7.
Switch activity and activate the
new control module load.
Input the command:
- SWAP ACTIVITY
The active control module releases activity, The previously inactive con-
trol module takes activity and becomes the active CFC with the new load.
The newly inactive does not reboot, however, so no database changes are
synchronized to it.
Note: Whenever the active CFC is in upgrade mode, all
commands are allowed, but a warning is displayed to
remind the user that the system is in upgrade mode
and changes are not being saved to FLASH memory
until the upgrade is committed.
8.
Upgrade at least 1 Line Card and
perform any verification tests.
The user upgrades one or more Line Cards for verification test purposes.
The user does this by setting the new load as temporary, so the module
will boot using the new load.
SET CARD=<slot(s) with Line Card> TEMPLOAD=<latest
load>
The user then loads the temp load into the Line Card(s) by restarting the
line Card(s)
RESTART CARD=<slot-list>
9.
New Load Verification The user executes new load verification testing.
Once testing is complete, the user may accept the new loads and commit
to them or not accept them and abort back to the original loads.
To abort - go to Step 10, Abort the Upgrade.
To commit - go to Step 11, Commit to new loads.
