Disabling Auto Reinstallation of CPU Module

If the failure is corrected and the CPU module is restarted, the Auto Reinstallation of CPU Module feature reconfigures
the system and auitomatically brings up the module relevant to that failure.
Auto Reinstallation of CPU Module feature is enabled by default. It works when ft server is started, recovered from
system fault, or recovered from pseudo fault.
This feature may be disabled because it may take time to automatically reinstall the CPU module depending on system
configuration. Take the steps below to disable this feature.
You can shift the timing of no communication that occurs during the installation process of CPU module by disabling the
auto reinstallation of CPU module and manually enabling the installation of the CPU module.
4.4.1 Disabling auto reinstallation of CPU module
Run the following command to disable auto reinstallation of CPU module.
# /opt/ft/bin/ftsmaint bringupPolicy defer
Successfully deferred cpuBringupPolicy
If auto reinstallation of CPU module is disabled, run the ftsmaint bringup command to install the CPU
module manually, or restart the system.
– When CPU/IO module 0 is the primary: Path of CPU module to be installed is 1.
# /opt/ft/bin/ftsmaint bringup 1
Completed bringUp on the device at path 1.
– When CPU/IO module 1 is the primary: Path of CPU module to be installed is 0.
# /opt/ft/bin/ftsmaint bringup 0
Completed bringUp on the device at path 0.
Run the following command to enable auto reinstallation of CPU module.
# /opt/ft/bin/ftsmaint bringupPolicy enable
Successfully enabled cpuBringupPolicy
Run the following command to confirm the current setting.
# /opt/ft/bin/ftsmaint bringupPolicy list
CPU bringup policy is enabled
Important You need to perform this configuration as a root user.
Note This configuration just shifts the timing of the no-communication and does not control the
no-communication status. Furthermore, this configuration does not prevent no
communication timeout from occurring.
Tips Even if auto reinstallation of CPU is disabled, it is enabled and the installation process
occurs when the system is starting up by a reboot.
