7
During
step 7
When downloading to
the co CPU of the
standby CP, if an error
occurs and the co CPU
reboots.
1.
When the co-CPU on the standby CP
boots up,
firmwareDownload
is
aborted.
2.
The
firmwareCommit
command will
be initiated on both CPUs on both
CPs.
3.
Both CPUs on the standby CP will
have the old firmware and both CPUs
on the active CP will have the new
firmware.
Restart
firmwareDownload
after the repair is
done.
8
During
step 6 or
7
When downloading to
any of the CPUs on the
standby CP,
downloading takes too
long and exceeds the
30 minute timeout for
the
firmwareDownload
process.
1.
The
firmwareCommit
command will
be initiated on both CPU on both CPs.
2.
Both CPUs on the standby CP will
have the old firmware and both CPUs
on the active CP will have the new
firmware.
Restart
firmwareDownload
after the repair is
done.
9
During
step 6 or
7
The active CP fails over
during the downloading
to any of the CPUs on
the standby CP.
1.
The standby CP will become the new
active CP.
2.
The
firmwareCommit
command will
be initiated on both CPUs on the
active CP and they will have the old
firmware.
3.
The
firmwareCommit
will be initiated
on both CPUs on the standby CP and
they will have the new firmware.
Restart
firmwareDownload
after the repair is
done.
10
During
step 8
If the standby CP failed
to reboot or unable to
synchronize with the
active CP.
1.
Active CP will wait for 10 minutes and
abort
firmwareDownload
.
1
The
firmwareCommit
command will
be initiated on both CPUs and they
will have the new firmware.
2.
If the standby CP boots up,
firmwareCommit
will start on both
CPUs and they will have new
firmware.
Determine why the
CPs fail to gain HA
sync and remedy it
before restarting
the
firmwareDownload
command.
11
During
step 10
If commit fails
The affected CPUs will have different
versions of firmware on its partitions. An
error message is logged.
Run the
firmwareCommit -f
command on the
switch or each CP
that fails. If the
problem persists,
contact your switch
support provider.
