Active and standby management module file synchronization

The Brocade system allows you to perform the following file synchronization tasks:

Compare files on the active module with files on the standby module and immediately
synchronize any files that are different.

Immediately synchronize all files between the active and standby modules.

The following sections explain how to perform these tasks.

Comparing and synchronizing files

You can initiate a comparison of the flash code, system-config, and running-config files on the
active management module with these files on the standby module and synchronize the files
immediately if differences exist. When you synchronize the files, the active module files are copied
to the standby module, replacing the standby module files.

To compare and immediately synchronize files between the active and standby modules, enter the
following command at the Privileged EXEC level.
