(string[] args)
int deleteDays = Properties.Settings.Default.DeleteDays;
StringCollection folders = Properties.Settings.Default.Folders;
foreach (string folder in folders)
DirectoryInfo info = new DirectoryInfo(folder);
FileSystemInfo[] deleleteFiles = info.EnumerateFiles()
.Where(x => x.LastWriteTime < DateTime.Today.AddDays(deleteDays))
.ToArray() ;
foreach(FileSystemInfo file in deleleteFiles)
File.Delete(file.FullName);
