Hi,
When NetConf “copy-config” operation is issued with target as “url” , the operation failed with the below Error Message.
Can someone help to solve this problem?
Error Message:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<rpc-reply xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0" message-id="101">

Hi Ramith,
First enable the url capability in your confd.conf ConfD configuration file by adding the following in the <capabilities>
section of the <netconf>
section:
<url>
<enabled>true</enabled>
<file>
<rootDir>/tmp</rootDir>
</file>
</url>
See https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6241#section-8.8 for more on the url capability.
Then you send a NETCONF <copy-config>
operation like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<hello xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">
<capabilities>
<capability>urn:ietf:params:netconf:base:1.0</capability>
</capabilities>
</hello>
]]>]]>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<rpc xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0" message-id="1">
<copy-config>
<target>
<url>file:///checkpoint.config</url>
</target>
<source>
<running/>
</source>
</copy-config>
</rpc>
]]>]]>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<rpc xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0" message-id="2">
<close-session/>
</rpc>
]]>]]>
The above operation will copy the config in the running datastore to /tmp/checkpoint.config
Thanks a lot Conny.
copy-config with additional “/” for the target url solved the problem.
<target>
<url>file:///checkpoint.config</url>
</target>

Ramith
