7750 SR OS Basic System Configuration Guide Page 387
Parameters seconds — Specifies the BGP multi-homing boot-timer in seconds.
Values 1 — 100
site-activation-timer
Syntax site-activation-timer seconds
no site-activation-timer
Context config>redundancy>bgp-multi-homing
Description This command defines the amount of time the service manager will keep the local sites in standby
status, waiting for BGP updates from remote PEs before running the DF election algorithm to decide
whether the site should be unblocked. The timer is started when one of the following events occurs if
the site is operationally up:
• Manual site activation using the no shutdown command at site-id level or at member object(s)
level (SAP(s) or PW(s))
• Site activation after a failure
Default no site-activation-timer
Parameters seconds — Specifies the standby status in seconds.
Values 1 — 100
Default 2
synchronize
Syntax synchronize {boot-env | config}
Context config>redundancy
Description
This command performs a synrchonization of the standby
CPM’s images and/or config files to the
active
CPM. Either the boot-env or config parameter must be specified.
In the config>redundancy context, this command performs an automatically triggered standby
CPM
synchronization. When the standby
CPM takes over operation following a failure or reset of the
active
CPM, it is important to ensure that the active and standby CPMs have identical operational
parameters. This includes the saved configuration,
CPM and IOM images.
The active
CPM ensures that the active configuration is maintained on the standby CPM. However,
to ensure smooth operation under all circumstances, runtime images and system initialization
configurations must also be automatically synchronized between the active and standby
CPM.
If synchronization fails, alarms and log messages that indicate the type of error that caused the failure
of the synchronization operation are generated. When the error condition ceases to exist, the alarm is
cleared.
