Performing a Fast Software Upgrade Example

The following example show a Fast Software Upgrade performed on a Cisco 7507 router with an active
RSP in slot 2 and a standby RSP installed in slot 3.

Router# copy tftp slot0:rsp-pv-mz

Router# copy tftp slaveslot0:rsp-pv-mz

Router# configure terminal

Router(config)# hw-module slot 2 image slot0:rsp-pv-mz

Router(config)# hw-module slot 3 image slot0:rsp-pv-mz

Router(config)# end

Router# hw-module sec-cpu reset

Router# copy running-config startup-config

Router# redundancy force-switchover

RPR, RPR+, SSO, and FSU Troubleshooting Tips

Use the commands in the table below to troubleshoot the RPR, RPR+, and FSU features on Cisco 7500
series routers:

Step 6

Router(config)# slave auto-sync config

(Optional) Turns on automatic synchronization of
configuration files. Use this command to ensure that
the active and standby RSPs contain the same
configuration files.

Step 7

Router(config)# end

Exits configuration mode.

Step 8

Router# copy running-config startup-config

Saves the configuration changes to your startup
configuration in NVRAM so the router boots with the
configuration you have entered.

Step 9

Router# hw-module sec-cpu reset

Resets and reloads the standby RSP with the
specified Cisco IOS image and executes the image.

Note

If you do not specify a Cisco IOS image in
Step 2, this command loads and executes the
bundled default IOS standby image. The
system then operates in HSA mode.

Step 10

Router# redundancy force-switchover

Forces a switchover to the standby RSP.

1.

Before you copy a file to Flash memory, be sure there is ample space available in Flash memory. Compare the size of the file you are copying to the
amount of available Flash memory shown. If the space available is less than the space required by the file you will copy, the copy process will continue,
but the entire file will not be copied into Flash memory.

Command

Purpose

Router# show diag

Use this command to display hardware information for the router.

Router# show redundancy

Use this command to display the redundancy mode of the RSP. This command also displays
information about the number of switchovers, system uptime, RSP uptime, and reasons for
any switchovers.

Router# show version

Use this command to display image information for each RSP.
