HP 9304m Installation And Getting Started Manual page 68

4. Select slot number from the Slot pulldown menu.
Slots in a 4-slot chassis are numbered 1 – 4, from top to bottom.
Slots in an 8-slot chassis are numbered 1 – 8, from left to right.
Slots in a 15-slot chassis are numbered 1 – 15, from left to right.
NOTE: The slots in a 15-slot chassis are divided among 4 internal regions . Slots 1 – 4 belong to the same
region; slots 5 – 8 belong to the same region; slots 9 – 12 belong to the same region, and slots 13 – 15 belong
to the same region. If you are using redundant management modules, HP recommends that you place both
management modules in slots belonging to the same region. For example, if you place one management
module in slot 5, HP requires that you place the other management module in slot 6, 7, or 8.
This note does not apply to 4-slot or 8-slot Chassis devices.
5. Select the module type from the Module Type pulldown menu.
6. Click the Add button to save the change to the device's running-config file.
7. Select the Save link at the bottom of the dialog. Select Yes when prompted to save the configuration change
to the startup-config file on the device's flash memory.
The configuration change is saved to the active redundant management module's startup-config file. (The
change is automatically sent to the standby module when the active module's system-config file is copied to
the standby module.)
NOTE: You also can access the dialog for saving configuration changes by clicking on Command in the tree
view, then clicking on Save to Flash.
Specifying the Default Active Module
By default, the redundant management module in the lower slot number becomes the active redundant
management module when you start the system. For example, if you install redundant management modules in
slots 1 and 8 in an HP 9308M chassis, the default active module is the module in slot 1.
NOTE:
Slots in a 4-slot chassis are numbered 1 – 4, from top to bottom.
Slots in an 8-slot chassis are numbered 1 – 8, from top to bottom.
Slots in a 15-slot chassis are numbered 1 – 15, from left to right.
You can override the default and specify the active module.
NOTE: The change does not take effect until you reload the system. If you save the change to the active
module's system-config file before reloading, the change persists across system reloads. Otherwise, the change
affects only the next system reload.
USING THE CLI
To override the default and specify the active redundant management module, enter the following commands:
HP9300(config)# redundancy
HP9300(config-redundancy)# active-management 5
Syntax: active-management <slot-num>
The <slot-num> parameter specifies the chassis slot:
• Slots in a 4-slot chassis are numbered 1 – 4, from top to bottom.
• Slots in an 8-slot chassis are numbered 1 – 8, from left to right.
