Hello,
A client of us is having problems with a Cat 6500 switch (a Cat 6500 Supervisor 720 Fabric MSFC3 PFC3A with a s72033-ipservicesk9-mz.122-18.SXF14 IOS). This switch fails to load the IOS image. I?ve read this document:
<A HREF="javascript:newWin(‘http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/products/hw/switches/ps700/products_tech_note09186a008015bfa1.shtml#catos_ios’)">http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/products/hw/switches/ps700/products_tech_note09186a008015bfa1.shtml#catos_ios</A>
And I have some questions about it:
- The document talks about RP ROMmon and SP ROMmon, ¿is this only for an older model with MSCF1 or the MSCF3 has two ROMmon too?
- In the fourth point of the ?Supervisor 720 Recovery Procedure?, it talks about RP Mode. ¿What is this mode?
- Will I be able to boot the IOS image from the external compact flash (disk0:)? In another doc I?ve read:
?SP bootflash/bootdisk is the location from where the system can load and boot a Cisco IOS Software image.(?). The RP bootflash can also be used as a storage location for Cisco IOS Software images, although the system cannot directly load an image from that location.?
Best regards and thanks in advance,
