Cisco Systems WSC4507RE96V manual Copying Files to the Standby Supervisor Engine, Command, Purpose

Chapter 6 Configuring Supervisor Engine Redundancy on the Catalyst 4507R and 4510R Switches

Copying Files to the Standby Supervisor Engine

	Command	Purpose
Step 4	Switch# redundancy reload peer	Reloads the standby supervisor engine and bring it back
		online (running the new version of the Cisco IOS
		software).
		Note Before reloading the standby supervisor engine,
		make sure you wait long enough to ensure that all
		configuration synchronization changes have
		completed.
Step 5
	Switch# redundancy force-switchover	Conducts a manual switchover to the standby supervisor
		engine. The standby supervisor engine becomes the new
		active supervisor engine running the new Cisco IOS
		software image. The modules reload and the module
		software downloads from the new active supervisor
		engine.
		The old active supervisor engine reboots with the new
		image and becomes the standby supervisor engine.

This example shows how to perform a software upgrade:

Switch# config terminal

Switch(config)# config-register 0x2

Switch(config)# boot system flash slot0: cat4000-is-mz.121-11b.EW

Switch# copy running-config start-config

Switch# redundancy reload peer

Switch# redundancy force-switchover

Switch#

Copying Files to the Standby Supervisor Engine

Switch# copy source_device:source_filename slaveslot0:target_filename

To copy a file to the bootflash: device on a standby supervisor engine, use this command:

Switch# copy source_device:source_filename slavebootflash:target_filename
