Before You Begin
•
Before upgrading the FPD, you must install and activate the -fpd.pie. For information about performing
this task, see the
Upgrading and Managing Cisco IOS XR Software
module.
•
The FPD upgrade procedure is performed while the card is online. At the end of the procedure the card
must be reloaded before the FPD upgrade is complete. To automatically reload the card, you can use
the
reload
keyword in the
upgrade hw-module fpd
command. Alternatively, you can use the
hw-module
reload
command during your next maintenance window. The upgrade procedure is not complete until
the card is reloaded.
Upgrading the FPD image on a SPA or SIP using the
reload
keyword temporarily places
the card offline at the end of the upgrade procedure, and may interrupt traffic.
Note
•
During the FPD upgrade, you
must not
do the following:
◦
Reload, perform an online insertion and removal (OIR) of a line card (LC), or power down the
chassis. Doing so may cause the node to enter an unusable state.
◦
Press
Ctrl-C
if the console appears to hang without any output. Doing so may abort the upgrade.
•
If you are not sure whether a card requires an FPD upgrade, you can install the card and use the
show hw-module fpd
command to determine if the FPD image on the card is compatible with the
currently running Cisco IOS XR software release.
