Chapter 12 Configuring Supervisor Engine Redundancy Using RPR and SSO on Supervisor Engine 7-E, Supervisor
Performing a Manual Switchover
Note Configuration changes made to the active supervisor engine through SNMP are not synchronized to the
redundant supervisor engine. For information on how to handle this situation, see the “Supervisor Engine
Redundancy Guidelines and Restrictions” section on page 12-5.
Note The auto-sync command controls the synchronization of the config-reg, bootvar, and startup/private
configuration files only. The calendar and VLAN database files are always synchronized when they
change. In SSO mode, the running-config is always synchronized.
This example shows how to reenable the default automatic synchronization feature using the auto-sync
standard command to synchronize the startup-config and config-register configuration of the active
supervisor engine with the standby supervisor engine. Updates for the boot variables are automatic and
cannot be disabled.
Switch(config)# redundancy
Switch(config-red)# main-cpu
Switch(config-r-mc)# auto-sync standard
Switch(config-r-mc)# end
Switch# copy running-config startup-config
Note To manually synchronize individual elements of the standard auto-sync configuration, disable the default
automatic synchronization feature.
Note When you configure the auto-sync standard, the individual sync options such as no auto-sync
startup-config are ignored.
This example shows how to disable default automatic synchronization and allow only automatic
synchronization of the config-registers of the active supervisor engine to the standby supervisor engine,
while disallowing synchronization of the startup configuration:
Switch(config)# redundancy
Switch(config-red)# main-cpu
Switch(config-r-mc)# no auto-sync standard
Switch(config-r-mc)# auto-sync config-register
Switch(config-r-mc)# end
Performing a Manual Switchover
This section describes how to perform a manual switchover (from the active supervisor engine to the
standby supervisor engine) for test purposes. We recommend that you perform a manual switchover prior
to deploying SSO in your production environment.
Note This discussion assumes that SSO has been configured as the redundant mode.
