Configure the Redundancy Modules Chapter 6
Initiate Locked Switchover
The Initiate Locked Switchover command is available only when the chassis
redundancy state is Primary with Locked Secondary. That is, the Initiate Locked
Switchover is available only after the lock for update is complete.
Clicking Initiate Locked Switchover results in your secondary chassis assuming
control and becoming the new primary. The old primary is now the new
secondary chassis and you can update the firmware of the modules in the new
secondary chassis.

The difference between a locked switchover and a normal switchover is that the
locked switchover can be initiated only by the user. The normal switchover can be
initiated by a user or by a fault in the primary chassis.
