File system management commands


[IMPORTANT: ]

IMPORTANT:

  • Before managing storage media, files, and directories, make sure you know the possible impacts.

  • A file or directory whose name starts with a period (.) is considered a hidden file or directory. Do not give a common file or directory a name that starts with a period.

  • Some system files and directories are hidden.


A file name must be specified in one of the file name formats allowed. For more information, see Fundamentals Configuration Guide.

Before you use the copy, delete, fixdisk, format, gunzip, gzip, mkdir, move, rename, rmdir, or undelete command on a USB disk, make sure the disk is not write protected.

An HPE 7904 (JG682A) or HPE 7904 TAA (JH122A) switch uses one built-in MPU (slot 0). An HPE 7910 (JG841A) or HPE 7910 TAA (JH123A) switch uses two removable switching fabric modules (slots 10 and 11) for switching and control. Unless otherwise stated, the term "MPU" collectively refers to the switching fabric modules on HPE 7910 and HPE 7910 TAA switches and the built-in MPUs on HPE 7904 and HPE 7904 TAA switches.

Unless otherwise stated, the term "card" collectively refers to LPUs, switching fabric modules, and MPUs.
