COPYCONF 

Copies a configuration subtree.

Syntax 

COPYCONF srcpath[:srcfile][,[destpath][:destfile]] [;KEEP][;NOVERS]

Parameters 

srcpath               The name of a configuration path in the source file
                      that describes the location of the subtree to copy
                      (source path).  It is composed of one to eight path
                      identifiers separated by periods:

                      pathid.pathid.pathid...

srcfile               The name of an NMMGR configuration file (NCONF
                      file) that contains the subtree to be copied
                      (source file).  The format is:

                      filename[.groupname[.accountname]]

                      A file lockword may not be specified.  A file
                      equation may be employed through explicit use of
                      the back-reference:

                      *DESIGNATOR

destpath              The name of the path that describes where the
                      subtree is to be placed in the destination file
                      (destination path), in the same format as srcpath.
                      Select and type-select path identifiers may be
                      changed from the corresponding identifier in
                      srcpath as long as the new identifier is
                      type-compatible.  If this parameter is not
                      specified, the destination path is assumed to be
                      the same as the path specified in srcpath.

destfile              The name of an NMMGR configuration file that is to
                      receive the copied data (destination file).  The
                      format is the same as srcfile.  This file name may
                      be the same as that specified in srcfile, which
                      allows you to copy data from one location within a
                      file to another location in the same file.  If this
                      parameter is not specified, the destination file is
                      assumed to be the same as the source file.

KEEP                  Designates that if the destpath already exists in
                      destfile, the operation will not be performed.  The
                      default (when KEEP is not specified) is to replace
                      the destination subtree with the source path.

NOVERS                Designates that no version check will be performed
                      on the source or destination paths.  The default is
                      to perform version checks.

Description 

COPYCONF allows data to be copied from one configuration file into
another file, or into the same file in a different location.  Source and
destination paths are used to direct where a subtree is to come from and
where it is to be copied to.  (You can also copy a configuration subtree
using the NMMGR Configuration Subtree Copy screen in screen mode.)

Example 

To copy data from one file into another file using the same path (note
that although shown as two lines here, the command must be entered in one
line):

     NMMGR>COPYCONF NETXPORT.NI.LAN1.INTERNET:FILEA,NETXPORT.NI.LAN1.INTERNET;FILEB

To copy data to a different path in the same file:

NMMGR>COPYCONF LINKCONF.LINK1:FILEA, LINKCONF.LINK2:FILEA
