Chapter 23 Configuring Redundancy
Configuring Redundant Supervisor Engines on the Switch
Example 2: File copied, bootflash modified, standby supervisor engine not reset
The configuration for this example is as follows:
• The active supervisor engine configuration is as follows:
– Run-time image: bootflash:f1
– Bootstring: bootflash:f1,1;
– Bootflash: f1,f2
• The standby supervisor engine configuration is as follows:
– Run-time image: bootflash:f1
– Bootstring: bootflash:f1,1;
– Bootflash: f1
• The time stamp for f1 on the active supervisor engine is the same as f1 on the standby supervisor
engine.
• You modify the active supervisor engine bootstring to the following: f2,1;.
• The expected results are as follows:
– The active supervisor engine copies its f2 image to the standby supervisor engine and renames
it BTSYNC_f2.
– The standby supervisor engine bootflash is modified to the following: f1, BTSYNC_f2.
– The standby supervisor engine bootstring is modified to the following:
bootflash:BTSYNC_f2,1;f1,1;.
– The standby supervisor engine is not reset.
Example 3: File not copied, bootstring modified, standby supervisor engine not reset
The configuration for this example is as follows:
• The active supervisor engine configuration is as follows:
– Run-time image: bootflash:f1
– Bootstring: bootflash:f1,1;
– Bootflash: f1,f2
• The standby supervisor engine configuration is as follows:
– Run-time image: bootflash:f1
– Bootstring: bootflash:f1,1;
– Bootflash: f1,f2
• The time stamp for f1 on the active supervisor engine is the same as f1 on the standby supervisor
engine; the time stamp for f2 on the active supervisor engine is the same as f2 on the standby
supervisor engine.
• The active supervisor engine bootstring is modified to the following: f2,1; f1,1;.
