Basic Procedure for Upgrading to Release 10.1
In order to upgrade to JUNOS 10.0 or later, you must be running JUNOS 9.0S2, 9.1S1,
9.2R4, 9.3R3, 9.4R3, 9.5R1, or later minor versions, or you must specify the
no-validate option on the
request system software install
command.
When upgrading or downgrading the JUNOS Software, always use the
jinstall
package.
Use other packages (such as the
jbundle
package) only when so instructed by a Juniper
Networks support representative. For information about the contents of the
jinstall
package and details of the installation process, see the
Junos OS Installation and
Upgrade Guide
.
NOTE:
You cannot upgrade by more than three releases at a time. For example, if
your routing platform is running JUNOS Release 9.4 you can upgrade to JUNOS
Release 10.0 but not to JUNOS Release 10.1 As a workaround, first upgrade to JUNOS
Release 10.0 and then upgrade to JUNOS Release 10.1.
NOTE:
With JUNOS Release 9.0 and later, the compact flash disk memory requirement
for JUNOS Software is 1 GB. For M7i and M10i routers with only 256 MB memory,
see the Customer Support Center JTAC Technical Bulletin PSN-2007-10-001 at
