If any of these settings changed during the synchronization, the standby
supervisor module automatically resets so that it is failover-ready. In earlier
versions of software, you had to manually reset the standby supervisor, if
these settings changed.
*Important: If you are updating the boot code, you must manually
reset the standby supervisor after synchronizing it
with the active supervisor.
* Note: For this automatic reset feature to work, the active and standby
supervisors must both be running v6.0 or later application
software. The first time that you synchronize the supervisor
modules after upgrading the active supervisor from a v5.x
version of software to v6.x, you must manually reset the
standby supervisor.
Resetting the Active Supervisor
After setting the switch to load the new software at startup, you must reset
the switch. You can use either the Web Agent or CLI to perform this task.
If the switch has a redundant supervisor module, resetting the Active
supervisor to load the new boot and application code forces the Active
supervisor to Standby, and the Standby supervisor to the Active Supervisor
mode. See “
Resetting the Standby Supervisor ” next to change the
Supervisor modes back to their original state.
Web Agent
Procedure To reset the switch after downloading new application software:
1. In the navigation pane, expand the System folder.
2. Select System Reset.
The System Reset Web page is displayed in the content pane ( Figure A-
4 ).
