after that , I desired to TEST the core 2 by switching off the core switch no. one , BUT ,I notice that the core2 made RELOAD immediately , and takes some minutes to return back , BUT , the network still not working when core 2 working a lone .

I checked the booting of core2 by issuing :

CORE2#  sh boot

BOOT variable = sup-bootdisk:s72033-ipservices_wan-vz.122-18.SXF13.bin,12;

CONFIG_FILE variable does not exist

BOOTLDR variable does not exist

Configuration register is 0x2102

Standby is not present.

After that , I turned  ON core switch no . 1  , NOW BOTH CORE 1 AND CORE 2 ARE ON , AND I NOTICE THAT THE WHOLE NETWORK IS DOWN AND NOT WORKING .

WHEN I TURED OFF THE CORE SWITCH NO 2 , THE SYSTEM GOES UP AND WORK ( ONLY WHEN CORE 1 WORK A LONE , NOT LIKE OLD TIMES I WAS WORKING ON BOTH  ))

I ISSUED THE FOLLOWING ON CORE 1

sh verboot

BOOT variable =

CONFIG_FILE variable =

BOOTLDR variable =

Configuration register is 0x2102

Standby is not present.

hello  leolaohoo

thanks for your replay , and please note :

- the bad switch is CORE2 .

- i do not have any CF ( CAN I BUY IT ? HOW MUCH DOES IT COST ?  AND WHAT TYPE I NEED TO BUY ?)

- no i do not want to use the old IOS ver , but how can i get a newer one ? ( i do not have cisco account ) .

- in case i made new IOS UPGRADE , does it effect the configuration file ?

sorry for taking your time , but really i need help .

thanks .

- i do not have any CF ( CAN I BUY IT ? HOW MUCH DOES IT COST ?  AND WHAT TYPE I NEED TO BUY ?)

You can buy the CF from Cisco or your local electronics/camera shop.

sorry but how much @ if you know @ ?

and could you please tell me the type ?

i mean it will be cf 2 GB for cisco 6509 ... any other info. i need to know about that please ?

in case i got the CF , i will go to

core2 # format disk0:

core2#copy sup-bootdisk:s72033-ipservices_wan-vz.122-18.SXF13.bin disk0:s72033-ipservices_wan-vz.122-18.SXF13.bin

- In ROMmon, enter the command:  boot disk0:s72033-ipservices_wan-vz.122-18.SXF13.bin

shall i change config reg . to go to ROMMON ?

(( i know that i am asking many questions , but i did not do any upgrading or ios troubleshooting before .

what about the IOS , where can i get it , ( i do not have cisco account ).

thanks .

Night .

Night,

Like I said, NOT ALL CF are supported so you'll have to buy at least two different manufacturer and try.  I don't know the cost of an original Cisco-branded one.  I don't know HOW LONG it'll take for a Cisco-branded one to arrive.  You may want to try e-bay.

If CORE1 is the good supervisor then this is the command you want to use. 

why in core 1 ( the good  working switch ) , i have that when issuing sh mod
