If the FPD upgrade operation is interrupted by a power failure or the removal of the SPA, it could corrupt the
FPD image. This corruption of the FPD image file makes the SPA unusable by the router and the system will
display the following messages when it tries to power up the SPA:
To find more information about FPD-related messages, check the system error messages guide for your
Cisco IOS XE software release.

The
show hw-module all fpd
command can be used to verify that the SPA is using a corrupted FPD image.
In this example, the SPA in slot 0/1 is corrupted.

Performing an FPD Recovery Upgrade
The recovery upgrade procedure can only be performed on a SPA that has been powered off by the system
after it has failed all of the retries attempted to initialize the SPA.
The following example displays the output of an attempt to perform a recovery upgrade before all the
initialization retries have been attempted for the SPA in subslot 0/1.
Because a recovery upgrade is done at a more conservative speed, it may take more than the estimated
upgrade time.
Note
Other factors can cause the system to ask
“
Do you want to perform the recovery upgrade operation?
”
Only
answer
y
to this question if you have attempted an FPD upgrade that has failed due to a power failure or
a SPA removal.If you are prompted for this question without having previously had a failed upgrade
attempt for one of the aforementioned reasons, contact Cisco Technical Support.
