Trigger Failover Commands
This chapter describes the trigger failover (TFO) commands.
clear tfo counter
Use this command to clear the TFO counters. If you do not specify a parameter, this command clears counters for all FOG indexes.
Command Syntax
clear tfo counter
clear tfo counter fog <1-64>
Parameters
<1-64>
Clear counters for this Failover Group Index
Default
None
Command Mode
Exec mode
Applicability
This command was introduced before OcNOS version 1.3.
Example
#clear tfo counter
fog
Use this command to:
• Create or delete a failover group (FOG)
• Enable or disable an exisitng FOG
Even if FOG index do not exit, FOG can be created as enabled with “enable” option in CLI.
If the FOG index already exists:
• When the FOG status is disabled and Control Port Group (CPG) links are previously disabled (because of TFO), then the links are enabled. If a particular CPG member belongs to multiple CPGs, then this CPG member is enabled only if all corresponding Monitor Port Groups (MPG) are enabled.
• When the FOG status is enabled and MPG is down, then the corresponding CPG links are disabled.
Use the no form of this command to delete a FOG.
Command Syntax
fog <1-64> (enable|disable)
no fog <1-64>
