RPM synchronization
Data between the two RPMs is synchronized immediately after bootup. Once the two RPMs have done an
initial full synchronization (block sync), thereafter FTOS only updates changed data (incremental sync).
The data that is synchronized consists of configuration data, operational data, state and status, and statistics
depending on the FTOS version.

Trigger an RPM failover between RPMs using the command redundancy force-failover rpm from EXEC
Privilege mode. Use this feature when:
• you are replacing an RPM, and
• you are performing a warm upgrade
