Prerequisites for Upgrading IOS-XR Software Prior to Migrating to a Cisco CRS-3 Carrier Routing System
At least a 2 GB F AT32 flashdisk is required to upgrade to Cisco IOS XR software Release 4.0.0.T (PX)
or Cisco
Migration to CRS-3 section for more information.
The minimum version of ROMMON software supported is ROMMON release 1.54. Refer to the
ROMMON Upgrades section for more information.
IOS XR software Release 4.0.1(PX). Refer to the Cisco IOS-XR Flash Disk Requirements for
ROMMON Upgrades
Your existing Cisco CRS-1 16-Slot Line Card Ch assis Route Proce ssors (RPs) an d Distributed Route
Processors (DRPs) must be running minimum ROMMON versions before migrating to a Cisco
16-Slot Line Card Chassis.
Tab le 1-2Cisco CRS-1 to Cisco CRS-3 IOS XR Software Supported ROMMON Versions
Table 1-2 describes the minimum ROMMON versions that are supported.

Warning
OPTION-A
OPTION-B
While performing a turbo boot of 4.0.X (PX) images the ROMMON version needs to be 2.01 due to
image size increase, otherwise the turbo boot will fail. Refer to Appendix A for more information on
performing the turbo boot. Appendix A also describes how to upgrade your ROMMON version to 2.01
Currently on most systems with IOS-XR Softw are Re lease 3.8.4 or hi gher or IOS-X R Softwa re Release
3.9.0 or higher images ROMMON version 1.54 is supported/installed. While upgrading from IOS-XR
Software Release 3.8.4 or higher to IOS-XR Software Release 4.0.0.X (PX) you can upgrade the FPD
images using the Auto FPD procedure. The Auto FPD procedure upgrades the ROMMON images on
ROMMON B before resetting the router for upgrades. After the software upgrade is complete and the
router is up and running you then have to manually upgrade the ROMMON A images. Upgrade
ROMMON A by executing the following command from admin mode:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:CRS-1(admin)#upgrade rommon a all disk0
For Auto FPD to work please execute the following command in admin mode
The other option is to upgrade the ROMMON manually after the image upgrade. The upgrade will not
fail even if the ROMMON images are 1.54 or 1.52.
Detailed procedures for ROMMON upgrade is detailed inthe Upgrading and Downgrading ROM
Monitor Firmware on Cisco CRS Routers section in the Cisco IOS XR ROM Monitor Guide for the Cisco
CRS Router document online.

Cisco IOS-XR Flash Disk Requirements for Migration to CRS-3
Cisco IOS-XR Flash Disk Requirements for Migration to CRS-3
You can only upgrade your filesystem to FAT32 u sing the CLI specifed in this section if you are running
Cisco
IOS XR software Release 3.8.2 or above.
If you are running a release of Cisco IOS XR software earlier than 3.8.2 please refer to Upgrading Your
File System From FAT16 to FAT32 in Appendix A, “Turbo Boot Procedure” for formatting the File
system to FAT32 using KSH.
Cisco IOS XR software Release 4.0.X (PX) requires at least a 2GB flash disk for installation or upgrade.
So prior to upgrading your current IOS XR software to IOS-XR Software Release 4.0.X (PX), you will
need to upgrade the flash disk to either 2GB or 4GB.
The size of the image is significantly higher on the Cisco CRS-3 because x86 support is now included
in addition to the PPC support. A FAT32 formatted flash disk will decrease the required space for the
file system significantly. It is highly recommended to use a 4G flash disk with FAT-32 file-system on the
Cisco
CRS-3.
Checking your Existing Flash Disk Size
Execute the show filesystem command to check the actual disk0 size:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Router#sho filesystem
Wed Feb 11 15:28:57.401 PST PST
File Systems:
In the example shown, the flash disk (disk0) size is 1 Gig.
If the disk size is smaller than 2Gig you will need to upgrade the flash disk.
The procedures for flash disk upgrade are detailed in the Cisco XR 12000 Series Router and Cisco CRS-1
Router Flash Disk Upgrade Tasks document online here:
The first step is to insert a 4GB Cisco Authorized Flash disk int o slot disk1 of Act ive and Standby RP.
After Insertion verify the 4GB disk is accessible from RP

Disk Formatting
Format the 4GB flashdisk on standby RP disk1: by executing the following command
The above command will create a partition of 3.5/0.5 between disk1 and disk1a
NoteExecuting this command will not cause the RP to reset
Verifying the Disk File System
Verify the filesytem is changed to FAT32 file system and desired 80% and 20% partition between disk1

After verifying that disk mirroring is successfully enabled i n the previ ous section, swap disk0 w ith disk1
(insert 4GB disk in disk0 slot)
Verifying Standby RP Disk Upgrade
Verify that the Standby RP boots with the 4GB flashdisk as the primary disk(disk0) on the Standby RP.

