Auto-recovery of the IRF virtual device when the IRF link is repaired
If the IRF virtual device in the active state fails due to exceptions (a member fails or link failure occurs,
for example) before the IRF link is recovered, as shown in
Figure 1-12
, enable IRF virtual device 2 (in
the recovery state) at the CLI by executing the
mad restore
command. Then, the state of IRF virtual
device 2 changes from recovery to active without the need of rebooting and takes over IRF virtual
device 1. Repair the IRF links. Two IRF virtual devices merge when the IRF link failure is recovered,
and the merged IRF virtual device recovers after the role election.
