How To Bring Old "wr" Command Into Cisco Nexus To Save Configs - Quick Tip

Well I always use "wr" command short for "write" onto Cisco devices to save configurations. I am just too much use to with this syntax that I even don't remember when I used other command " copy run start" last time. :)

On the flip side Cisco Nexus Series platforms don't have "wr" command.

Well the way you can solve this problem is by creating an ALIAS for "copy run start" command and it should be helpful for Operations/Support Teams as well.

In Global configuration mode run the following command:

"cli alias name wr copy running-config startup-config" 

HTH....
