Supervisor Redundancy

The Supervisor Redundancy feature reduces unplanned downtime. It enables a quicker switchover between active and standby Supervisors when a fatal error occurs on the active Supervisor. When you configure Supervisor Redundancy, the standby Supervisor is synchronized with the active Supervisor. If a fatal error occurs on the active Supervisor, the system immediately switches to the standby Supervisor.

  • Both Supervisors must be running identical software releases.

Information About Supervisor Redundancy

The Supervisor redundancy feature enables the Cisco cBR router to use two Supervisors in a redundant configuration, so that if the active Supervisor fails or becomes inactive, the system automatically performs a switchover , where the standby Supervisor takes over and assumes full responsibility for systems operations.

The Supervisor redundancy feature does not require a full reboot of the system to perform a switchover. When the system boots up, the standby Supervisor performs full initialization, which includes self initialization, running configuration synchronization from the active Supervisor, and SSO feature data synchronization from the active Supervisor, then it enters into hot standby state and monitors the active Supervisor. If the standby Supervisor detects a failure in the active Supervisor, it can quickly assume the active responsibility for systems operations.

Each Supervisor contains all the resources required to operate the router, such as bootflash memory, hard disks, Ethernet ports, and console port. In the default operation, the standby Supervisor also synchronizes the major systems files, such as the running configuration file, so that during a switchover, the standby Supervisor can duplicate the active Supervisor’s configuration.

You can use Cisco IOS CLI commands to access the standby Supervisor resources, such as the bootflash and hard disk. For example, you can use the dir command to list the contents of a device, or use the copy command to transfer files between the active and standby Supervisor.

Switchover Procedure

A switchover occurs when the standby Supervisor takes over responsibilities from the active Supervisor. The switchover can occur automatically if the standby Supervisor has determined that the active Supervisor has failed, or an operator can initiate a manual switchover whenever desired.

A switchover triggers the following events:

  1. If this is a manual switchover, the active Supervisor verifies that the standby Supervisor is present and has entered into SSO. If so, it instructs the standby Supervisor to begin switchover procedures, and the active Supervisor either attempts to reload its configured Cisco IOS software image or enters ROM monitor mode, depending on the setting of its configuration register.

  2. The standby Supervisor assumes responsibility as the active Supervisor and brings the Cisco cBR chassis into active state, and continues the service as active Supervisor.

  3. The new active Supervisor begins normal systems operations, including passing traffic.


    Note

    The Supervisor does not begin functioning as a standby Supervisor until it is booted up with a proper Cisco IOS software.

Is Supervisor Switchover Failing?

The usual phenomenon for a Supervisor switchover to be affected is when the active Supervisor has these issues:

  • Supervisor hangs

  • Login to Supervisor console or Telnet to chassis fails

  • Interface cards unable to connect to active Supervisor, hence crashing

  • Cable modems drop offline

  • Chassis reload required

  • Reset of active Supervisor required to restore service


Note

In case there is hardware issue with the Supervisor, do not reinsert the faulty Supervisor in the chassis. Inserting a faulty Supervisor (although a standby Supervisor) may cause the interface card to switch to the faulty Supervisor causing the interface card to crash and cable modems to go offline.

Using Redundant File Systems

Both the active and standby Supervisors have active file systems that can be accessed to store and transfer files. The table below lists the available file systems, the filenames that you can use with CLI commands to access the file systems,and a short description of each.

Console Port Usage After Supervisor Switchover

When an active Supervisor fails, and the standby Supervisor becomes the active Supervisor, you must use the console port on the new active Supervisor to give CLI commands and display statistics for the router. The standby Supervisor console is disabled by default and cannot be used to run any CLI commands. Following is an sample output of the standby Supervisor console: 

Router-stby>
Standby console disabled
Router-stby>

To access the console, move the PC or terminal's serial cable to the console port on the other Supervisor, which is now acting as the active Supervisor.

Benefits

  • The Supervisor is not a single point of hardware failure. If a permanent hardware failure in the active Supervisor occurs, the standby Supervisor recovers the system, increasing the level of network service and reliability.

  • The standby Supervisor can become the active Supervisor without the manual intervention of a system operator. This reduces the recovery time and the need for an instant response from the network administrators.

  • The active Supervisor continues to dynamically synchronize the changed configuration and feature data with the standby Supervisor after the system reaches SSO. Therefore, the standby Supervisor always operates as a hot standby and ready to take over.

How to Configure Supervisor Redundancy

The Supervisor redundancy feature is automatically enabled when two Supervisor are installed in the Cisco cBR chassis. The active Supervisor automatically synchronizes the running configuration file with the standby Supervisor during the bootup of standby Supervisor.


Note

The Cisco cBR router supports only the SSO mode for Supervisor redundancy. The default redundancy mode is SSO and this mode does not need any new configurations.

This section contains the following:

Forcing Switchover

To manually force a switchover, so that the standby Supervisor becomes active, use the redundancy force-switchover command in privileged EXEC mode on the active Supervisor. Manually forcing a switchover is useful in the following situations:

  • You need to remove, replace, or upgrade the currently active Supervisor.

  • A previous switchover has activated the standby Supervisor and you now want to restore the previously active Supervisor.


Tip

Simply removing the active Supervisor also triggers a switchover, but using the redundancy force-switchover command does not generate a hardware alarm.

Before you begin

Ensure that the standby Supervisor is in the SSO state using the show redundancy command. For more information, see Verifying Supervisor Redundancy.

Procedure

Step 1

Set the configuration register as 0x02 and the load the appropriate image on both the Supervisors

Example:

Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# config-register 0x02
Router(config)# boot system bootflash:cbrsup-universalk9.2015-03-08_01.38_xxxxx.SSA.bin

Note

 

Do not perform this step if you want to set the previous active Supervisor to stay in ROM monitor mode or manually boot it up after the switchover.

