Syncing a DSCP Configuration

DSCP configurations on one server can be synced with other servers in the same cluster. It is recommended the sync be performed from the active server to all other servers (standby or standby and spare) in a one site or two site cluster.

To sync a DSCP configuration:

  1. Log in to the platcfg utility using one of two methods, either from the system console using root or through an SSH remote session using admusr.
    • To access the platcfg utility from the system console:
      1. Log in as root.
      2. Enter su - platcfg.
    • To access the platcfg utility through an SSH remote session:
      1. Log in as admusr.
      2. Enter sudo su - platcfg.

    Note: The dash (-) is required in the su - platcfg or the sudo su - platcfg command to ensure proper permissions.

  2. Select DSCP Config from the Policy Configuration Menu screen and press Enter.
  3. Select Sync DSCP Configuration from the DSCP Configuration Menu screen and press Enter.

    Note: If the sync is performed from a server that is not the Active server, a warning message opens, giving you the option to stop the sync process.

  4. Select Yes to continue the sync process.

    After the process is complete, a confirmation message screen opens. The configurations are copied to the other servers and take effect.
