How to backup a "show tech" and a "running config" from MDS switches

hi, guys
I am a newbie of MDS switches.
but I got a request this week asking me to actively backup a "show tech" and a "running config" from the MDS switches........
so my questions are:
1) if I want to back up MDS configurations, which commnds should I run? or just "show tech" is enough?
2) is the MDS itself have the backup function? for example can ftp the configuration to someplace?
please help point me the right direction or is there any official referece docs I can refer to ?
thanks in advance!!!

tftp worked for me but not ftp. My ftp requires a password and I don't know how to send it via scheduler job.
Worked:
scheduler job name BkupConfig
  copy running-config startup-config
  copy startup-config tftp://10.1.1.1/MDS_Bkup/DowMDS$(TIMESTAMP).txt
scheduler schedule name Weekly_5am
  job name BkupConfig
  time weekly 01:05:00

  • How do I transfer or backup tv shows I downloaded on my iPad from the iPad into my computer's iTunes library?

    How do I transfer or backup tv shows I downloaded on my iPad from the iPad into my computer's iTunes library? I have a bunch of tv episodes on my iPad that I want to delete but first i want to back them up onto my computer so i have them. If I check "Sync TV Shows" in the iPad in TV shows it tells me all the shows on the iPad will be replaced by what is in my library. I tried going into iTunes store to redownload but it tells me they are "downloaded." Any thoughts?

  • How can I change game centre and iCloud account information from previous owner of my iPad?

    How can I change game centre and iCloud account information from previous owner to me?

    You can't do it on your own. The previous owner has to erase the device for you. You would need his Apple ID and password in order to delete his iCloud account. This is due to the Activation Lock in iOS 7 - assuming that your iPad is running iOS 7.
    Contact the owner and ask home to erase it remotely using iCloud, or return the device and ask for your money back. If you can't contact the pervious owner, you will have a useless iPad on your hands.
    Read this for more information. This is what you need the previous owner to do.

  • Show tech and cpu load

    Hello
    we have 2 6500 in VSS , with image 15.1(1)SY1.
    I had to do show tech as there was some issue in our network , when i gave this command immidiately show process cpu output showed usage as 100% and resource was SSH Process and show tech output never got complete session got hanged and I had to open new VTY session
    I want to know does this happen eveytime when we give show tech or there is a issue with our device .

    Amit
    It is not necessarily an issue with your switches. When you are logged in via the vty lines and you issue a command like "sh tech" there is a large amount of data to be displayed and it is normal for the CPU to spike when it does this -
    Q. How can we reduce the process for SSH on 6500?
    A. If it is virtual exec, that is used for servicing vty lines, Vty lines are used for logging into the switch. If we are trying to dump a huge output like "show tech", it is expected to see high CPU and is not a matter for concern.

    so what you are seeing is normal. But what is not normal is the display getting hung and having to open a new session.
    So if it happens all the time it would be a problem but it could just be that at that particular time the switch was busy doing other things that also placed a load on the CPU.

  • How to backup all database settings and data for SOA suite to file(s) ?

    During the installation of the SOA Suite a couple of tables and schemas are created
    in Oracle database through the irca.bat script.
    Later the tables are filled with content by all the servers and services of the
    SOA Suite.
    How can I backup all these tables and SOA related stuff to one (or more)
    files (for a possible later restore)?
    This backup should contain only SOA Suite related tables and data.
    Possible other tables (for other applications) should not be considered.
    Is there a script (e.g. for sqlplus) or menu which does the
    SOA database backup job for me ?
    If there is no official backup script maybe someone in this forum
    wrote a personal script.
    Thank you
    Peter

    I am facing the same problem.
    I have spend a few days to configure and train my Sony tablet to configure for all my remotes such as aircon and lighting. I did a backup using the Sony companion to my PC. When my tablet was faulty and serviced. But the backup did not recover the IR remote settings and codes which I programmed previously. I also tried your backup restore app but it also does not save the configuration.
    It is VERY IMPORTANT for me to backup the settings.
    Please provide the folders and path of where the IR REMOTE settings and personal configuration and codes trained were kept so that I could back them up. Are these path protected area that required rooted access?
    Hope that Sony could update the app to include backup of new trained codes and settings and in the meantime to provide a procedure of how to backup the setting and trained IR codes with or without rooting the device.

  • In VB how do I pass my low and high limit results from a TestStand Step into the ResultList and how do I retrieve them from the same?

