Stateful failover commands
dhbk configuration-backup
Use dhbk configuration-backup to enable the local device to perform automatic configuration
synchronization to the peer.
Use undo dhbk configuration-backup to restore the default.
Syntax
dhbk configuration-backup master [ synchronization ]
undo dhbk configuration-backup
Default
A device only receives backup configuration from the peer.
Views
System view
Default command level
2: System level
Parameters
synchronization: Enables the local device to automatically synchronize configurations of the service
modules that support stateful failover to the peer. If the synchronization keyword is not specified,
automatic synchronization is not performed.
Usage guidelines
To implement service backup between two devices (A and B, for example), make sure the service status,
service data, and service configurations on the two devices are consistent. You can enable automatic
configuration synchronization on A and use the default configuration on B. After that, A automatically
synchronizes configurations of the service modules that support stateful failover to B in real time.
