Chapter 5 Software Upgrade Processes Supported by Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers
Using ISSU to Upgrade the Subpackages in a Dual Route Processor Configuration with MDR
DETAILED STEPS
Command or Action Purpose
Step 1
show version
show version
active-rp installed
show version
standby-rp installed
dir
filesystem:<directory>
show platform
Example:
Router# show version
Router# show version r0 installed
Router# show version r1 installed
Router# dir bootflash:
Router# show platform
(Optional) Use the following commands to confirm the
current router configuration, as follows:
• show version and show version active-rp
installed—Verify the running version of the Cisco IOS
XE software on the router, and which file was used to
boot the router, and where that file is stored.
• dir—Confirm that the files that were used to boot the
router are located in the directory.
• show platform—Confirm the current status of the
active and standby RPs.
Step 2
mkdir URL-to-directory-name
Example:
Router# mkdir bootflash:tmp
Creates a directory to store the consolidated package and
subpackages.
This directory must be created in most cases because the
consolidated packages and subpackages have to be
separated from the subpackages that booted the router at
this step of the procedure.
Step 3
ip tftp source-interface gigabitethernet port
Example:
Router(config)# ip tftp source-interface
gigabitethernet 0
Specifies the Gigabit Ethernet TFTP source-interface to be
configured:
slot/port—Specifies the location of the TFTP
source-interface.
Note To copy a file using TFTP through the Management
Ethernet interface, the ip tftp source-interface
GigabitEthernet 0 command must be entered
before entering the copy tftp command.
Step 4
copy tftp: URL-to-target-location
Example:
Router# copy tftp: bootflash:tmp
Copies the consolidated package file into the directory
created in Step 2.
The consolidated package in this step should not be copied
into the same directory where the subpackages that are
currently running your router are stored (the directory
containing the packages.conf provisioning file from which
the router was booted).
Tip It is recommended that you copy the package onto
a usb: or harddisk: file system for space
considerations when performing this step of the
procedure.
