Cisco Core Switch 6506-E Rommon Mode

Dear Sir,

Good Day!

Everytime I try to restart my Cisco Core Switch 6506-E, it will go on ROMMON 1 mode command.

This problem I encountered when my Electrical Power accidentally shutdown.

The Solution I did is to just type - boot command

and then Automatic iniatilize the configuration and reboot from normal.

What can I do to fix this issue permanently?

Your immediate response is highly appreciated.

Thanks and Best regards,

Michael D. Miranda

check if you have config-register set  to 0x2102 on both RP and SP.

sh version -> on RP

remote login switch

sh version -> on SP

If not i would say change it

Thanks,

Richard.

Maybe the boot statement is incorrect.

Post the output to the following commands:

1.  sh bootvar

2.  dir sup-bootdisk:

3.  dir disk0:

Dear Sir,

Hi, Michael Miranda...

I absolutely agree with Richard Michael, he offered you the right solution, but let me explain a little more deeply situation.

Sorry, English is not my native language and I can not well everlasting on it complicated things... I just give you links to two articles, after reading that you all will become clear:

In short, you have mismatch of the configuration register of SP and RP...The solution is to reconfigure the configuration register and reload the system:

config t

config-register 0x2102

end
