Configuring the Passive SCM Primary Boot File
Use the passive primary boot-file command to specify the primary boot image
for the passive SCM. Enter the filename of the primary boot image for the passive
SCM as an unquoted text string with no spaces and a maximum length of
64 characters. To display a list of filenames, enter passive primary boot-file ?.
For example, enter:
(config-boot)# passive primary boot-file ap0500002
To remove the primary boot file from the passive SCM, enter:
(config-boot)# no passive primary boot-file
Configuring the Passive SCM Primary Boot Type
Use the passive primary boot-type command to specify the primary boot
method, the local disk, FTP, or a network-mounted file system for the passive
SCM. The syntax and options for this boot mode command are:
• passive primary boot-type boot-via-disk - Boot the system from local disk.
• passive primary boot-type boot-via-ftp ftp_record - Download an ADI file
containing CSS software that you want to install on the IDM. The CSS
accesses the ADI or GZIP file containing the CSS software from an FTP
server, copies it to the passive SCM, and unpacks it.
• passive primary boot-type boot-via-network ftp_record - Use FTP to boot
the CSS from software located on a network-mounted file system on a remote
system (such as a PC or UNIX workstation). The CSS boots independently
from the passive SCMand loads the configuration into memory. Insteadof the
CSS disk, the network file system contains the CSS software.
Enter the ftp_record as the name of the FTP record file that contains the FTP
server IP address, username, and password. Enter an unquoted text string with no
spaces.
For example, enter:
(config-boot)# passive primary boot-type boot-via-ftp arecord
To remove the primary boot type from the passive SCM, enter:
(config-boot)# no passive primary boot-type
