Configuring a Redundant Circuit

To configure a redundant circuit for the front panel:

NOTES

The spmarun script invoked first in the above command temporarily sets the environment
variables SPMA needs to operate; be sure to use this command any time you launch an
application from the command line. This script is automatically invoked when you launch
an application from the icon menu or from within the Hub View.

If you wish to configure a redundant circuit, be sure to use a community name with at
least Read/Write access. If you only wish to view current settings, a community name
with Read access will be sufficient.

If there is a hostname mapped to your EMM-E6’s IP address, you can use <hostname>
in place of <IP address> to launch this application. Please note, however, that the
hostname is not the same as the device name which can be assigned via Local
Management and/or SPMA; you cannot use the device name in place of the IP address.

NOTE

Make sure that the Disable option at the top of the window is selected; front panel
redundancy must be disabled when you edit redundancy settings.
