Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Reloading Switches
OmniSwitch 6850 Series Hardware Users Guide September 2009 page 4-29
If there are only two switches in the stack, the switch that was reloaded (the former secondary) resumes
the secondary role when it comes back up.
Reloading the Secondary Management Module In a Stack of Two
In this stack of two OmniSwitch 6850 Series switches, the slot 1
switch is the primary management module. The slot 2 switch is
the secondary.
The user reloads the stack’s secondary management module by
issuing the
reload secondary command. Any data flow on the
secondary switch’s Ethernet is interrupted.
As the secondary switch reboots, the primary management mod-
ule continues to operate without interruption. Meanwhile the
stack has no interim secondary management module as the switch
reboots.
