Configuration Examples for ROM Monitor Upgrades
Troubleshooting Tips
• If any node cannot be upgraded successfully or if you see error messages similar to the following
message, try reformatting the bootflash (format bootflash: [location all | nodeID]) and then repeat
this upgrade procedure:
LC/0/3/CPU0:rommon_burner[65635]: %ROMMON_BURNER-3-FILE_OP_ERR : Opening ROMMON flash
partition failed: No such file or directory in function main at line 952
• If you are upgrading only ROMMONB and the version does not change to the expected version after
the upgrade, the upgrade might have failed. When the router cannot load ROMMONB, it will load
ROMMONA.
• If both ROMMANB and ROMMONA are damaged due to unexpected node reset or power
interruption during the upgrade, the affected route processors must be returned to Cisco for repair.
