Backing up configurations to USB drive in ASA5505

[somashekhar G]

Hi,

I connected USB drive (16 GB, FAT32) at front port of CISCO ASA5505 router. Tried to export running configurations to pen drive using following commands from CLI. I can't use ASDM since HTTP server is disabled on router. 

copy /noconfirm running-config usbflash0 --> Showed some copy progress but nothing saved in USB drive.
copy /noconfirm running-config usbflash0:/new-running.cfg --> Displayed error
copy /noconfirm disk0:/new-running.cfg disk1:/new-running.cfg  --> Displayed error

I am able to save it to local flash drive of the router using below command,

copy /noconfirm running-config disk0:/new-running.cfg

Could you please help if I am missing anything.

Thanks...

              What do you mean by Displayed error -> What is the error that you see ?

Hi,

Sorry, I missed to mention the error.

It is throwing below error

"ciscoasa# copy /noconfirm running-config usbflash0:/new-running.cfg

                                                                   ^
ERROR: % Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

Thanks

It sounds like the USB drive isn't being recognized by the ASA. I think this works on an ASA as well as IOS, but I have found this command very helpful to see what file systems are available. "dir /all all"