Chapter 1 Migrating to a Cisco CRS-3 Carrier Routing System
File System Upgrade Procedure for 2GB Flash Disks
Performing Switchover
Perform an RP switchover and verify that the Standby RP becomes the Active RP.
Upgrading the Standby RP
Once you have verified the switchover was successful, repeat the flashdisk upgrade steps on the new
Standby RP and verify results.
File System Upgrade Procedure for 2GB Flash Disks
First do the format of the boot device of the standby RP location.
format disk0: unpartition filesystem fat32 location 0/rp1/CPU0
This command formats the boot device of the stan db y RP an d results i n a reload of t he standby RP. This
will result in a 2GB FAT32 file system, Since the device is unpartitioned means no disk mirroring.
Once the standby RP reload, it would come back, format the device with your specifications and would
start downloading all the packages from RP again. This takes time depending on the number of
packages/config you have on the RP.
Verify using the below command that Standby RP disk is running with your expected
filesystem/partition.
show media location 0/rp1/CPU0
Once the standby RP is up and running, perform a Switch Over from the acti v e to the standb y RP and let
the new Standby RP (old Active) come up as standby Ready.
Perform the process for the new standby RP location as well.
Reducing Disk Space Usage
If the flash disk size is 2 Gig you still may want to increase available disk space. In order to provide as
much room as possible on the disk, one can remove old f iles from the disk. This may include f iles which
the operator has placed on the disk device such as PIE files or temporary directories that have been
created.
When preparing for the upgrade to the next version of the operating system, the old, non-operational
version should be removed.
To remove old SMU files and old versions of the operating system use the admin-commands
install commit
to ensure all active packages are 'committed', then issue the command
install re move in ac tive
The install re move i na ctive te st s yn c command can be used first to show which packages will be
removed from the disk.
NoteIn addition to checking the installation disk device, the bootflash device on the MSCs should also be
checked. Extraneous files such as crashinfo files can be removed.

File System Upgrade Procedure for 2GB Flash Disks
To check the free space of the bootflash use the following command:
dir bootflash: location 0/1/CPU0
Check if all the cards in the system are all up using the admin command
show platform
If any of the cards do not boot properly they have to be replaced or be shut down using the admin
command
hw-module power disable location <loc>
Minimizing Traffic Loss During the Upgrade
To minimize traffic loss during the upgrade please follow below steps:
Step 1Make sure that all the traff ic flowing through the router which needs to be upgraded h as an alternate path .
In this scenario one can take one of the redundant r outers out of service, upg rade it and then bring it back
into service without any significant t raffic loss (this sh ould work for the core routers, for the edge de vices
usually the redundant path may not be available)
Step 2Set IGP metric to the highest possible value so the IGP will try to route the traffic through the alternate
path.
Chapter 1 Migrating to a Cisco CRS-3 Carrier Routing System
For OSPF use the max-metric command.
router(config-ospf)#max-metric router-lsa
For ISIS use the spf-overload-bit command.
router(config-isis)#set-overload-bit
Step 3After all the software is upgraded restore the IGP metric by removing the commands:
For OSPF use the no max-metric command
router(config-ospf)#no max-metric router-lsa
For ISIS use the nospf-overload-bit command.
router(config-isis)#no set-overload-bit
Prior to release 3.8 the above commands have to be run before the install activate command is executed,
resulting in a long period of time when the router is taken out of forwarding path.
To minimize this behavior starting from release 3.8, an enhancement has been provided which allows
you to pause the install activate command just prior to the router reloading and to execute configuration
changes such as IGP commands listed above.
Execute the following command to enable this in stall op tion:
You will be prompted pri or to the sy stem reload to execute configuration change s such as IGP
commands. At this point the IGP cost-out operation can be executed.
Step 4Copy the running-configuration and admin-configur ation to a temporary sto rage location. This co uld be
on a remote TFTP server or a device such as the hard disk: or disk0: present on the RP.

