10.
Abort the Upgrade To abort the upgrade at this point, input the command:
SWAP ACTIVITY FORCE
Reload the Line Card (s) that was upgraded in Step 8 with the original load
and restart the Line Cards.
SET CARD=<slot(s) with Line Card> TEMPLOAD=<old
load>
RESTART CARD=<slot-list>
The active control module releases activity.
The previously inactive control module takes activity and becomes active
with the original load. The previously active control module restarts and
syncs up with the newly active one.
The system is now running on the original CFC loads and database.
11.
Commit to new loads To commit to the new loads, set them as Preferred for the control module
and service modules using the SET CARD <card> PREFLOAD <load-
name> command. The Database in Upgrade alarm is cleared and the
inactive reboots with the new load and re synchronizes to the active CM.
Immediately upgrade the remaining service modules.
Note: The user should not attempt to perform any
maintenance activity on the INACTCFC until it
has re-synchronized with the ACTCFC. The
possibility of load corruption could occur on the
INACTCFC rendering it out of service.
Note: An Inconsistent Load Minor alarm will be posted
against any Line Card whose running major and
minor software load version does not match the
preferred major and minor software load version
of the active CFC. The alarm is raised whenever
the CFC is taken out of upgrade mode. This is
intended to maintain consistency of load
versions throughout the system.
Also the user should make a copy of the control module load and set it as
ALTLOAD.
The user should perform a database backup to a new database file name
using the BACKUP DATABASE commands. Refer to Section 1.9.
The old loads can now be deleted from control module FLASH, if desired,
using the DELETE FILE command.
