Upgrading Software on Redundant NSPs
Switch the Primary and Secondary NSPs
Complete the following steps to switch the primary and secondary NSPs. Before this task is completed,
the NSP in slot 0A is the primary device, and the NSP in slot 0B is the secondary device.
Step 1 Use the redundancy force-failover EXEC command to switch the primary and secondary devices.
Switch# redundancy force-failover main-cpu
The NSP in slot 0A is now the secondary device, and the NSP in slot 0B is now the primary device. Both
devices are running the new image.
