Managing CMM Modules
Refer to the “Managing CMM Directory Content” chapter in the
Switch Management Guide
for detailed
information on managing CMM modules.
Reloading a CMM Module
You can reload either the primary or secondary CMM module using the CLI’s
reload
command. For
information on using this command, refer to the “Managing CMM Directory Content” chapter in the
Switch Management Guide
. A CMM reload is essentially a soft boot of the module. Note that you can
reload only one CMM module at a time; the primary and secondary CMMs cannot be reloaded
simultaneously.
Reloading the Primary CMM
If the primary CMM is reloaded, the secondary CMM automatically takes over primary management
functions. In other words, the secondary CMM becomes the primary CMM as soon as the reload is
initiated. The reloaded CMM then assumes the secondary—or
redundant
—role when the reload sequence
is complete.
Reloading the Secondary CMM
If the secondary CMM is reloaded, only the secondary CMM is affected. The primary CMM continues all
operations without interruption.
