Standby Supervisor Fails to Boot
The standby supervisor does not boot after an upgrade. You may see the following system message:
SYSMGR-2-STANDBY_BOOT_FAILED
This message is printed if the standby supervisor does not complete its boot procedure (does not reach the
login prompt on the local console) 3 to 6 minutes after the loader has been loaded by the BIOS. This message
is usually caused by boot variables not properly set for the standby supervisor. This message can also be
caused by a user intentionally interrupting the boot procedure at the loader prompt (by pressing ESC).
Connect to the local console of the standby supervisor. If the supervisor is at the loader prompt, try to use the
boot command to continue the boot procedure. Otherwise, enter the reload command for the standby supervisor
from a vsh session on the active supervisor, specifying the force-dnld option. Once the standby is online, fix
the problem by setting the boot variables appropriately.
