Project Playbook || ERS Chassis replacement

Product Model: ERS4900/5900

Pre-Stage
(see CLI command example section for more detail)

1. Load Firmware Diag and Software Image and Config files on your USB stick,
2. insert USB into the ERS and paste the commands below in the ERS CLI
3. Remember to match the COM ports from Windows Device Manager to your Putty Session

Pre-Stage Steps:
Connect to the ERS via console. Once connected
 Type ctrl+y to access the terminal
1. Type enable
2. Type restore factory-default -y
a. This will cause a reboot
3. Type download usb diag xxxx_xxxx_diags.bin no-reset
a. where xxxx_xxxx is the filename
4. Type download usb image xxxx_xxxxxx.img
a. where xxxx_xxxx is the filename
b. This will cause a reboot
5. Type show sys-info
a. to verify software and firmware images are correct
6. Type show running-config
a. Verify config, port mapping, internet access, management access (SSH, Telnet, EDM)

Hardware Installation Pre-Config

STEP 1.
Before adding the new unit to the stack, please verify whether it’s the Base unit… if it is the Base unit, ensure the Base
toggle switch is enabled, otherwise verify the Base toggle switch is disengaged.
If you add two units into a stack with Base toggle switch enable it will cause serious issues on the stack

STEP 2.
Command to backup configuration in ASCII format using USB:
copy running-config usb filename <file-name>

Command to backup configuration in binary format using USB:


copy config usb filename <file-name>

Command to restore configuration using USB:


copy usb config filename <name>
Note*
when copying binary config files to stacks the IP data (ip default-gateway, ip address stack, ip address netmask, etc) will not be
copied. Binary config file will not save the IP because it is intended to be used on many stacks or different single units, and if
the IP address is saved on all, IP conflicts may emerge. The proper way to do this is once the binary config is copied, re-
configure the stack IP services (can use cut and paste of config lines from ASCII file).
STEP 3.
Before adding the new unit to the stack, please verify whether AAUR function is enabled stack base unit.
If not, enable with the help of these command;
4950GTS-PWR+#config t
4950GTS-PWR+(config)# show stack auto-unit-replacement-image
4950GTS-PWR+(config)# stack auto-unit-replacement-image enable

STEP 4.
Before adding the new unit to the stack, please verify whether Autosave function is enabled on the stack base unit is enabled.
If not, enable with the help of these command;
4950GTS-PWR+#show autosave
4950GTS-PWR+(config)#autosave enable

If both these features are enabled, then the configuration from the base unit of the stack will be pushed automatically to the
new joining unit.

Note:
If show stack auto-unit-replacement and show autosave are disabled on the stack, the configuration will need to be manually
pushed to the new unit, as it will not be copied automatically. The main symptom of the configuration not being copied is that
all switch ports will be collapsed into a single default vlan.

Use the below command to manually push configuration to the switch / stack

Note:
Backup config must be based on same software as currently running on switch

1. Type copy usb config filename <xxxx_xxxx.cfg>


a. Where xxxx_xxxx is the filename
Troubleshooting

Replacement Process for Base:


(this is optional if you do not want to bring down the entire stack then follow the customer standard unit replacement process)
This process will help reduce any issue with the temp base and new base unit attempting to sync up on swap out

 Power down the stack


 Insert the new Base unit into the stack
 Power up the stack in this order (wait 30 seconds between each unit) example is 4-unit stack
1. Base
2. Unit2
3. Unit3
4. Unit4

If Base does not come up


If Base unit does not come up as base, ensure the Base has the Green Base light lit. Toggle the Base switch from off to on, on
the back of the base unit and replace UP/DOWN stacking cables connected to the base.

If Non-Base unit does not come up:


Replace UP/DOWN stacking cables connected to the unit
Verify Stack Integrity
4950GTS-PWR+#show stack health

How AUR works?


Note: 'AUR' does not work in a stack of two units only
Auto Unit Replacement (AUR) is enabled by default and restores the configuration of the unit which was replaced by a new
one in the stack. The new unit must be of the same hardware model.

How AAUR works?


When added a replaced unit to an AAUR-enabled stack, AAUR compares the switch software image on the replacement unit to
the stack software image. If the replaced unit Agent image differs from the stack (base unit) Agent image, then AAUR
downloads the Agent image from the base unit to the replaced unit. The system resets the new unit. The new unit then
becomes a member of the stack after reboot.

Example CLI commands


(versions may vary depending on what FW/SW needs to be loaded)

Enter Ctrl-Y to begin. (If needed login: rw | password: rw)
