Hi Guys

Install operation 46 failed at 07:26:04 UTC Sat Nov 09 2013.

The operation is requesting for: iosxr-routing-4.3.1, iosxr-fwding-4.3.1, iosxr-infra-4.3.1, and iosxr-os-4.3.1 packages

I've installed the following SMUs: CSCug87873 and CSCuf26300 according to the upgrade procedure, because I'm installing mpls package.

Here's the available packages for activate:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:PE01CPARTY(admin)#install activate ?

  WORD                                        User specified package(s) to activate

  disk0:asr9k-base-4.2.3.CSCud98419-1.0.0     Package to activate

  disk0:asr9k-doc-px-4.3.1                    Package to activate

  disk0:asr9k-fpd-px-4.3.1                    Package to activate

  disk0:asr9k-k9sec-px-4.3.1                  Package to activate

  disk0:asr9k-mcast-px-4.3.1                  Package to activate

  disk0:asr9k-mgbl-px-4.3.1                   Package to activate

  disk0:iosxr-infra-4.2.3.CSCud98419-1.0.0    Package to activate

  disk0:iosxr-infra-4.3.1.CSCug87873-1.0.0    Package to activate

  disk0:iosxr-routing-4.3.1.CSCug87873-1.0.0  Package to activate

  id                                          The id of the install add operation containing packages to activate

Despite I've added the iosxr-routing-4.3.1, iosxr-fwding-4.3.1, and iosxr-infra-4.3.1 packages, the operation keeps requesting for them, additionally is requesting for iosxr-os-4.3.1 package, but I don't know where this package is.

Hope you can help me to understand this issue.

Thanks!

Marcelo

Hi Marcelo,

Did you add mini-px ?

Venkat

Hi Ventak

Yes, I added mini-px, this packet was added correctly.

Marcelo

Hi Marcelo,

In order to upgrade you must activate all v2 packages at the same time, and these v2 packages must cover all current v1 activated packages at a minimum.

Take for instance your 'show install active summary' says that you have the 4.3.0 mini and mcast packages active: This means that to upgrade to 4.3.1 the minimum packages required when running the 'install activate' command is the mini and mcast because we must keep the same software version for all active packages.

You cannot upgrade some packages to v2 and keep others as v1. This is why the MPLS package is complaining that the routing, forwarding, infra, and OS packages (part of the mini) are not the right version.

Given the outputs it looks like you need to add the mini for 4.3.1 to your 'install activate' command string.

Thanks,

Sam

Hi Sam

Thanks for your explanation I got it, however how to activate the mini-px also? because this packet is not available to activate despite it was added correctly with "install add" command. The following is the result of the "install add" command

I really appreciate your support!

Marcelo

Marcelo,

If you have installed mini-px already then its not required now. check in show install active summary. If its not there then you need to again add using install add with the mini-px as you did for other packages. While activation, you can just do admin install activate disk0:*4.3.1 , this will install everything at shot. hope this helps.

Regards,

Venkat.

Hi Guys

Thanks for your help, I got success by doing turboboot upgrade procedure. I think this procedure is easier and controlled way to.

Regards,

Marcelo
