atmf recover
This command is used to manually initiate the recovery (or replication) of an AMF node,
usually when a node is being replaced. The recovery/replication process involves loading
the configuration file for a node that is either about to be replaced or has experienced
some problem. The configuration file of the device being replaced is selected by the
nodename parameter, and the master node holding the config file is specified by the
parameter <master-nodename>.
If the <nodename> parameter is not entered then the node will attempt to use one that
has been previously configured. If the replacement node has no previous configuration
(and has no previously used nodename), then the recovery will fail.
If the <master-nodename> parameter is not specified then the device will poll all
known AMF masters and execute an election process (based on the last successful backup
and its timestamp) to determine which master node to use. If no valid backup master is
found, then this command will fail.
Syntax atmf recover [<nodename> <master-nodename>]
Mode
Privileged Exec
Usage No error checking occurs when this command is run, and regardless of the last backup
status, the recovering node will attempt to load its configuration from the master node
specified by the master-nodename parameter.
Note that if the node has previously been configured, we recommend that you suspend
any AMF backup before running this command. This is to prevent corruption of the
backup files on the AMF master as it attempts to both backup and recover the node at the
same time.
Examples To recover the AMF node named Node_10 from the AMF master node named Master_2,
use the following command:
