Rebooting Multiple Managed Spines using the CLI

In a redundant management configuration (9080, 9120 and 9240) it may occasionally be necessary for the user to reboot both managed spines in a hemisphere. This is accomplished through the CLI of the master spine.

1.Access the master spine CLI via Telnet, SSH, or through the switch RS232 serial ports.

2.The system prompts for a user name. At the prompt enter:

admin

3. The system prompts for a password. At the prompt enter:

adminpass

The system responds with:

Welcome to the <SWITCH> CLI. Type 'list' for the list of commands.

4. To reboot multiple spines enter the following command:

reboot now -m -n

where:

❥now initiates the reboot process as soon as the user presses Enter (i.e., no system y/n prompt).

❥-mreboots just the management card of the master spine. This is a non-disruptive reboot (i.e., the reboot will not interfere with any switch traffic).

❥-nreboots just the management card of the slave spine (in a non-disruptive manner).

NOTE: If accessing the CLI through Telnet or SSH, the user will need to reconnect to the CLI following the reboot.
