Automation

Hi all,

Not sure what I am missing here, but this isn't saving to a file no matter what I've tried so far.

Option 1:

 var $config-save-command = <get-configuration save="/var/tmp/router.config">;
 var $save-rslt = jcs:execute( $jre, $config-save-command );

Option 2:

var $config-save-command = <command>"show configuration | save /var/tmp/router.config";

var $save-rslt = jsc:invoke($config-save-command);

Neither of these are creating a file in /var/tmp/ called router.config

Any thoughts?

@ed_gpc,

The <get-configuration> RPC does not support a "save" attribute (your option 1).  That would be cool, but here are the attribute options for <get-configuration> taken from our techpubs (circa 12.2)

   [changed="changed"]
   [commit-scripts="(apply | apply-no-transients | view)"]
   [compare="rollback" [rollback="[0-49]"]]
   [database="(candidate | committed)"]
   [format="(text | xml)"]
   [inherit="(defaults | inherit)"
   [groups="groups"] [interface-ranges="interface-ranges"]]
   [(junos:key | key )="key"]

What you will need to do is retrieve the contents of the configuration using the RPC and then use a or other file write RPC. There are a few options that are described in the "Mastering Junos Automation" book.  I would also recommend you download the "Junos Automation Reference for SLAX" as well.

Hope this helps!

Thanks Jeremy,

Attached is the script I ended up with.

Parts of it pulled from your ztp script!

var $config-save-command = <command>"show configuration | display omit";
			 var $save-rslt = jcs:execute( $jre, $config-save-command );
			 var $fileput-cmd = <file-put> {
				<filename> "/var/tmp/router.config";
				<permission> "644";
				<encoding> "ascii";
				<delete-if-exist>;
				<file-contents> {
				expr  $save-rslt;
			  }
			}
