Chapter 4 Consolidated Packages and SubPackages Management
Upgrading Individual SubPackages
Upgrading a SPA SubPackage
In the following example, the request platform software package install command is used to upgrade
a SIPSPA subpackage for the SPA in bay 0 of the SIP in router slot 1. In this example, the force option,
which forces the upgrade past any prompt (such as already having the same subpackage installed), is
used.
Caution Do not run your router using subpackages from different consolidated packages.
The Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router is not designed to use multiple subpackages from different
consolidated packages. Running subpackages from different consolidated packages is not recommended
and can cause unpredictable router behavior.
Individual subpackages should only be upgraded individually if you or a Cisco customer support
representative has determined that upgrading to the same subpackage that is running could have some
benefit for your Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router.
