Configuring a Redundant Circuit
To configure a redundant circuit for the front panel:
NOTES
The spmarun script invoked first in the above command temporarily sets the environment 
variables SPMA needs to operate; be sure to use this command any time you launch an 
application from the command line. This script is automatically invoked when you launch 
an application from the icon menu or from within the Hub View.
If you wish to configure a redundant circuit, be sure to use a community name with at 
least Read/Write access. If you only wish to view current settings, a community name 
with Read access will be sufficient.
If there is a hostname mapped to your EMM-E6’s IP address, you can use <hostname> 
in place of <IP address> to launch this application. Please note, however, that the 
hostname is not the same as the device name which can be assigned via Local 
Management and/or SPMA; you cannot use the device name in place of the IP address.
NOTE
Make sure that the Disable option at the top of the window is selected; front panel 
redundancy must be disabled when you edit redundancy settings.
