CS1000M 7.6 Network Switch Replacement

[DisasterMaster]

I plan to replace our Elan/Tlan network switch.
Looking for tips regarding CPU0 & CPU1 that reside on this particular network switch.
Right now, I’m running on CPU0 and all is well.
I’m thinking that I should move the CPU1 Elan connection over to the new network switch first and after confirming that I can ping it, then move the Elan connection to CPU0.
I’m concerned that when moving CPU0 to the new switch that I may fail over to CPU1.
I’m thinking that if I move the connection fast enough to only miss a couple pings that it shouldn’t fail over.
Anyway, in the event that it does fail over, I would like to fail back to CPU0 when all of the work is done.
What are the commands to in 135 to switch back to CPU0 if I do indeed failover.
What stat commands aside from “Stat CPU” should I run to confirm all is operating normally?
Thanks for your input.

Your communication for those call servers is done over the HSP connection, not the ELAN. You shouldn't have to do a thing.

What rls are you running? Also do you have Media Cards, Sig servers, CallPilot, Contact Center etc? I have found that when the elan is pulled off the active CPU if the inactive CPU has a network connection, it will fail over. If the e-lan is pulled off the inactive CPU it will not, and if you split CPU's it can not! If your data switch is set for auto auto, then you will most likely have to reboot the MC cards for the e-lan to come up correct (10/half). If you have Contact Center you should gracefully down services and re-start them when all finished. I run 2 data switches with CPU 0 on one and CPU 1 on the other, I also split the Sig servers and MC cards between them and have Contact Center and CallPilot on the same switch as CPU 0 so if I lose a Data switch I will still have IP sets.

Hope this helps,