    I am retrieving high and low limits from step results in VB code that looks something like this:
    ' (This occurs while processing a UIMsg_Trace event)
    Set step = context.Sequence.GetStep(previousStepIndex, context.StepGroup)
    '(etc.)
    ' Get step limits for results
    Set oStepProperty = step.AsPropertyObject
    If oStepProperty.Exists("limits", 0&) Then
    dblLimitHigh = step.limits.high
    dblLimitLow = step.limits.low
    '(etc.)
    So far, so good. I can see these results in
    VB debug mode.
    Immediately after this is where I try to put the limits into the results list:
    'Add Limits to results
    call mCurrentExecution.AddExtraResult("Step.Limits.High", "UpperLimit")
    call mCurrentExecution.AddExtraResult("Step.Limits.Low", "LowerLimit")
    (No apparent errors here while executing)
    But in another section of code when I try to extract the limits, I get some of the results, but I do not get any limits results.
    That section of code occurs while processing a UIMsg_EndExecution event and looks something like this:
    (misc declarations)
    'Get the size of the ResultList array
    Call oResultList.GetDimensions("", 0, sDummy, sDummy, iElements, eType)
    'Step through the ResultList array
    For iItem = 0 To iElements - 1
    Dim oResult As PropertyObject
    Set oResult = oResultList.GetPropertyObject("[" & CStr(iItem) & "]", 0)
    sMsg = "StepName = " & oResult.GetValString("TS.StepName", 0) & _
    ", Status = " & oResult.GetValString("Status", 0)
    If oResult.Exists("limits", 0&) Then
    Debug.Print "HighLimit: " & CStr(oResult.GetValNumber("Step.Limits.High", 0))
    Debug.Print "LowLimit: " & CStr(oResult.GetValNumber("Step.Limits.Low", 0))
    End If
    '(handle the results)
    Next iItem
    I can get the step name, I can get the status, but I can't get the limits. The "if" statement above which checks for "limits" never becomes true, because, apparently the limit results never made it to the results array.
    So, my question again is how can I pass the low and high limit results to the results list, and how can I retrieve the same from the results list?
    Thanks,
    Griff

    Griff,
    Hmmmm...
    I use this feature all the time and it works for me. The only real
    difference between the code you posted and what I do is that I don't
    retrieve a property object for each TestStand object, instead I pass the
    entire sequence context (of the process model) then retrieve a property
    object for the entire sequence context and use the full TestStand object
    path to reference sub-properties. For example, to access a step's
    ResultList property called "foo" I would use the path:
    "Locals.ResultList[0].TS.SequenceCall.ResultList[].Foo"
    My guess is the problem has something to do with the object from which
    you're retrieving the property object and/or the path used to obtain
    sub-properties from the object. You should be able to break-point in the
    TestStand sequence editor immediately after the test step in question
    executes, then see the extra results in the step's ResultList using the
    context viewer.
    For example, see the attached sequence file. The first step adds the extra
    result "Step.Limits" as "Limits", the second step is a Numeric Limit (which
    will have the step property of "Limits") test and the third step pops up a
    dialog if the Limits property is found in the Numeric Limit test's
    ResultList. In the Sequence Editor, try executing with the first step
    enalbled then again with the first step skipped and breakpoint on the third
    step. Use the context viewer to observe where the Limits property is added.
    That might help you narrow in on how to specify the property path to
    retrieve the value.
    If in your code, you see the extra results in the context viewer, then the
    problem lies in how you're trying to retrieve the property. If the extra
    results aren't there, then something is wrong in how you're specifying them,
    most likely a problem with the AddExtraResult call itself.
    One other thing to check... its hard to tell from the code you posted... but
    make sure you're calling AddExtraResult on the correct execution object and
    that you're calling AddExtraResult ~before~ executing the step you want the
    result to show up for. Another programmer here made the mistake of assuming
    he could call AddExtraResult ~after~ the step executed and TestStand would
    "back fill" previously executed steps. Thats not the case. Also, another
    mistake he made was expecting the extra results to appear for steps that did
    not contain the original step properties. For example, a string comparison
    step doesn't have a "Step.Limits.High" property, so if this property is
    called out explicitly in AddExtraResult, then the extra result won't appear
    in the string comparison's ResultList entry. Thats why you should simply
    specify "Step.Limits" to AddExtraResul so the Limits container (whose
    contents vary depending on the step type) will get copied to the ResultList
    regardless of the step type.
    I call AddExtraResult at the beginning of my process model, not in a UI
    message handler, so there may be some gotcha from calling it that way. If
    all else fails, try adding the AddExtraResult near the beginning of your
    process model and see if the extra results appear in each step's ResultList.
    Good luck,

  • How do I eliminate individual emails and other specific items from iCloud?

    I have an iPad4 and am using iCloud for backup. I do not wish to backup all of the emails I create, nor do I wish to backup all of the emails I receive.  How can backup be done selectively for incoming and outgoing emails?  Similarly, can other backed up items, e.g., notes and reminders be backed up selectively?