Step 5Verify Mgmt access to the router (see caveats section)
Step 6While upgrading from 3.x.x images to 4.x.x images upgrade the file system of flash disks (boot device
which is typically disk0) to FAT32 file system for 2 GB and 4 GB flash disks. The procedure to upgrade
the file system of flash disks is different for 2GB and 4 GB Flash disks.
Verifying that the System Meets RP Memory Requirements
Due to image size increase on x8 6 bas ed PX i mag es you will need to have at least 1 GB of free memory
on each of the Route Processor (RP) modules.
Execute the following command to verify the free memory on the RP.

Execute the cfs check/clear configuration inconsistency command to verify/fix configuration file
system in exec and admin mode.
Additional Pre-upgrade System Checks
Due to increasing size of the images sufficient disk space is required to perform the upgrade. the 2Gig
flash disk option was first introduced in release 3.7.0, An optional 4Gig flash disk is available starting
with the IOS XR 3.8.4 release.
When upgrading to release 4.0.0 or higher, a PCMCIA flash disk of 2Gig or lar ger has to be instal led in
the system BEFORE the software upgrade is performed.
Step 1Use the show filesystem command to check the actual disk0 size:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin)#show filesystem
Wed Oct 13 06:54:57.000 UTC
File Systems:
In order to provide as much room as possible on the disk, one can remove old files from the disk. This
may include files which the operator has placed on the disk device such as PIE files or temporary
directories that have been created.
When preparing for the upgrade to the next version of the operating system, any old, non-operational
versions should be removed.
Step 2Remove old SMUs and old versions of the operating system files by executing the following admin
commands:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin)# show install inactive
Execute the install remove inactive test sync command first to show which packages will be removed
from the disk.
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin)#install remove inactive test sync
Info: This operation will remove the following packages:
Info: disk0:hfr-diags-px-4.0.0.65I
Info: disk0:hfr-diags-supp-4.0.0.65I
Info: disk0:hfr-doc-px-4.0.0.65I
Info: disk0:hfr-doc-supp-4.0.0.65I
Info: disk0:hfr-fit-px-4.0.0.65I
Info: disk0:hfr-fit-4.0.0.65I
IOS-XR Software Upgrade Procedure
The install operation will continue asynchronously.
Step 3Ensure all active packages are 'committed', then issue the install commit command
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin)#install commit
Wed Oct 13 07:10:37.141 UTC
Install operation 193 '(admin) install commit' started by user 'lab' via CLI at
07:10:38 UTC Wed Oct 13 2010.
Install operation 193 completed successfully at 07:10:46 UTC Wed Oct 13 2010.
If any node is not booting properly it has to be replaced or shut down using the hw-module power
disable location 0/1/cpu0 command executed while in admin mode
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin-config)#hw-module power disable location 0/1/cpu0
Step 4Copy the running-configuration and admin-configur ation to a temporary sto rage location. This co uld be
on a remote TFTP server or a device such as the harddisk: or disk0: present on the RP.
NoteCisco recommends copying all the Mandatory PIE files, Optional PIE files, and Recommended
SMUs to the hard disk as part of pre-maintenance acti vity. This will save significant time duri ng
the upgrade process.
Upgrading to Cisco IOS XR Software Release 4.0.X(PX) Before
Migrating to Cisco
Before migrating your CRS-1 hardware to CRS-3 hardware you must complete the software upgrade to
Cisco
IOS XR software Release 4.0.X(PX).
NoteAll install operations should be done while logged into admin mode.
Step 1Add the required PIEs to disk:
router(admin)# install add tar <source>/<path>/<pie> sync
The <source> keyword can be one of disk0:, disk1:, compactflash:, harddisk:, tftp:, ftp: or
.
rcp:
The above step must be repeated for each PIE file, or all of the PIEs can be added together in a single
install add command. To add all PIEs using a single command, list all of the PIEs (including their
source) within the install add command in the following manner:
Cisco CRS-1 Carrier Routing System to Cisco CRS-3 Carrier Routing System Migration Guide
1-14
OL-13669-03
Page 25
Chapter 1 Migrating to a Cisco CRS-3 Carrier Routing System
Upgrading to Cisco IOS XR Software Release 4.0.X(PX) Before Migrating to Cisco CRS-3 Hardware
NoteUnder idle conditions, the "install add" operation may take up to 65 to 100 minutes. During the
“install add” operation your Cisco CRS Series router will remain fully functional.
NoteIf you have any other optional packages installed, the current upgrade has to be done with the
optional packages already installed. Otherwise all optional packages have to be deactivated
(following by the commit) before the upgrade. Side effect of this is loss of the configuration
supported by the PIE.
From Cisco IOS XR software release 3.6.0 onward, an alternate way of adding and installing PIEs is
available. If the PIE files are compressed using tar format they can be loaded on the router using the
following command:
router(admin)# install add tar <source>/<path>/<tar_file> sync
Step 2Test the activation using the test option. Testing the activation will give you a preview of the activation.
NoteNo actual changes will be made when you use the test option with the sync command.
Any config that is incompatible with the new version being activated will be identified. The
show configuration removed command can be used to view what will be removed as resu lt of
the software upgrade (see the Caveats section for details).
Each removed configuration can be reapplied using the load config removed <config>.cfg
command from config mode AFTER the upgrade has been completed (see the Caveats section for
details).
From Cisco IOS XR software release 3.6 onwards, the install command will accept the use of
wildcard pattern matching. The install activate command can be simplified to install activate *3.9* sync test.
FromCisco IOS XR software release 3.7.0 onwards, PIEs can subsequently be activated using the
following single command. Th e
<install_operation_id> variable is based on the install operation
ID generated after each install command:
router(admin)# install activate id <install_operation_id> sync test
The install operation ID is printed after finishing each install command or can be obtained by
running the show install log command.
Step 3Activate all of the packages added in step 1:
The output of the install add command executed in step 1 provides the list of names of packages to be
used in the install activate operation.
Using the sync option prevents other users from executing any other commands during the install
operation.

