<copy-config>

To <copy-config> BOF configurations, the ‟bof” <configuration-region> must be specified within the <copy-config> RPC <source> and <target>. For example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<rpc message-id="101" xmlns:nc="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">
<copy-config>
          <target>
                  <configuration-region>bof</configuration-region>
                  <startup/>
          </target>
          <source>
                  <configuration-region>bof</configuration-region>
                  <running/>
          </source>
</copy-config>
</rpc>
]]>]]>

Note:

When <copy-config> RPC is used with the ‟bof” <configuration-region>, only the following combinations are supported:

<source>config</source> and <target>candidate</target>
<source>running</source> and <target>startup</target>

To <copy-config> LI configurations, the ‟li” <configuration-region> must be specified within the <copy-config> RPC <source> and <target>. When the <configuration-region> is ‟li” or ‟bof”, SR OS can only <copy-config> from the <running> datastore to the <startup> datastore. For example:

<copy-config>
  <target>
    <configuration-region>li</configuration-region>
    <startup/>
  </target>
  <source>
    <configuration-region>li</configuration-region>
    <running/>
  </source>
</copy-config>

Performing a <copy-config> between datastores from different <configuration-region> is not allowed. Mismatching the source or target <configuration-region> causes SR OS to return an error.

Alternatively, the <target>/<source> can be specified in the format of ‟configuration-region”-‟datastore”. For example:

<copy-config>
  <target><li-startup/></target>
  <source><li-running/></source>
</copy-config>

When both the <configuration-region> and the ‟configuration-region”-‟datastore” format are used, SR OS applies the last tag used in the XML request. For example:

<copy-config>
  <target>
    <configuration-region>configure</configuration-region>
    <li-startup/>
  </target>
  <source>
    <configuration-region>configure</configuration-region>
    <li-running/>
  </source>
</copy-config>

In the preceding example, the <copy-config> is used to copy the configuration data from the ‟li” <running> datastore to the ‟li” <startup> datastore.
