  Working with the Flash File System
For flash:/file-url, specify the location on the local flash file system from which the new tar file is 
created. You can also specify an optional list of files or directories within the source directory to write 
to the new tar file. If none are specified, all files and directories at this level are written to the newly 
created tar file.
This example shows how to create a tar file. This command writes the contents of the new-configs 
directory on the local flash device to a file named saved.tar on the TFTP server at 172.20.10.30:
bridge# archive tar /create tftp://172.20.10.30/saved.tar flash:/new-configs
Displaying the Contents of a tar File
To display the contents of a tar file on the screen, use this privileged EXEC command:
archive tar /table source-url
For source-url, specify the source URL alias for the local or network file system. These options are 
supported:
  •
For the local flash file system, the syntax is
 
flash:
  •
For the File Transfer Protocol (FTP), the syntax is 
ftp:[[//username[:password]@location]/directory]/tar-filename.tar
  •
For the Remote Copy Protocol (RCP), the syntax is 
rcp:[[//username@location]/directory]/tar-filename.tar
  •
For the Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP), the syntax is 
tftp:[[//location]/directory]/tar-filename.tar
The tar-filename.tar is the tar file to display.
You can also limit the display of the files by specifying an optional list of files or directories after the tar 
file; then only these files are displayed. If none are specified, all files and directories are displayed.
This example shows how to display the contents of the c1200-k9w7-mx.122-8.JA.tar file that is in flash 
memory:
bridge# archive tar /table flash:c1200-k9w7-mx.122-8.JA.tar
info (219 bytes)
c1400-k9w7-mx.122-11.JA/ (directory)
c1400-k9w7-mx.122-11.JA/html/ (directory)
c1400-k9w7-mx.122-11.JA/html/foo.html (0 bytes)
c1400-k9w7-mx.122-11.JA/c1200-k9w7-mx.122-8.JA.bin (610856 bytes)
c1400-k9w7-mx.122-11.JA/info (219 bytes)
info.ver (219 bytes)
This example shows how to display only the c1200-k9w7-mx.122-8.JA/html directory and its contents:
bridge# archive tar /table flash:c1200-k9w7-mx.122-8.JA/html
c1400-k9w7-mx.122-11.JA/html/ (directory)
c1400-k9w7-mx.122-11.JA/html/foo.html (0 bytes)
Extracting a tar File
To extract a tar file into a directory on the flash file system, use this privileged EXEC command:
archive tar /xtract source-url flash:/file-url
For source-url, specify the source URL alias for the local or network file system. These options are 
supported:
