Managing chassis failover Failover is applicable in dual management module configuration and is the process of transferring the active role to the standby management module. Reboot the active management module and re-initialize the stand-by management module to assume the active role. The failover operation takes up to 10 minutes for completion. OME-Modular is unavailable during this process. You must have the chassis administrator privilege to start a failover. NOTE: After a failover, the chassis management performance returns to normal in a few minutes. NOTE: During a failover, the chassis power state on the OME-Modular GUI is displayed as "off". The original power state is displayed after the inventory is refreshed. To start a failover: On the chassis Overview page, click More Actions > Failover. A message is displayed stating that the system cannot be accessed during a failover. Troubleshooting in chassis The Troubleshoot option on the OME-Modular home page enables you to use the following options to resolve issues that occur in the chassis: ● Extract Log-Use this option to extract application logs and save them to the NFS or CIFS locations on the network. ● Diagnostic Commands-Use this option to run diagnostic commands and parameters to troubleshoot the chassis network. ● Reset Management Module-Use this option to reboot the management module (MM) in a single management module configuration, and perform a failover in a dual MM configuration. NOTE: During a factory reset process, the synchronization takes about 3-5 minutes. During this period, the serial, KVM, and Quick Sync interfaces do not accept the factory password and the login attempt fails. ● Terminate Serial Connection-Use this option to end the existing serial sessions. Blinking LEDs You can use the Blink LED option on the OME-Modular home page to turn off or turn on the chassis LED. Interfaces to access OME-Modular After configuring the network settings in OME-Modular, you can remotely access OME-Modular using various interfaces. The following table lists the interfaces that you can use to remotely access OME-Modular. Table 8. Management module Interfaces Interface Description Web interface Provides remote access to OME-Modular using a graphical user interface. The web interface is built into the OME-Modular firmware and is accessed through the NIC interface from a supported web browser on the management station. The number of user sessions that are allowed for each interface is: ● Web interface - 6 ● RESTful API - 32 ● SSH - 4 Logging in to OME-Modular 43

Managing chassis failover
Failover is applicable in dual management module configuration and is the process of transferring the active role to the standby
management module. Reboot the active management module and re-initialize the stand-by management module to assume the
active role. The failover operation takes up to 10 minutes for completion. OME–Modular is unavailable during this process. You
must have the chassis administrator privilege to start a failover.
NOTE:
After a failover, the chassis management performance returns to normal in a few minutes.
NOTE:
During a failover, the chassis power state on the OME–Modular GUI is displayed as "off". The original power state is
displayed after the inventory is refreshed.
To start a failover:

A message is displayed stating that the system cannot be accessed during a failover.
Troubleshooting in chassis
The Troubleshoot option on the OME–Modular home page enables you to use the following options to resolve issues that occur

During a factory reset process, the synchronization takes about 3-5 minutes. During this period, the serial, KVM,
and Quick Sync interfaces do not accept the factory password and the login attempt fails.
●
Terminate Serial Connection—Use this option to end the existing serial sessions.
