Figure 15-2. Example of Enabling Redundancy

 

The no version of the redundancy management-modulecommand is used to

 

disable redundancy on the switch, as seen in Figure 15-3.The show redundancy

 

command displays “Mgmt Redundancy” as disabled. The standby

 

management module in slot 1 is now offline. The management module in slot

 

2 remains the active management module.

 

 

N o t e

ProCurve recommends that you leave redundancy enabled. If the active

 

management module has a hardware failure, the standby module may take

 

over and may have an old configuration since file synchronization has not

 

occurred.

 

The redundancy management-modulecommand allows you to shut down a

 

management module that is not functioning correctly without physically

 

removing the module. However, removing the management module is the

 

recommended method.
