Cisco Systems RSP8 manual Routerconfig# hw-module slot slot-numberimage file-spec

Enabling High Availability Features

To configure RPR and RPR+, use the following commands beginning in privileged EXEC configuration

	mode:
	Command	Purpose
Step 1
	Router# configure terminal	Enters global configuration mode.
Step 2
	Router(config)# hw-module slot slot-numberimage file-spec	Specifies the image to be used by the active RSP at
		initialization. If a high-availability image is found,
		the running configuration is updated.
		• slot-number—Specifies the active RSP slot
		where the Flash memory card or Flash Disk is
		located. Valid numbers are slot 2 or slot 3 for a
		Cisco 7507 router or slot 6 or slot 7 for a Cisco
		7513 router.
		• file-spec—Indicates the flash device and the
		name of the image on the active RSP.
		Note Step 2 and Step 3 are the same; Step 2
		applies to the active RSP and Step 3 applies
		to the standby RSP.
Step 3
	Router(config)# hw-module slot slot-numberimage file-spec	Specifies the image to be used by the standby RSP
		at initialization. If a high-availability image is
		found, the running configuration is updated.
		• slot-number—Specifies the standby RSP slot
		where the Flash memory card or Flash Disk is
		located. Valid numbers are slot 2 or slot 3 for a
		Cisco 7507 router or slot 6 or slot 7 for a Cisco
		7513 router.
		• file-spec—Indicates the Flash device and the
		name of the image on the standby RSP.
		Note Step 2 and Step 3 are the same; Step 2
		applies to the active RSP and Step 3 applies
		to the standby RSP.
Step 4
	Router(config)# redundancy	Enters redundancy configuration mode.
Step 5
	Router(config-red)# mode rpr (Or mode rpr-plus)	Sets the redundancy mode to RPR (or RPR+) on
		both the active and standby RSPs. HSA is the
		default redundancy mode.
Step 6
	Router(config-red)# exit	Exits redundancy configuration mode and returns
		you to global configuration mode.
Step 7
	Router(config)# end	Exits global configuration mode and returns you to
		privileged EXEC configuration mode.
Step 8
	Router# hw-module sec-cpu reset	Resets and reloads the standby RSP with the
		specified Cisco IOS image and executes the image.
		Note If you do not specify a Cisco IOS image in
		Step 2, this command loads and executes
		the bundled default IOS standby image.
		The system then operates in HSA mode.
