Rebooting the management module

Rebooting the management module
When you complete your upgrade process, you must reboot the management module, which then
reboots the interface modules.
To reboot the management module, enter one of the following commands:
reload (this command boots from the default boot source, which is the primary code flash)
boot system flash primary | secondary
During the management module reboot, the following synchronization events occur:
When the management module has finished booting, perform the following steps:
1. Enter the show module command, and verify that the status of all interface modules is
2. Enter the show version command, and verify that all management and interface modules are
NOTE
If an interface module is in a waiting state or is running an older software image, you may have
forgotten to enter the lp cont-boot sync <slot-number> command at the Privileged EXEC prompt.

If there is a problem with your FPGA upgrade, one of the following warnings will be displayed.
WARN: Invalid FPGA version = 1.2, Build Time = 9/13/2005 13:20:0
This message indicates an FPGA version mismatch, or that one of the versions is not current.
ERROR: failed to read FPGA versions from flash
This message indicates that you have not completed a mandatory FPGA upgrade.
The system compares the monitor, primary, and secondary images on a standby management
module (if installed) to those on the active management module. If you have updated these
images on the active module, the system automatically synchronizes the images on the
standby module to match those on the active management module.
If you copied the primary and secondary IronWare image to all interface modules using the
copy command with the all keyword, the management module copied the image and stored it
in flash memory under the names lp-primary-0 or lp-secondary-0. By default, the system
compares the IronWare images on the interface modules to the images on the management
module to confirm that they are identical. (These IronWare images are stored on the
management module only and are not run by the management or interface modules.) If the
IronWare images are not identical, the system gives you the following options:
-
Replace the IronWare images in interface module flash memory with the images in the
management module flash memory by entering the lp cont-boot sync <slot-number>
command at the Privileged EXEC prompt.
-
To retain the IronWare images in the interface module flash memory, enter the
-
lp cont-boot no-sync <slot-number> command at the Privileged EXEC prompt.
