OmniSwitch AOS Release 6 Switch Management Guide

When a switch is booted, the certified and working directories are compared. If they are the same, the 
switch runs from the working directory. If they are different, the switch runs from the certified directory. 
A switch running from the certified directory cannot modify directory contents. (This topic is covered in 

.)

To check the directory from where the switch is currently running, enter the following command:

-> show running-directory

CONFIGURATION STATUS

Running CMM              : PRIMARY,

CMM Mode                 : DUAL CMMs,

Current CMM Slot         : 1,

Running configuration    : WORKING,

Certify/Restore Status   : CERTIFY NEEDED

SYNCHRONIZATION STATUS

Flash Between CMMs       : SYNCHRONIZED,

Running Configuration    : NOT AVAILABLE,

Stacks Reload on Takeover: ALL STACKs (SW Activation)

To check the directory from where the switch is currently running, enter the following command9000:

-> show running-directory

CONFIGURATION STATUS

Running CMM              : PRIMARY,

CMM Mode                 : MONO CMMs,

Current CMM Slot         : A,

Running configuration    : WORKING,

Certify/Restore Status   : CERTIFY NEEDED

SYNCHRONIZATION STATUS

Running Configuration    : NOT SYNCHRONIZED,

NIs Reload on Takeover   : 3

The command returns the directory the switch is currently running from (working or certified) and which 
CMM is currently controlling the switch (primary or secondary). It also displays whether the working and 
certified directories are the same, and if a synchronization is needed between the primary and secondary 
CMM.

 command is described in detail in the OmniSwitch CLI Reference Guide.
