Installing a Second RPM

Note: If your system contains two RPMs, both RPMs must contain the same software image.

Install a second RPM either before the system is powered on or after the Primary RPM is up and stable. After the second RPM is installed, wait several seconds until the connection between the two RPMs is established before configuring any commands. Below is an example of the messages that should appear:

%POLLMGR-2-ALT_RPM_STATE: Alternate RPM is present

%IRC-6-IRC_COMMUP: Link to peer RPM is up

%RAM-6-RAM_TASK: RPM1 is in Standby State.

Once the link between the two RPMs is established, copy the running configuration to the startup configuration.

RPM Label and LEDs

Table 6 describes the RPM LED states and the RPM front panel.

Section	Label	Description

Management	10/100	L: Green: link is up
	Ethernet	A: Green: activity on port
		A: Green: activity on port

Alarms	Major	Red: a critical condition exists, such as a severe over temperature condition, a fan
		tray failure, an overcurrent condition in a power supply, or an out-of-tolerance
		voltage.
		The RPM LEDs are controlled by software which sets the threshold levels for
		triggering the different stages of alarms.
		Unlit: no major conditions

	Minor	Amber: a serious condition exists, such as an over temperature condition, a single
		fan failure, or a line card failure. The RPM LEDs are controlled by software,
		which sets the threshold levels for triggering the different stages of alarms.
		Unlit: no minor alarm conditions

	ACO/LT	Allows you to test the operability of LEDs to verify that they are able to light.
		Press the ACO/LT button to temporarily illuminate the LEDs on the RPM.
		If you press this button when the alarm status LED is lit, the alarm relay contacts are
		reset until the next alarm event.
Flash	In Use	Green: flash memory card is in the process of a read or write process. Do not
		remove the flash card when the In Use LED is lit.
		Unlit: not in use
