To visually determine the active and standby designations, the Status LED on the
faceplate is lit green (steady) to indicate the active designation. The Status LED on
the second CPM faceplate is lit amber to indicate the standby designation.
The following output sample shows that the CPM installed in slot A is acting as the
active CPM and the CPM installed in slot B is acting as the standby.

6.4.2 Active and Standby Designations on 7210 SAS-Sx/
S 1/10GE in Standalone-VC Mode
On the 7210 SAS-Sx/S 1/10GE configured in the standalone-VC mode, the user
must designate and configure two nodes as CPM-IMM nodes. During boot up, one
of the configured nodes assumes the active CPM role and the other assumes the
standby CPM role. Typically, the configured CPMA-IMM node is favored to be the
active CPM and the CPMB-IMM is favored to be the standby CPM. If only one CPM-
IMM node is configured, it becomes the active CPM.
To visually determine the active and standby designations, the Master LED on the
faceplate is lit (steady) to indicate the active designation. The Master LED on the
standby CPM faceplate blinks to indicate the standby designation.
The following output sample shows two nodes configured as CPM-IMM nodes with
one becoming the active node and the other becoming the standby node.