Upgrading to Cisco IOS XR Software Release 4.0.X(PX) Before Migrating to Cisco CRS-3 Hardware
The router will reload at the end of activation to start using the new packages.
NoteUnder idle conditions, this operation may take at least 20 minutes to complete.
From Cisco IOS XR software release 3.8 onwards, the install command install activate *3.9.* pause
sw-change sync can be used to enable the user to cost the router out of th e IGP path just before the rout er
reloads, rather than at the point where the activation commences.
Step 4Verify system stability through executing the commands described under the Check System Stability
section. This release does not support downgrades from PX to P images.
Step 5Verify activation is successful. Once activation is done and before the install commit operation,
deactivate and remove the upgrade-px.PIE.
Step 6After removing the upgrade-px.PIE execute the i nstall commit command to commit the newly activ ated
software
router(admin)# install commit
Step 7Check to see if there were any failed startup configurations. If there were any startup configurations that
failed (were not applied), then refer to the Caveats section to see how it should be handled.
router# show config failed startup
In same very rare cases inconsistencies in the content of the internal configuration files can occur. In
order to avoid such situations, the following steps are recommended before activating packages:
Step 10Force commit update by using the reload command. Press n when the confirmation prompt appears:
router# reload
Updating Commit Database. Please wait...[OK]
Proceed with reload? [confirm] <- Press "n"
In same cases the following error may be reported:
router#reload
Preparing system for backup. This may take a few minutes ............System
configuration backup in progress [Retry later]
In such a case please re-try the command after some time.
Post-Upgrade Procedure
Step 1Restore the IGP metric if it had been changed before the upgrade

