Introduction
This document describes a procedure to delete the logs stored in ASR-9001(-S) as much as possible for the customer shipment, followed by the procedure to upgrade the FPD to the latest version after installing IOS-XR 4.3.2.
* This document uses the example of IOS-XR 4.3.2, but the procedure is the same for the other versions as well.
* Besides ASR-9001(-S), this method is applicable to ASR9000 Series and CRS Series.
Necessary Equipment
- ASR-9001(-S)
- ASR-9001-FAN (qty 1)
- A9K-750W-AC (qty 2 (minimum 1))
- TFTP Server connection (use MgmtEth0)
- Console connection to ASR-9001(-S)
Necessary files (you can download from CCO)
- asr9k mini px.vm 4.3.2
- asr9k-fpd-px.pie-4.3.2
1. Changing to the ROMMON Mode
Upon power-on and at the time of Ctrl+C being displayed, enter Ctrl+C, to change to the Rommon mode
Transition to ROMMON Mode
MBI validation sending request. [CTRL-C] MBI Validation aborted |
2. Setting ROMMON Enviroment Variables
Dependent on the work environment, set the ROMMON variables
ROMMON Environment Variable Settings Example
rommon B1 > set << Check the initial state |
3. TURBO BOOT
Install the IOS-XR, adding an option to ignore the existing settings.
* Configure the TFTP server settings according to your environment.
* -o none is the option without loading the Admin Mode settings
* -a none is the option without loading the Exec Mode settings
TURBO BOOT Execution Example
rommon B10 > boot tftp://asr9k-mini-px.vm-4.3.2 -a none -o none |
4. Login with Temporary ID and Password
Configure a temporary ID and a password to log in (they will be deleted later).
ID/Password Setting Example
!!! NO root-system username is configured. Need to configure root-system username. !!! --- Administrative User Dialog --- Enter root-system username: cisco Username: cisco RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios# |
5. Formatting User Area
Initialize the user area while waiting for LC to start up.
Format for NVRAM
Format for nvram:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios#erase nvram: |
Format for NVRAM(Raw AREA)
Format for NVRAM (Raw AREA)
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios#erase nvram-raw: |
Format for Disk0a
Format for disk0a:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios#format disk0a: Format will destroy all data on "disk0a:. Continue? [confirm] [Enter Key] Device partition disk0a: is now formated and is available for use. |
Format Hard Drive
Format the hard drive:
RP / 0 / RSP0 / CPU0: ios # format hard drive: Format will destroy all data on "harddisk:". Continue? [confirm] [Enter Key] Device partition harddisk: is now formated and is available for use. |
Format for Configflash
Format for configflash:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios#format configflash: Format operation may take a while. Continue? [confirm] [Enter Key] Format will destroy all data on "configflash:". Continue? [confirm] [Enter Key] |
6. Checking the LC Status
Verify that the LC state is IOS XR RUN.
Checking the LC Status
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios#show platform Node Type State Config State ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 0/RSP0/CPU0 ASR9001-RP(Active) IOS XR RUN PWR,NSHUT,MON 0/0/CPU0 ASR9001-LC IOS XR RUN PWR,NSHUT,MON |
7. Formatting User Area on LC
Formatting Bootflash on LC
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:ios#format bootflash: location 0/0/cpu0
Format operation may take a while. Continue? [confirm] [Enter Key]
Format will destroy all data on "bootflash:". Continue? [confirm] [Enter Key] bootflash on node0_0_CPU0 formatted successfully. |
8. Checking the FPD Version
Verify the FPD Version, and if there is an “Yes,” even one in the Upg/Dng, proceed to the Upgrade Procedure (9). If there are all “No”, proceed to the System Rebooting Procedure (11), since a FPD upgrade is not required.
Checking the FPD Version

Hello,
I am trying to make a turbo boot from USB to an ASR-9001 with IOS XR 5.2.4. But when I try Clear the ROM Monitor environmental variables on all RSP cards with clear BOOT the BOOT parameter is not recognized. What is it due to?
Best Regards
Bengt
