Applying the UUID
The next prompt in the initial-boot script asks for the UUID. Enter the
UUID of the failed switch. For example,
...
TheUUIDshouldonlybeenteredifthischassisisreplacingafailedchassis
andtheenteredUUIDshouldmatchtheUUIDofthefailedchassis.
11.Enterthechassis'sUUID
intheformat
xxxxxxxx‐xxxx‐xxxx‐xxxx‐xxxxxxxxxxxx.(default=d4ukjce8‐1854‐11d8‐91e3‐f48e42637d58)#
3d17e8ce‐571e‐11dc‐9852‐ef323fbb290f
...
Important
No two running chassis should ever share the same UUID. Only enter the
UUID in a switch-replacement scenario.
Installing a Redundant Peer or Cluster
If you are installing the second switch in a redundant pair (called an ARX
cluster) or if you are configuring a second ARX cluster in a Disaster
Recovery (DR) configuration, you need to provide additional information to
the initial-boot script. All members of the cluster share a common master
key.
Note
A master key is an encryption key for all critical-security parameters
(CSPs), such as administrative passwords.
