A-48 Issue 4 May 2002
Inconsistent Software Versions on a Duplicated
Switch
Inconsistent software, as indicated by a failure in the data consistency test, can be
caused by problems copying the update file to the standby or validation test
failures on the standby. Unlike the tape or MIPS systems which revert to the same
version of software as a result of a refresh, a flash system remains inconsistent
until manually initiated steps are taken. Use the list config software command to
determine the status of the vintages, patch identifiers and patch file data on both
the active and standby processor.
1. If one processor looks as if it has been patched (updated patch identifier
and no update file) and the other looks as if the patch file is still present (no
patch identifier and valid update file), the application of the patch can be
forced by making that processor active and requesting the system restart
indicated in the accompanying documentation.
2. If one processor has a copy of the update file and the other doesn’t (neither
has been patched), the file can be copied using the command copy
update-file.
3. If patch identifiers disagree but neither side has a valid update file, the
missing patch should be redownloaded to the system. During the download
process the file will pass the vintage test and be copied to the standby
processor. Validation tests will then be run on both machines. On the next
restart, the patch will be applied to memory. This procedure is less
disruptive to the customer if the unpatched processor is the standby at the
time of the restart.