    Your options for managing what is in the backup are listed in Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap your device under Backups, then look under Backup Options.
    Your email is not stored in the iCloud backup.  It is stored in your account, but not in the backup.  You can delete email that you no longer want in your account, either from icloud.com or from the mail app on your iPad.  (Be sure to empty the trash after you do, or it will still be in your account.)

  • How to get both, the ResultSet and Output (return value) from Oracle Stored Procedure

    Hi! I am doing a conversion from MSSQL to Oracle with C++ and MFC ODBC. Any comment is appreciated!! I have Oracle 8i and Oracle ODBC 8.1.6 installed.
    My question is how to retrieve the return value AND ALSO the resultSet at the same time by using Oracle function without modifying my souce codes (except puttting mypackage. string infron of my procedure name, see below).
    -- My source code in C++ with MSSQL ....
    sqlStr.Format("{? = call ListOfCustomers(%i)}", nNameID);
    RcOpen = CustomerList.Open(CRecordset::forwardOnly, sqlStr, CRecordset::readOnly );
    Where CustoemrList is a Crecordset object...
    IN DoFieldExchange(CFieldExchange* pFX) I have ...
    //{{AFX_FIELD_MAP(CQOSDB_Group)
    pFX->SetFieldType(CFieldExchange::outputColumn);
    RFX_Long(pFX, T("Name"), mCustoemrName);
    //}}AFX_FIELD_MAP
    // output parameter
    pFX->SetFieldType( CFieldExchange::outputParam );
    RFX_Int( pFX, T("IndexCount"), mCustomerNumber);
    -- m_CustomerNumber is where i store the return value!!!
    -- In Oracle Version, i have similar codes with ...
    sqlStr.Format("{? = call mypackage.ListOfCustomers(%i)}", nNameID);
    RcOpen = CustomerList.Open(CRecordset::forwardOnly, sqlStr, CRecordset::readOnly );
    -- I have oracle package/Body codes as following...
    create or replace package mypackage
    as
    type group_rct is ref cursor;
    Function listgroups(
    nameID NUMBER ,
    RC1 IN OUT Mypackage.group_rct ) return int;
    end;
    Create or replace package body mypackage
    as
    Function listgroups(
    NameID NUMBER ,
    RC1 IN OUT Mypackage.group_rct )return int
    IS
    BEGIN
    OPEN RC1 FOR SELECT Name
    from Customer
    WHERE ID = NameIDEND ListGroups;
    END
    return 7;
    END listgroups;
    END MyPackage;
    Ive simplified my codes a bit....
    null

    yes, it is exactly what i want to do and I am using Oracle ODBC driver.
    I tried using procedure with 1 OUT var fo numeric value and the other IN OUT ref cursor var instead of function, but error occurs when I called it from the application. It give me a memory ecxception error!!
    sqlStr.Format("{? = call ListOfCustomers(%i)}", nNameID);
    RcOpen = CustomerList.Open(CRecordset::forwardOnly, sqlStr, CRecordset::readOnly );
    it seems to me that the ? marker var is making all the trouble... can you please give me any more comment on this?? thanks!

  • How to ensure a smooth update and smooth running mac

    Hello all. First off this is not a 'help' or 'query' post, thanks to everyone in this Discussion who has helped me in the past for various mac problems, thought I "give back" and post some good tips and usage on "ensuring a smooth update and smooth running mac" in the long run.
    Altogether I have 3 Macs at home to "maintain" (my iMac G5, MacBook and my sis's Mac mini Intel) and in the office my own G5 Tower and 2-3 other same G5s. So far I have "dare to say" (touchwood ) I have not run into any major problems while performing any major OS or Security Updates; I know some of these steps are mentioned and even "preach" many times, but by doing them, you avoid all the inconvenience in the long run:
    Always Backup:
    1. Whatever you do, invest in a 2nd hard drive and perform regular back ups!
    2. If you have a G5 Tower or Mac Pro, get a 2nd drive or 3rd and install internally, if you have the other Macs, get an external FireWire Hard Drive.
    3. Use SuperDuper, and pay the little shareware to get the additional automatic and scheduling functions to help you perform auto backups, or if you prefer doing the backup manually
    4. For home users, I would recommend you perform a Backup once every 2 weeks. Heavy office/work use, I say once a week
    Performing Updates:
    1. Before Starting Up, unplug all external devices like FW drives, USB hubs etc, leave only your wired keyboard, mouse and internet connection (unless they are all wireless)
    2. Start Up your mac, quit all running applications and Repair Disk Permission
    3. Restart again and Repair Permission again
    4. Quit all other running apps and also turn off Norton Anti-virus, run Software Update
    5. Whether or not you have the Restart option after the update, Restart your mac
    6. Repair Disk Permission
    7. Shut down the mac, fix all the external devices etc
    8. Start up your mac, Repair Permission again
    9. Use your Mac as usual
    I have been doing these since all the 10.4 updates and I have not encounter any problems with all my macs.
    When a Kernel Panic occurs:
    1. Restart the mac and boot into Single User Mode (fsck)
    2. Run fsck and Repair the mac
    3. Reboot the mac, Repair Permission
    Regular Maintenance:
    1. Get a Maintenance Utility like Cocktail, and pay for the shareware and schedule regular maintenance cycles.
    2. The Mac OS also has a "built-in" maintenance script that runs in the wee hours (local time), so it is actually encourage that you at least leave your mac on overnight for at least one or two nights in the week.
    If you do not wish your mac to be left on till the morning, you can always schedule in Energy Saver's Schedule options for the mac to turn on and off at your designated times.
    I always leave my office mac on till about 4-5 am in the morning and I set things like Cocktail and NAV scans to run in those hours so they won't disrupt your day time operations, I do the same to my own home iMac.
    These tips and pointers are not new and have been mentioned many times in these posts, but if you just take that extra little time to follow through, you will be ensure a better and healtheir running mac.
    Cheers

