In the admin>redundancy context, this command performs a manually triggered standby CPM
synchronization. When the standby CPM takes over operation following a failure or reset of the active CPM,
it is important to ensure that the active and standby CPM have identical operational parameters. This
includes the saved configuration, CPM and IOM images.
The active CPM ensures that the active configuration is maintained on the standby CPM. However, to ensure
smooth operation under all circumstances, runtime images and system initialization configurations must also
be automatically synchronized between the active and standby CPM. If synchronization fails, alarms and log
messages that indicate the type of error that caused the failure of the synchronization operation are
generated. When the error condition ceases to exist, the alarm is cleared.
Only files stored on the router are synchronized. If a configuration file or image is stored in a location other
than on a local compact flash, the file is not synchronized (for example, storing a configuration file on an
FTP server).
The no form of the command removes the parameter from the configuration.
Default none
Parameters boot-env — Synchronizes all files required for the boot process (loader, BOF, images, and config).
config — Synchronizes only the primary, secondary, and tertiary configuration files.
