This command executes the validation of the configuration currently in use.
Configuration validating has been introduced to ensure correct Abilis CPX configurations.
The output of the validating procedure can be:
Positive without demanding modifications to the configuration (if the command is successful the message “VALIDATION SUCCESSFULLY EXECUTED” will be also shown);
Negative if the validation detects some incongruencies or imprecision in it (if the command is unsuccessful the message “VALIDATION FAILED” will be shown).
[11:28:08] ABILIS_CPX:
validate
VALIDATION IN PROGRESS ... WARNING: RES:Tcp Changed "SESNUM" from 12 to 22 VALIDATION SUCCESSFULLY EXECUTED
This command saves the current configuration in the file
drivers.cfg
on the disk only if validation is
successful.
If the validation and saving are both successful the message “SAVE EXECUTED” will be shown. If the validation fails, the saving is NOT executed and the message “SAVE NOT EXECUTED” will be shown.
[18:09:29] ABILIS_CPX:

The configuration is saved and marked with a configuration state of “configuration saved but not yet loaded”. On the next restart, if the settings of the saved configuration were correct, the configuration state will become “valid configuration”.
Checking the current configuration state is done through the
command d i. In the correspondence of the
drivers.cfg
file, in the notes dedicated section,
the string “Saved” will appear.

Save Conf command can be also used with the syntax: save conf <version>.
It allows creating a copy of the configuration file DRIVERS.CFG of the specified version directory. The <version> string must correspond to an existing version directory in the form 'X.Y.Z' or 'X-Y-Z' or 'Y.Z' or 'Y-Z' or 'Y', where X, Y and Z are decimal digit [0 - 9] (E.g. 8-5-0)
It can be useful after a system update and the installation of a compatible release.

If your Abilis is currently running version 8.8.2 or newer you can save
DRIVERS.CFG
directly in 8.9.0 version, you will
just be warned, otherwise you have to copy it there by some other way,
e.g. using file copy command or
FTP.
Example of save conf
from 8.8.2 to 8.9.0, when 8.9.0 does not contain a correct
drivers.cfg
.
[20:12:57] ABILIS_CPX:save conf 8.9.0
TARGET VERSION IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH THE RUNNING VERSION
BUT THE CONFIGURATION WILL BE CONVERTED WHEN TARGET VERSION WILL START.

In the system log of 8.9.0 you will find messages like these:

The command save conf backup is used to
create a backup copy (file drivers.bck
) of the
configuration saved on disk. The backup configuration is loaded at the
Abilis CPX start, every time the one, saved in
drivers.cfg
, isn't valid or the same file is
missing or corrupted.
Indeed, it's very important that the User makes backup only of those configurations correctly working.

THE CURRENT SAVED CONFIGURATION WILL BECOME THE BACKUP CONFIGURATION. PROCEED (N/Y)?y PROCEEDING WITH SAVE BACKUP... SAVE BACKUP EXECUTED
