352CHAPTER 10: MANAGING WX SYSTEM IMAGES AND CONFIGURATIONS

Deploying Switch You can deploy changes immediately or schedule them to be deployed Configuration later.

Changes

When you deploy changes to a WX, all of the changes are sent as a single transaction. If any parameter is unsuccessfully changed, the entire transaction is rolled back. If the transaction is successful, the configuration changes are immediately and dynamically put into effect. (A reboot is not required.)

The following procedures provide steps for deploying configuration changes from the Devices tab. You also can immediately deploy changes from the Configuration tab, by clicking Deploy.

To immediately deploy local changes

1Select the Devices tool bar option.

2At the bottom of the Task List panel, select Change Management.

3Select one or more WX switches.

To select multiple switches, press Shift (for contiguous switches) or Control (for noncontiguous switches) while clicking.

4In the Local Changes group in the Task List panel, click Deploy. The Deploy Configurations dialog box appears.

The dialog lists the switches that have configuration changes.

5Select the switches to which you want to deploy the changes.

To select more than one WX, click Shift while clicking to select contiguous items, or click Ctrl while clicking to select noncontiguous items.

6Click Deploy.

The deployment status for each affected WX is shown in the History window at the bottom left of the dialog box.

3WXM performs verification of the changes. If errors occur, they are listed in the Selected Errors at the bottom right of the dialog box. If there are errors, fix them and verify the changes before trying to deploy again. (You can use the Verification tab to fix the errors. See “” on page 363.)

If the deploy is successful, 3WXM also instructs the WX switch to save the changes in its configuration file.

7Click Close.
