Upgrading to Release 4.1
To create a redundant DS3 configuration, edit the boot.ini file on the flash
memory card to include the following lines in the format:
[redundant]
slotx=y
where x and y are adjacent CVX switch slots using two-digit numbers.
For example, the following entry creates a redundant configuration when you start
the system.
slot04=05
Configuration File (config.cvx)
When using the CLI to edit attributes in the configuration file, enter the show
command to display the most current values for those attributes. When you use
the commit command during a CLI session, the CVX switch applies any changes
you made using the set command to the SCC memory buffer. It does not save the
changes you made to the configuration file (config.cvx) on the flash memory card.
To save your changes to the configuration file on the flash memory card, use the
save command after you use the commit command. When you use CVXView to
configure the CVX switch, the commit command automatically saves the
configuration file on the flash memory card.
Ascend-Modem-Port-No Attribute (5212)
The value of the Ascend-Modem-Port-No attribute (for example, 262402) is a
combination of the IOP, DMM, pack, and device, expressed in hexadecimal
notation.
Warning: When editing the boot.ini file, be sure to use a carriage return
after the last line in the file. If you do not include the carriage return, the
last character of the last line in the file will be truncated, resulting in an
incorrect line entry and unpredictable system operation.
