Chapter 2 Managing the GSS from the CLI
Replacing GSS Devices in Your GSS Network
3. Use the gss stop command to stop the GSS software running on the GSS.
gss3.example.com# gss stop
4. Use the gss disable command to disable the GSS. This command removes the
existing configuration and returns the GSS device to an initial state, including
the removal of all previously configured DNS rules and keepalives.
gss3.example.com# gss disable
5. If this is a new GSS device, configure basic network connectivity following
the procedures outlined in the Cisco Global Site Selector Getting Started
Guide, Chapter 3, Setting Up Your GSS. Save your configuration changes to
memory.
gss3.example.com# copy running-config startup-config
6. If this is an existing GSS device, delete it from your GSS network through the
primary GSSM GUI. Refer to the
“Deleting GSS Devices” section in
Chapter 1, Managing GSS Devices from the GUI.
7. If you want to use the same host name and IP address of the failed standby
GSSM, determine if you have a backup of the startup-configuration file for
that device:
• If yes, reload the backup copy of the GSS device startup configuration
settings (see the
“Saving the Startup and Running Configuration Files”
section).
• If no, reenter the platform configuration following the procedures
outlined in the Cisco Global Site Selector Getting Started Guide,
Chapter
3, Setting Up Your GSS.
Ensure that you save your configuration changes to memory.
gss3.example.com# copy running-config startup-config
8. Enter the gss enable gssm-standby command to configure the GSS device as
the standby GSSM in the GSS network and direct it to the primary GSSM.
The syntax for this command is:
gss enable gssm-standby primary_GSSM_hostname |
primary_GSSM_IP_address