OSPF
router(config-ospf)#no max-metric router-lsa
ISIS
router(config-isis)#no set-overload-bit
Disk Cleanup (Optional)
Once the software upgrade or downgrade has been completed, you can recover some disk space by
removing any inactive packages that are no longer needed (if the packages are required at a later time,
they can be re-added):
Step 1Obtain the list of inactive packages and note the names of packages that are not needed:
Upgrading to Cisco IOS XR Software Release 4.0.X(PX) Before Migrating to Cisco CRS-3 Hardware
or
router(admin)# install remove inactive(to remove all inactive packages)
Using the sync option prevents other users from executing any other command during the install
operation.
Step 3Verify/fix the configuration file system (mandatory)
router(admin)#cfs check
Step 4If the max-metric or set ove rlo a d bi t was set during any of the pre-upgrade tasks restore the metric
using the following commands:
OSPF
router(config-ospf)#no max-metric router-lsa
ISIS
router(config-isis)#no set-overload-bit
Upgrade Firmware (Mandatory)
Both the ROMMON and the FPGA firmw are need to be upgraded af ter the <v ersion> image installation
on the system. For detailed upgrade procedure please refer to the IOS XR Firmware Upgrade Guide
document which can be accessed at:
Cisco CRS-1 Carrier Routing System to Cisco CRS-3 Carrier Routing System Migration Guide
1-17
Page 28
Upgrading to Cisco IOS XR Software Release 4.0.X(PX) Before Migrating to Cisco CRS-3 Hardware
Also refer to the “Other Firmware Support" section in the Release Notes for Cisco CRS-1 and Cisco
CRS-3 for Cisco IOS XR Software Release 4.0.2 document which can be accessed at:
During software upgrade or downg rade, the system could detect incompatible configur ation and remo ve
it from the running configuration. The removed configuration will be saved to a file on the router. A
configuration could also fail due to syntax or semantic error as the router boots the new version of the
software.
To resolve these issues, you must browse the removed or failed configuration and then address the
changes so that the configuration can be properly applied on the new version of software.
Addressing Incompatible and Removed Configurations
During the test activation of a new software version, incompatible configurations will be identified and
removed from the router running configuration. Syslog and console logs will provide the necessary
information on the name of the removed configuration file. To address the incompatible configuration,
you should browse the remov ed conf iguration f i le, address the syntax and semantics errors and re-app ly
the config as required and/or applicable after upgrade.
To display the removed configuration, execute the following command from exec mode:
router# show configuration removed <removed config filename>
Chapter 1 Migrating to a Cisco CRS-3 Carrier Routing System
Addressing Failed Admin and Non-Admin Configurations During Reload
Some configuration may fail to take effect when the router boots with the new software. These
configurations will be sav ed as failed conf iguratio ns. During acti vation o f the new sof tware versio n, you
will be notified via syslog and console log if a configuration failed to take effect. To address the failed
configuration, you should browse both the admin and non-admin failed configurations, address any
syntax and semantics errors found, and then re-apply it as required.
To display the failed configuration, execute the following commands:
router# show configuration failed startup
router(admin)# show configuration failed startup
MDR - Minimum Disruption Restart
The MDR (Minimum Disruption Restart) feature is not supported for upgrades to the
Cisco
It is important that you check to see whether the persistent config and the running config are the same
or different. If they are different then it will ha ve a problem af ter reload/upgrade, because reload/upgrade
will use the persistent config to restore configuration and the restored configuration will be different
from the one you were running.
Execute the following commands to verify that the persistent conf ig and the runnin g config are the same:
show cfgmgr persistent-config - shows the persistent config in CLI form
show running-config - shows running config

You should not use the no interface preconfig <> command if you find that the same config exists in
both preconfig and activate. Use the cfs check command to resolve the inconsistency.
Upgrade Instructions for FAT32
Step 1Once the system is up and running with FAT32, please check the disk usage on the router and make sure
at least 1.3 GB is free on the Cisco

a. Please make sure all inactive old Cisco IOS XR software rele ase pack ages (older than
Cisco
IOS XR software release 4.0.0.T) are removed from the disk.
b. Please make sure all dumper core files and any user files like PIEs etc. are removed from the boot
device to save space.
Step 2Make sure system (RP) has available memory. Please refer to the table above with title RP/SP/LC
Memory Requirements during Upgrade.
Step 3Make sure other management nodes RP/DRP/SC also have available memory. This is applicable to a
multishelf platform. The available memory on other RPs should be around the same as the Standby RP
of the DSC.
Step 4Copy the TAR ball of all Cisco IOS XR software release 4.0 PX packages (mini-px.pie + upgrade
package + optional PX Package and any SMUs) to the hard disk.

Warning
Make sure the T AR pa ckag e contains all the necessary optional packages (mgbl, mpls, mcast, k9sec,
doc, diag, fpd). If any of the packages are missed during the upgrade, upgrade activation doesn't
complain about the missing package and incompatibilities.
If install add is being done as TAR ball, then the memory requirements on the Route Processor (RP)
would be high as contents would be untarred in the /tmp folder. To avoid the usage of RP memory, you
can resort to install add of independent packages using the below command. But this typically leads to
longer install add times than with the TAR ball install add.

