Example 3: File not copied, bootstring modified, standby supervisor engine not reset
The configuration for this example is as follows:

OL-8978-04
The active supervisor engine configuration is as follows:
–
Run-time image:
bootflash:f1
–
Bootstring:
bootflash:f1,1;
Bootflash:
–
f1,f2
The standby supervisor engine configuration is as follows:
Run-time image:
–
bootflash:f1
Bootstring:
–
bootflash:f1,1;
Bootflash:
–
f1
The time stamp for f1 on the active supervisor engine is the same as f1 on the standby supervisor
engine.
You modify the active supervisor engine bootstring to the following: f2,1;.
The expected results are as follows:
The active supervisor engine copies its f2 image to the standby supervisor engine and renames
–
it BTSYNC_f2.
The standby supervisor engine bootflash is modified to the following: f1, BTSYNC_f2.
–
The standby supervisor engine bootstring is modified to the following:
–
bootflash:BTSYNC_f2,1;f1,1;.
The standby supervisor engine is not reset.
–
The active supervisor engine configuration is as follows:
Run-time image:
–
bootflash:f1
Bootstring:
–
bootflash:f1,1;
Bootflash:
–
f1,f2
The standby supervisor engine configuration is as follows:
Run-time image:
–
bootflash:f1
Bootstring:
–
bootflash:f1,1;
–
Bootflash:
f1,f2
The time stamp for f1 on the active supervisor engine is the same as f1 on the standby supervisor
engine; the time stamp for f2 on the active supervisor engine is the same as f2 on the standby
supervisor engine.
The active supervisor engine bootstring is modified to the following: f2,1; f1,1;.
