Note
If you have not changed either the hardware configuration or the type of load
memory on the standby CPU a master/standby switch-over is still carried out and
the previous master CPU switches to STOP mode.
Switch to CPU with expanded memory configuration
You may have made the following memory modifications on the standby CPU:
• expansion of the main memory and/or
• expansion of the load memory – in so doing you must have load memory
module of the same type, i.e. either RAM cards or FLASH cards; in the case of
FLASH cards the content must agree.
On link-up the user program blocks (OBs, FCs, FBs, DBs, SDBs) of the master are
copied from the load memory and the main memory to the standby (exception: if
the load memory modules are FLASH cards only the blocks from the main memory
are copied).
The steps to be performed in the above-mentioned scenarios (expansion of the
main memory, expansion of the load memory) are described in Chapter 11.
Notice
If you have changed the type of load memory or the operating system on the
standby CPU this will not switch to RUN mode but instead will relapse into STOP
mode with a corresponding diagnostics buffer entry.
If you have expanded neither the main memory nor the load memory on the
standby CPU this will not switch to RUN mode but instead will relapse into STOP
mode with a corresponding diagnostics buffer entry.
No master/standby switch-over will take place and the CPU that has been the
master CPU up to that point will remain in RUN mode.