    You can enter your Mac's serial number at this site. Information, based on the serial number, will be shown. http://www.chipmunk.nl/klantenservice/applemodel.html Then tell us what model PB you have.
    Usually, you get a blinking ? when no OS is installed. The startup tone (bong) you heard indicates the PB passed the startup hardware test.
     Cheers, Tom

  • How do I move all photos and catalog (PE 6)  from local computer drive to network server drive?

    I'm using PE 6. I have about 40 GB of photos all organized and cataloged on my local PC's hard drive. I have just installed a home server that is networked and want to move/migrate all the photos and catalog information/organization from my local PC drive to the home server's hard drive. Basically, just moving everything to a new drive. I then need to point PE 6 to this new location for the photos and catalog information. All advice on how to do this would be appreciated?

    I just got done doing this and I'm not so sure I'd recommend it.
    #1 reason: The #$%%#$ Organizer has REAL PROBLEMS figuring out network path names. It has this really nasty habit of thinking, say, \\homeserv\photos, \\Homeserv\Photos, and \\HOMESERV\PHOTOS are DIFFERENT paths. And depending on how you use it to navigate, or drag and drop files onto it, or teach it to watch a folder on a network drive or whatever, it uses variants on these kinds of path names. This leads to problems like duplicate imports that are really the same file.
    What a ***.
    You MIGHT have better luck if you use a mapped drive letter to make this work. Sad. The rules for writing WinApps to NOT NEED mapped drive letters have been common knowledge to developers for a decade. Just not Adobe developers, apparently. Beyond sad. Pathetic.

  • How to stop scheduled ship date and scheduled arrival date from defaulting to sysdate

    Hello,
    We have a business scenario where we are deriving scheduled ship date and scheduled arrival date outside and then imported in the instance with the order. However we find that the scheduled ship date and scheduled arrival date are defaulting to sysdate. The atp flag is set to N for these items. I have checked the defaulting rules, there is no such defaulting rule set for scheduled ship date or arrival date ( screenshot attached) Please share your thoughts on how can I stop scheduled ship date and arrival date date from defaulting to sysdate ?

  • How do I delete old .mac and .me email addresses from the new iCloud email server?

    Now that I have iCloud, all the old .mac and .me email that I never used feeds through it.  Since there is no SPAM filter, I cannot block these emails from getting through and I get lots of spam now.   How do I delete the .mac and .me email addresses?
    Thanks.

    I  set the Rules months ago to automatically put all email sent to those email addresses in TRASH.  However, they still appear in my Mail Trash on my Mac.  Just an annoyance.    Thanks for the response.

    Polly,
    usually there are multiple models of MacBook Pro per model number, but in the case of your model number (A1502), there’s currently only one model for that model number: 13-inch Late 2013.
    To reset your MacBook Pro, you’ll need to boot into Recovery mode by holding down a Command key and the R key as you start it up. When the Mac OS X Utilities menu appears, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk (most likely the top item of the list). On the right-hand side, select the Erase tab. For the Format dropdown, select “Mac OS Extended (Journaled)”. For the Name input box, “Macintosh HD” has traditionally been the default name — I don’t know if that’s still the case for the Late 2013 models. After that, press the Erase… button, and erase its entire internal disk. When it’s finished with the erasure, exit Disk Utility, and select Shut Down from the Apple menu. When you start it up again, OS X Internet Recovery will redownload Mavericks from Apple’s servers and reïnstall it on your internal disk. Once it has reïnstalled, run Software Update to get it up to date, and adjust the System Preferences to your taste.
