Specifying Different Startup Images for the Active and the Standby RSPs

For software error protection, the RSPs should have different system images.

When the factory sends you a new router with two RSP8s, you receive the same system image on both RSPs. To configure the HSA feature for software error protection, you need two separate software images on the RSPs. You copy a desired image to the active RSP card and modify the boot system commands to reflect booting under two separate system images. Each RSP uses its own image to boot the router when it becomes the active RSP.

To specify different startup images for the active and the standby RSPs, use the following commands in beginning in privileged EXEC configuration mode:

 

Command

Purpose

 

 

 

Step 1

Router# dir {bootflash: slot0: slot1:}

Verifies the location and version of the active RSP

 

or

software image.

 

 

 

Router# show {bootflash: slot0: slot1:}

 

 

 

 

Step 2

Router# dir {slavebootflash: slaveslot0: slaveslot1:}

Determines whether the standby RSP contains the same

 

or

software image in the same location.

 

 

 

Router# show {slavebootflash: slaveslot0:

 

 

slaveslot1:}

 

 

 

 

Step 3

Router# copy source {bootflash: slot0: slot1:}

Copies a different system image to the active RSP.

 

 

 

Step 4

Router# configure terminal

Enters global configuration mode.
