The MPM Command/Menu
Page 6-10
All of the mpm menu commands, except for the nisuf and swap commands, function only if
you have redundant MPXs. If you are connected to the secondary MPX, type a ? to list the
mpm commands shown below.
Command Redundancy Menu
mpmget Get file from Primary MPM
takeover Become Primary
All of the mpm commands are described in the sections that follow.
Using MPM Commands with Software Release 3.2 and Later
In Release 3.2 and later, the commands in the mpm menu support the use of more than one
flash directory. Since more than one flash directory can exist, you must indicate which flash
directory you want to use when you access a secondary MPX from a primary MPX and when
you access a primary MPX from a secondary MPX. All of these commands begin with the
prefix mpm and are listed below.
mpmstore
mpmreplace
mpmload
mpmrm
mpmget
To indicate which flash directory you want to use, enter a slash (
/), the name of the direc-
tory, and another slash (/) before the file name in all commands that begin with the prefix
mpm. For example, to transfer the asm.img file from the /simm directory on the secondary MPX
to the primary MPX when you have logged into the secondary MPX, enter
mpmget /simm/asm.img
at the system prompt.
♦ Important Note ♦
In the current release, you must indicate the name of
the flash directory in commands that begin with the
prefix
mpm even if you have just one flash directory on
both MPXs.