Chapter 1 Migrating to a Cisco CRS-3 Carrier Routing System
Benchmark the Traffic
Before starting the migration process, take a snapshot of the traffic flow ing through the router and use
it as a benchmark to compare against traffic flow during the migration and/or after completing the
migration. Since it is a hitless migration, there should be zero impact to the traffic flow during the
migration and/or after completing the migration.
• To avoid traffic loss, you must upgrade the switch fabric one plane at a time. To do that, you must
replace each FC/S card with a new FC-140G/S card and restore service to that fabric plane before
upgrading the next fabric plane.
• You will probably want to perform the migration during a network maintenance window or when
system traffic is light.
NoteBe sure to review the migration procedures before deciding when to schedule the migration.
That way, you can familiarize yourself with the migration procedure and determine if there
are other issues to consider before performing the migration.
• Cisco recommends not moving a chassis after it is cabled. Before the fabric cables are installed, the
chassis should be fully installed with power supplies, console cables, grounded, and so forth
How to Migrate to a Cisco CRS-3 Carrier Routing System (16-Slot)
How to Migrate to a Cisco CRS-3 Carrier Routing System
(16-Slot)
To migrate from a 16-slot Cisco CRS-1 Carrier Routing System to a 16-slot Cisco CRS-3 Carrier
Routing System, you must complete the following tasks:
• Administratively Disabling the Fabric Plane, page 1-5
• Disabling Power to the CRS-1 Fabric Card, page 1-7.
• Physically Removing the CRS-1 Fabric Card, p age 1-9
• Installing an SFC, page 1-11.
• Verifying the Installation of an SFC, page 1-15
The migration procedure may be done on one Fabric Card at-a-time.
In a CRS-1 system with redundant fabric (i.e. 8 planes), upgrade to CRS-3 fabric is hitless - zero drop
in traffic as we upgrade plane by plane from a CRS-1 to CRS-3.
The detailed migration procedure is detailed in the sections below, for the 16-slot Cisco CRS-1 Carrier
Routing System.
Administratively Disabling the Fabric Plane
This section describes how to migrate the fabric cards in a single-chassis system and establish
communications between the designated shelf controller (DSC) LCC and one or more FCCs.

NoteRemove only one impedance carrier or CRS-1 fabri c card and in stall one CRS-3 f abric card at a
time. Be sure to verify that each CRS- 3 fabric card is fully installed and secured before installi ng
another card.
Step 4Remove the CRS-3 fabric card you are installing from its antistatic packaging.
Step 5Use the screwdriver to unscrew and remo v e the sheetmet al co v e r o v er th e HBMT connec tors on the rea r
of the CRS-3 fabric card, and set it aside.
Step 6Remove the caps from the HBMT connectors on the back of the card, and set them carefully aside.
Step 7Visually inspect the connector on the card before you insert it into the chassis. Do not attempt to install
a card with a damaged or dirty connector, as this action may damage the backplane connector or OIM.
NoteRails exist on the upper and lo wer l eft edges of the card that align with th e slots in the card cage.
When you install a card in the card cage, make sure that you orient the card correctly and align
these rails when sliding the card into the chassis.
Chapter 1 Migrating to a Cisco CRS-3 Carrier Routing System
Step 8Grasp the slide assistance arm with one hand and place your other hand under the carrier to support and
guide it into the correct slot. DO NOT LIFT CARDS BY THE SLIDE-ASSISTANCE ARM; lift them
from the bottom, using the slide-assistance arm only as an aid for balance.
CautionA CRS-3 fabric card weighs about 30 lb (14 kg). You should use two hands when handling a
CRS-3 fabric card.
Step 9Slide the card halfway into the slot. Avoid touching the card circuitry and any connectors.
Step 10Pivot both card ejector levers so the openi ngs o n the card ejector cams at the top and bottom of the card
pass over the tabs on each side of the card cage slot.
CautionVerify that the openings on the card ejector cams pass over the tabs; otherwise, one or both
ejector levers might bind when you attempt to close the ejector levers, thereby damaging or
breaking one or both ejector levers.
Step 11Continue sliding the card into the card cage slot until the openings on the card ejector cams engage the
tabs on each side of the card cage slot.
NoteThe CRS-3 fabric card has guide pins that make initial contact with the backplane connector as
you slide the card into its slot. After the guide pins make contact, continue pushing on the card
carrier until the card ejector levers begin pivoting forward, toward the handle in the card carrier.
Step 12T o seat the card in the backplane connector, grasp both card ejector levers and piv ot them inward to wa rd
the handle in the card carrier until they are flush against the front edge of the card carrier.

