Software Rollback Configuration Scenarios for a Single Switch
The examples below illustrate a few likely scenarios and explain how the running configuration, working
directory, and certified directory interoperate to facilitate the software rollback on a single switch.

Scenario 1: Running Configuration Lost After Reboot
Switch X is new from the factory. It is plugged in and booted up from the certified directory, the contents
of which are loaded into the running configuration. Since the working and certified directories are exactly
the same, the switch is running from the working directory. Through the course of several days, changes
are made to the configuration file in the running configuration.

are made to the configuration file in the running configuration.
Power to the switch is interrupted, the switch reboots from the certified directory, all the changes in the
running configuration are overwritten, and the switch rolls back to the certified directory (which in this
case is the factory setting).
