Enabling or Disabling Redundant ManagementYou can enable or disable redundant management using this command:Syntax: [no] redundancy management-module

Allows enabling or disabling of redundant management. The current active module continues to be the active module on boot unless you use the redundancy active-managementcommand to make the other module the active module.

You are prompted with “All configuration files and software images on the off-line management module will be overwritten with the data from the current active management module. Do you want to continue [y/n]?” The no version of the command disables redundant management. You are prompted with this message: “The other management module will no longer be used for system redundancy except in the case of a HW failure of the active management module. Do you want to continue [y/n]?”. Selecting “n” disables redundant management.

The redundancy management-modulecommand in Figure 15-2shows redundant management being enabled. The show redundancy command displays “Mgmt Redundancy” as enabled. Management Module 1 is the standby management module and Management Module 2 is the active management module.
