Step 3
Under the CLI Config mode, enter the
tftp-server
[
device
]:[
golden-image
]
alias
[
alias-name
] command
to translate the filename of the downloaded file.
The [
golden-image
] is the file to be downloaded, and the [
device
] can be any flash file system on the
supervisor engine. See
Table 8
for configuring the appropriate [
alias-name
] corresponding to the
supervisor engine type in use.
Step 4
Under the CLI exec mode, enter the
hw-module module
[
mod
]
boot
[
pm_option
] command to set the
power management option for the CMM.
See
Table 8
for configuring the appropriate [
pm_option
] corresponding to the supervisor engine type in
use.
Step 5
Enter the
hw-module module
[
mod
]
reset
command to reset the module.
When the CMM powers up, disaster recovery is complete.
Step 6
After you complete the disaster recovery, under CLI config mode, enter the
no tftp-server
[
device
]:[
golden-image
] command to remove the filename translation.
Step 7
Set the power management option for the CMM to zero (0) by entering the command
hw-module
module
[
mod
]
boot config-register
.
This step is necessary to prevent the download mechanism from triggering every time that the CMM is
reset.
Password Recovery
Before performing the password recovery procedure, you must console into the CMM by performing
these steps:
Step 1
Remove the CMM from the chassis. For removal information, see the
“Removing the Module” section
on page 17
.
Note
There are two RJ-45 ports on the CMM motherboard. The second one towards the edge or end of the
motherboard is the console port.
Step 2
Connect a straight-through cable, not a regular rolled flat cable, to the console port on the motherboard.
Step 3
Remove the module directly above the CMM to allow a space for the console cable to run from the CMM
motherboard to outside of the chassis.
Step 4
Reinstall the CMM into the chassis.
Step 5
Perform the recovery procedure in
Password Recovery Procedure for the Catalyst 6500/6000
SeriesSwitches Running Cisco IOS System Software
to recover the password for the CMM.
