Step 11
redundancy force-switchover
Example:
Router# redundancy force-switchover
Force a switchover from the active IOS process to the
standby IOS process.
Note Your connection to the router often drops and is
expected behavior at this point of the procedure in
many scenarios.
If this step drops your connection to the router, wait
a fe
w minutes before reconnecting to the router and
then continue to Step 12.
Step 12
show platform
Example:
Router# show platform
(Optional) Monitor system state to ensure both IOS
processes are active.
Step 13
issu loadversion rp 0 file
file-system
:asr1000rp1-{rpaccess,rpios,rpcontrol
}*
version-string*.pkg bay standby-bay force
Example:
Router# issu loadversion rp 0 file
bootflash:asr1000rp1-{rpaccess,rpios,rpcontrol}
*02.02.01.122-33.XNB1*.pkg bay 0 force
Upgrade the RPAccess, RPIOS, and RPControl
subpackages in the standby bay (a different bay than in
Step 9).
Step 14
issu commitversion
Example:
Router# issu commitversion
Commit the software version.
Step 15
issu loadversion rp 0 file
file-system:asr1000rp1-{sipbase,sipspa}*version*.
pkg slot
SIP-slot-number force
issu commitversion
Repeat this step for each SIP installed in your
router befo
re proceeding to the next step.
Example:
Router# issu loadversion rp 0 file
bootflash:asr1000rp1-{sipspa,sipbase}*02.02.01.
122-33.XNB1*.pkg slot 0 force
Router# iss
u commitversion
Router# iss
u loadversion rp 0 file
bootflash:asr1000rp1-{sipspa,sipbase}*02.02.01.
122-33.XNB1*.pkg slot 1 force
Router# iss
u commitversion
Router# iss
u loadversion rp 0 file
bootflash:asr1000rp1-{sipspa,sipbase}*02.02.01.
122-33.XNB1*.pkg slot 2 force
Router# iss
u commitversion
Upgrade the SIP and SPA subpackages for each SIP on the
router.
Note This step must be completed one SIP at a time, and
repeated for each SIP installed on the router before
performing the next step.
Tip You can use the show ip interface brief command
to identify which slots contain SIPs and SPAs. The
interfaces with three numbers (in the form
SIP-number/SPA-number/interface-number)
identify the SIP and SPA locations in the router.
Note The pattern options used in this CLI (sipbase and
sipspa) were introduced in Cisco IOS XE Release
2.1.2 and are not available in previous Cisco IOS
XE Releases.
See the “ISSU Procedures (Prior to Cisco IOS XE
Release 2.1.2)” section on page 74 for pre-Cisco
IOS XE Release 2.1.2 ISSU upgrade procedures.