Step 2

Use the redundancy force-switchover command to force the switchover.

Example:

Router# redundancy force-switchover

Proceed with switchover to standby RP? [confirm]
Manual Swact = enabled

The standby Supervisor becomes the active Supervisor.

Step 3

(Optional) If you have not performed Step 1, the previous active Supervisor is put into the ROM monitor mode after the switchover. To enable the previous active Supervisor to become the new standby Supervisor, manually boot up the new standby Supervisor to enter into SSO mode.

Changing the System Boot Behavior

This section describes how to change the Cisco IOS software configuration register for modifying the system behavior when powering up or rebooting the system. The software configuration register is a 16 bit register in NVRAM that controls the following boot functions:

  • Specifies the source of the Cisco IOS software image to be loaded

  • Specifies whether the Cisco IOS software must ignore the contents of the saved configuration file in NVRAM memory

  • Enables or disables the use of the Break function

Use the following procedure to change the software configuration register settings:

Procedure

Step 1

Enter global configuration mode and use the config-register command to set the contents of the software configuration register to a new value.

Specify the new value as a 16 bit hexadecimal bitmask by using the values provided in the following table.
Table 2. Definition of Bits in the Software Configuration Register

Bit No.

Hex Value

Meaning/Function

00 to 03

0x0000 to 0x000F

Defines the source of the default Cisco IOS software image required to run the router:

  • 00—When powering up, the system remains at the ROM monitor prompt (rommon), awaiting a user command to boot the system manually by the rommon boot command.

  • 01—When powering up, the system automatically boots the first system image found in the flash memory's single in-line memory module (SIMM) on the Supervisor.

  • 02 to 0F—When powering up, the system automatically boots from a default Cisco IOS software image stored on a TFTP server in the network. For this setting, configure and enable the Network Management Ethernet port on the Supervisor. The port must be operational. This setting also enables boot system commands which can override the default filename.

06

0x0040

Causes system software to ignore the contents of the NVRAM configuration file.

07

0x0080

Enables the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) bit.

08

0x0100

Disables the Break function after 30 seconds.

09

0x0200

Not used.

10

0x0400

Specifies that broadcast packets are based on the 0.0.0.0 IP address.

11 and 12

0x0800 to 0x1000

Defines the console baud rate (the default value is 9600 baud).

13

0x2000

Boots an image from the boot flash memory.

14

0x4000

Specifies that the broadcast packets must use the subnet broadcast address.

15

0x8000

Enables diagnostic messages and ignores the contents of the NVRAM configuration file.

For example, to configure the router to boot to the ROM monitor prompt, set the configuration register to 0x2100 with the following commands:

Example:

Router# config t
Router(config)# config-register 0x2100
Router(config)#

Tip

 

The typical bitmask for normal use is 0x2102. It specifies that the router must load the Cisco IOS software from the flash memory and boot to the Cisco IOS CLI prompt. The Break key is enabled only for 30 seconds. Hence, if required, you can break to the ROM monitor prompt.

Step 2

Exit the global configuration mode.

Example:

Router(config)# exit
Router#

Step 3

View the new software configuration register setting using the show version command.

The last line shows the settings of the configuration register:

Example:

Router# show version

When you modify the configuration register, the show version command shows both the current value of the register and the value that will be used during the next reboot or reload.

Step 4

Perform one of the following to save the new software configuration register settings in the configuration file:

  • Use the copy running-config startup-config command.
  • Use the write command.

Example:

Router# copy running-config startup-config


Router# write
Building configuration...
[OK]

Step 5

The changes to the software configuration register will take effect the next time the router is rebooted or restarted. To manually reboot the router, use the reload command:

Example:

Router# reload
System configuration has been modified. Save? [yes/no]: yes
Proceed with reload? [confirm]

Saving a Configuration File to the Bootflash or Hard Disk

This section describes how to copy a configuration file to a bootflash or hard disk and configure the Cisco cBR router.

Procedure

Step 1

Copy the configuration file to the bootflash or hard disks in both Supervisors.

Example:

Router# copy running-config bootflash:cbr8-config
Router# copy running-config stby-bootflash:cbr8-config
Router# copy running-config harddisk:cbr8-config
Router# copy running-config stby-harddisk:cbr8-config

Step 2

(Optional) If the configuration file is currently on a TFTP server, copy the file from the TFTP server to the bootflash or hard disk in each Supervisor.

Example:

Router# copy tftp://192.168.100.10/router-config bootflash:cbr8-config
Router# copy tftp://192.168.100.10/router-config stby-bootflash:cbr8-config
Router# copy tftp://192.168.100.10/router-config harddisk:cbr8-config
Router# copy tftp://192.168.100.10/router-config stby-harddisk:cbr8-config

Verifying Supervisor Switchover

Procedure

Step 1

Verify the LEDs on the Supervisor Card.

When a Supervisor becomes active, the RP ACT and FP ACT LEDs on the Supervisor Card illuminate green to indicate that they have initialized and acting as the active Supervisor. The RP ACT and FP ACT on standby Supervisor Card are off. For more information, see Monitoring the Supervisor in the Cisco cBR Chassis.

Step 2

Verify the Supervisor switchover by running the show redundancy switchover history command.

If the original Supervisor is in slot 4 (SUP0) and the standby Supervisor is in slot 5 (SUP1), the output is similar to the following sample:

Example:

Router# show redundancy switchover history

Index Previous Current Switchover Switchover
      active   active  reason     time
----- -------- ------- ---------- ----------
1     48       49      user forced 19:23:11 CST Sun Jan 1 2012
