Indicates that maintenance mode is released.
See
For details on the rcxadm netdevice command, refer to "3.8 rcxadm netdevice" in the "Reference Guide (Command/XML) CE".
Note
When configuring maintenance mode for a network device, auto-configuration is not executed on the network device.
Therefore, when a network device configured for maintenance mode is in a redundancy configuration, it may be unable to keep the
redundancy configuration depending on the configuration details.
When configuring maintenance mode for a network device with redundancy configuration, it is recommended not to perform operations
(creation, modification, and deletion) for a tenant administrator.
The configuration details for which redundancy configurations cannot be maintained depends on the specifications of network devices
configuring the network devices. For details, refer to the manuals of network devices.
22.2 Switchover of the Target of Auto-Configuration
This section explains the switchover operation necessary for changing the rulesets of network devices that are the target of auto-
configuration.
Use the following operations to configure whether network devices are the targets or are not targets of auto-configuration.
- Configuring a network device as the target of auto-configuration
When configuring a network device as the target of auto-configuration, an infrastructure administrator should use the commands to
perform the operation.
The specified network device is configured as the target of auto-configuration, using the rcxadm netdevice set command with the -
attr auto_conf=true option specified.
- Excluding a network device from auto-configuration
In following cases, the network device is excluded from the targets of auto-configuration:
- When an infrastructure administrator is temporarily excluding the network device from auto-configuration
The specified network device is excluded from the target of auto-configuration, by using the rcxadm netdevice set command with
the -attr mode=active option specified.
- When auto-configuration fails due to problems (such as login failure or device failure) related to network devices
- When an infrastructure administrator is excluding the network device from the targets of auto-configuration during network device
registration
By executing the rcxadm netdevice create command or the rcxadm netconfig import command after specifying "false" in the
AutoConfiguration element of the network configuration information, it is excluded from the targets of auto-configuration during
network device modification.
- When an infrastructure administrator is excluding the network device from the target of auto-configuration during network device
modification
By executing the rcxadm netdevice modify command after specifying "false" in the AutoConfiguration tag of the network
configuration information, it is excluded from the targets of auto-configuration during network device modification.
Example
- When an infrastructure administrator is configuring the network device using auto-configuration
