Executing Large Commit Scripts
When you use large commit scripts, the standard commit model can have trouble reading these scripts. When this occurs, you can include the direct-access statement at the [edit system scripts commit] hierarchy level. When the direct-access statement is included, the script driver retrieves the candidate configuration directly from the configuration database. Once the candidate configuration is retrieved, the script driver processes this configuration file against the commit scripts and returns any generated actions to the management (mgd) process.
Directly accessing the configuration data and processing non-XML converted data are processor-intensive compared to the standard commit model. You should only use this feature to handle large files, because system performance is affected.
To set the script driver to directly access the candidate configuration, include the direct-access statement at the [edit system scripts commit] hierarchy level.
