Cisco Systems 6500-E, 6513-E Disaster Recovery for Supervisor Engines Running Cisco IOS Software

Disaster Recovery for Module Software Upgrades

Disaster Recovery for Supervisor Engines Running Catalyst Operating System Software

To perform disaster recovery on systems that use the Catalyst operating system software on the supervisor engine, perform these steps:

Step 1 Before performing the disaster recovery, remove the port adapters from the CMM.

See the “Removing and Replacing Port Adapters” section on page 19 for removal procedures.

Step 2 Enter the copy tftp [device] command to copy the golden image for the CMM to the supervisor engine flash memory where [device] can be any flash file system on the supervisor engine.

Step 3 Enter the set filename-alias[alias-name] [device]:[golden-image] command to translate the filename of the downloaded file.

The [golden-image] is the file to be downloaded, and the [device] can be any flash file system on the supervisor engine. See Table 8 for configuring the appropriate [alias-name] corresponding to the supervisor engine type in use.

Step 4 Enter the set module power down [mod] [pm_option] command to power down the CMM.

See Table 8 for configuring the appropriate [pm_option] corresponding to the supervisor engine type in use.

Step 5 Enter the set poll disable command to disable polling.

Step 6 Enter the set module power up [mod] command to power up the CMM.

When the CMM powers up, disaster recovery is complete.

Step 7 After you complete the disaster recovery, enter the clear filename-alias[alias-name] command to terminate the filename translation.

Step 8 Set the power management option for the CMM to zero (0).

This step is necessary to prevent the download mechanism from triggering every time that the CMM is reset.

Step 9 Enter the set poll enable command to enable polling.
