Juniper JUNOS 10.2, Upgrade Manual

Page: 50 / 96

Newer JUNOS services for some PICs can require significant Internet Processor ASIC
memory, and some configuration rules limit certain combinations of PICs if they are
installed on some platforms.
During software installation, the configuration checker in the installation program
checks the router’s PICs. If any configuration rules affect your PIC combinations, the
installation process stops and displays a message similar to the following:
The combination of PICS in FPC slot 3 is not supported with this release
PIC slot 0 -
PIC slot 1 - 1x OC-12 ATM-II IQ
PIC slot 2 - 1x G/E IQ, 1000 BASE
PIC slot 3 - 1x Link Service (4)
If you continue the installation, one or more PICs on
FPC slot 3 might appear to be online but
cannot be enabled and cannot pass traffic with this release of JUNOS.
See the Release Notes for more information.
WARNING: This installation attempt will be aborted. If you
WARNING: wish to force the installation despite these warnings
WARNING: you may use the 'force' option on the command line.
pkg_add: package /var/tmp/jbundle-7.6R1.x-domestic-signed.tgz fails requirements
- not installed
The configuration checker has the following limitations:
■
If a PIC is offline when you upgrade the router with new software, the
configuration checker cannot detect PIC combinations affected by configuration
rules and cannot warn about them.
■
If you specify the
force
option when you upgrade the JUNOS Software, the
configuration checker warns about the affected PIC combination and the software
installation continues. However, after rebooting, one or more PICs might fail to
initialize.
■
The configuration checker looks for combinations of three affected PICs. If an
Enhanced FPC contains four affected PICs, the script generates multiple warnings.
If you install a PIC into a router already running JUNOS Software, you can identify
the presence of affected PIC combinations from messages in the system logging
(
syslog
) file:
