set boot high-availability delay (S-, 7100-Series)

Use this command to set a delay between the completion of one upgrade group and the beginning of another.

Syntax

set boot high-availability delay delay

Parameters

delay Specifies a delay in seconds between the upgrade completion of one HAU group and the beginning of another. Valid values are 0 - 600 seconds. The default value is 0 seconds.

Defaults

0 seconds (no delay).

Mode

All command modes.

Usage

If it is determined that certain features, functions or protocols in a particular network have an adverse reaction to the multiple slot resets which are a necessary part of HA Upgrades, it is possible to slow the pace of the upgrade process. Inserting extra delay between resets may allow those protocols to reach a stable state before the next reset begins.

Under normal operation there is an approximately 5 second delay between the completion of one HAU group upgrade and the start of the next group upgrade. Use the HAU delay to assure that the just completed HAU group is fully operational before beginning the next HAU group upgrade.

Example

This example shows how to set the delay between the upgrade completion of one HAU group and the beginning of another to 15 seconds:

System(rw)->set boot high-availability delay 15
System(rw)->
