•
The following sections explain how to perform these tasks.
Comparing and synchronizing files
You can initiate a comparison of the flash code, system-config file, and running-config file on the
active management module with the same files on the standby module and synchronize the files
immediately if differences exist. When you synchronize the files, the active module copies its files
to the standby module, replacing the files on the standby module.
