Upgrading to Cisco IOS Release 12.2(28)SB on a Cisco 10000 Series Router

OL-8833-01

  Upgrade Option 3: ESR-PRE1 Upgrade with RPR Switchover

If the ESR-PRE1 config-register is set to 0x0, it will boot to ROM monitor. Boot the ESR-PRE1 
image from ROM monitor and wait for to come up as standby in RPR mode with the console 
disabled.

If the ESR-PRE1 config-register is set to 0x2 and the autoboot string is set to boot the ESR-PRE1 
image, it will come up as standby in RPR mode with the console disabled.

Note

From the ESR-PRE1 console and the ESR-PRE2 console, you may see error messages such as 

Failed 

to assert Cutover alarm RP A/or B

 or 

outgoing IPC bypass failed

. You can ignore these messages. 

because they do not affect operation of the system.

Note

Now you should test the 12.2SBB image to determine whether or not a rollback to the previous image is 
needed. To roll back, see the 

“Rollback Procedure for Option 3” section on page 7

.

Step 12

After you have verified correct operation of the ESR-PRE2, replace the standby ESR-PRE1 with a 
second ESR-PRE2. Bring it up and load the new image onto bootflash as follows:

a.

From the newly installed ESR-PRE2 boot image console, copy the 12.2(28)SB image from the TFTP 
server to the bootflash using the 

copy tftp bootflash

:

image_name

 command.

b.

From the newly installed ESR-PRE2 console, use the 

dir bootflash

 command to verify that the 

12.2(28)SB image is in the bootflash. Configure the ESR-PRE2 to autoboot using the 

boot system 

bootflash

:

mage-name 

and 

config-register 0x2 

configuration commands. Save the configuration 

using the 

write memory

 command.

Step 13

Reload the second ESR-PRE2. It will autoboot the new image from the bootflash and come up as the 
standby. The console will display the following messages:

PRE2>

Standby console disabled

PRE2>

Standby console disabled

At this point, the system should be operating as a dual-PRE redundant 12.2(28)SB system in the 
configured mode (either SSO or RPR+), running the properly modified startup configuration. You can 
verify the redundancy status using the 

show redundancy

 or 

show redundancy state

 command.

Step 14

Enter the 

write memory

 command from the active console to bring the startup configuration up to date 

on the active and standby ESR-PRE2s.

Rollback Procedure for Option 3

If the active ESR-PRE2 does not operate satisfactorily after 

Step 11

, you can initiate a second switchover 

to revert to the original ESR-PRE1 operating as the active processor. You must do so before you perform 

Step 12

.

To change back to the ESR-PRE1:

Step 1

Make sure the ESR-PRE1 is up as the standby PRE (see 

Step 11

).

Step 2

Remove the active ESR-PRE2 from the chassis. Service will be disrupted as the standby ESR-PRE1 
becomes the active standalone.
