| Description | A config-copy request.
A management station wishing to create an entry should
first generate a random serial number to be used
as the index to this sparse table. The station should
then create the associated instance of the row status
object.
This config-copy operation is only to copy the running
configuration to startup configuration for FICON.
Once the appropriate instance of all the configuration
objects have been created, either by an explicit SNMP
set request or by default, the row status should be set
to active to initiate the request. Note that this entire
procedure may be initiated via a single set request
which specifies a row status of createAndGo.
Once the config-copy request has been created (i.e. the
cfCopyEntryRowStatus has been made active), the entry
cannot be modified - the only operation possible
after this is to delete the row.
Once the request completes, the management station
should retrieve the value of the status object
and should then delete the entry. In order
to prevent old entries from clogging the table,
entries will be aged out, but an entry will never be
deleted within 5 minutes of completing. |
