Usage Guidelines The main CPU submode is used to manually synchronize the configurations on the two supervisor
engines. From the main CPU sub mode, use the auto-sync command to enable automatic synchronization
of the configuration files in NVRAM.
Note After you enter the main CPU submode, you can use the auto-sync command to automatically
synchronize the configurat ion betwee n the primar y and sec ondary rout e processors based on the primary
configuration. In addition, you can us e all of the redundancy commands that are applicable to the main
CPU.
Examples This example shows how to reenable the default automatic synchronization feature using the auto-sync
standard command to synchronize the startup-config and config-register configuration of the active
supervisor engine with the standby sup ervisor engine. The updates for the boot variables are a utomatic
and cannot be disabled.
