Fast and Easy Way to Create a System Repair Disc in Windows 7

Windows 7 offers an easy way to create a System Repair Disc—and you can often do this without even using an installation disc. This is a great option for situations when you don’t have an installation disc or the original system manufacturer discs readily available. Click the Start button and then in the “Search programs and files” box, type system repair disc and press enter. This launches a simple tool that will create a bootable recovery disc. Note that if all the necessary files are not available on your system, the tool may ask for a Windows 7 installation disc. But in many scenarios, this will not be required.

Configure Juniper Network Switch Backup To Remote FTP Server

JUNOS Command Line interface allows the network admin  to export or save the configuration file into an FTP server and to import or restore it back to the switch. The filename created on the FTP server  will contain hostname, date and time signature.

Login To Your Network Switch .

Enter to Edit Mode, then Run Below command :

root@network-switch# set system archival configuration transfer-on-commit archive-sites "ftp://network-switch@" password "*******"

Above command will take the backup of all  current configuration of n/w switch  to a ftp server. When Any modification are done on the switch , then backup will happen automatically in future.

Sample  File of Backup will look like below

To Restore Configuration File From FTP Server

Login to your  Switch , enter into the Edit Mode and RUN below commands :

Step:1 user@switch# edit system archival configuration

Step:2 Now Load the backup file

user@switch# load merge  ftp://username:password@<ftp-ip-address>/switch_juniper.conf.gz_20130201_141543

We should get like “load complete”

Note : The content on the ASCII file on the FTP server will be merged with the existing configuration on the switch. To replace the config file on the switch with the loaded file, use the ‘replace’ statement instead of ‘merge’
