Configuring Rollback
Implementing a Rollback
You can implement a rollback to a checkpoint name or file. Before you implement a rollback, you can view
the differences between source and destination checkpoints that reference current or saved configurations.
Note
If you make a configuration change during an atomic rollback, the rollback will fail.
Procedure
Step 1
Step 2
This example shows how to create a checkpoint file and then implements an atomic rollback to a user checkpoint
name:
switch# checkpoint stable
switch# rollback running-config checkpoint stable atomic
Verifying the Rollback Configuration
To display the rollback configuration, perform one of the following tasks:
Command or Action
Example:
switch# show checkpoint stable
Command or Action
show diff rollback-patch {checkpoint src-cp-name |
running-config | startup-config | file source-file}
{checkpoint dest-cp-name | running-config |
startup-config | file dest-file}
Example:
switch# show diff rollback-patch checkpoint
stable
running-config
rollback running-config {checkpoint cp-name | file
cp-file} atomic
Example:
switch# rollback running-config checkpoint stable

Displays the differences between the
source and destination checkpoint
selections.
Creates an atomic rollback to the
specified checkpoint name or file if no
errors occur.
