4-10CHAPTER 4: INSTALLING AND CONNECTING COREBUILDER MODULES

To execute the RESETCFG.BAT file proceed as follows:

aPerform the LMA command (1) SYS / (3) LOA / (3) LCL / 1 to put the system in Load Mode: Load.

bReboot the switch using the LMA menu command: (1) SYS / (7) RBO. The switch will reboot in debug mode.

cTransfer the RS-232 cable to the service port of the main switch module.

dFrom a DOS window on the LMA terminal execute > resetcfg com speed

where “com” is the communications port you are using and “speed” is 115200 for a CoreBuilder 7000HD switch module and 57600 for a CoreBuilder 7000 switch module.

eTransfer the RS-232 cable to the service port of the redundant switch module.

fRepeat step d)

gTransfer the RS-232 cable to the console port of the main switch module.

Switch Module Redundancy Setup

2Set up the main switch module using the Integrated Fast Setup (see “Integrated Fast Setup” on page 6-3). Do not reboot the switch from the Integrated Fast Setup procedure (answer “no” to the prompt).

The main menu appears.

3Wait for one minute to allow the configuration data to transfer from the main switch module to the redundant switch module.

4Reboot the switch using the LMA menu sequence: (1) SYS / (7) RBO. This causes the configuration data to be recorded in flash memory and also causes the redundant switch module to become the main switch module.

5After the switch reboots, answer “no” to the prompt: “Do you wish to erase the setup parameters”.

6Run the Integrated Fast Setup procedure as in step 2) to verify that the setup parameters have been transferred correctly to the second switch (the Integrated Fast Setup procedure now displays the setup parameters resident in the second switch module). Press Enter repeatedly to verify these parameters; do not enter new values.