Troubleshooting the CRS-3 Fabric Card
If the installed or replaced CRS-3 fabric card fails to operate or power up on installation:
• Make sure that the card is seated firmly in the Cisco CRS Fabric Card Chassis slot. One easy way
to verify physical installation is to see whether the front faceplate of the CRS-3 fabric card is even
with the fronts of the other cards installed in the card cage.
• Check whether the ejector levers are latched and that the captive screws are fastened properly . If you
are uncertain, unlatch the levers, loosen the screws, and attempt to reseat the CRS-3 fabric card.
• Examine the Cisco CRS Fabric Card Chassis alarm module to see if there are any active alarm
conditions. (See the section on the alarm module in Cisco CRS Carrier Routing System 16-Slot
System Description.)
• Examine the Cisco CRS Fabric Card Chassis power shelves to see whether the chassis, as a whole,
is receiving power.
Use the Status LEDs, located on the CRS-3 fabric card faceplate, to verify the correct installation of the
CRS-3 fabric card:
• When the CRS-3 fabric card is properly installed, the Status LED turns green. If this LED is off,
verify that the CRS-3 fabric card is installed correctly.

How to Migrate to a Cisco CRS-3 Carrier Routing System (8-Slot)
To migrate from an 8-slot Cisco CRS-1 Carrier Routing System to an 8-slot Cisco CRS-3 Carrier
Routing System, you must complete the following tasks:
• Administratively Disabling the Fabric Plane, page 1-5
• Disabling Power to the CRS-1 Fabric Card, page 1-7.
• Physically Removing the CRS-1 Fabric Card, p age 1-9
• Installing a CRS-3 Fabric Card, page 1-11.
• Verifying the Installation of the CRS-3 Fabric Card, page 1-15
The migration procedure may be done on one Fabric Card at-a-time.
In a CRS-1 system with redundant fabric (i.e. 8 planes), migrating to the CRS-3 fabric is hitless - zero
drop in traffic as we migrate plane by plane from a CRS-1 to CRS-3 .
The detailed migration procedure is detailed in the sections below, for the 8-slot Cisco CRS-3 Carrier
Routing System.
Administratively Disabling the Fabric Plane
This section describes how to migrate the fabric cards in a single-chassis system and establish
communications between the designated shelf controller (DSC) LCC and one or more FCCs.

Step 3Remove the SFC impedance carrier or CRS-1 fabric card you are replacing from the designated slot, and
set it carefully aside. (See the “Removing an Impedance Carrier” section in the Cisco CRS Carrier
Routing System 8-Slot Line Card Chassis Installation Guide or the “Removing an SFC” section in the
Cisco CRS Carrier Routing System 8-Slot Line Card Chassis Installation Guide.)
Chapter 1 Migrating to a Cisco CRS-3 Carrier Routing System
NoteRemove only one impedance carrier or CRS-1 fabri c card and in stall one CRS-3 f abric card at a
time. Be sure to verify that each CRS- 3 fabric card is fully installed and secured before installi ng
another card.
Step 4Remove the CRS-3 fabric card you are installing from its antistatic packaging.
Step 5Use the screwdriver to unscrew and remo v e the sheetmet al co v e r o v er th e HBMT connec tors on the rea r
of the CRS-3 fabric card, and set it aside.
Step 6Remove the caps from the HBMT connectors on the back of the card, and set them carefully aside.
Step 7Visually inspect the connector on the card before you insert it into the chassis. Do not attempt to install
a card with a damaged or dirty connector, as this action may damage the backplane connector or OIM.
NoteRails exist on the upper and lo wer l eft edges of the card that align with th e slots in the card cage.
When you install a card in the card cage, make sure that you orient the card correctly and align
these rails when sliding the card into the chassis.
Step 8Grasp the slide assistance arm with one hand and place your other hand under the carrier to support and
guide it into the correct slot. DO NOT LIFT CARDS BY THE SLIDE-ASSISTANCE ARM; lift them
from the bottom, using the slide-assistance arm only as an aid for balance.
CautionA CRS-3 fabric card weighs about 30 lb (14 kg). Y ou should use tw o hands when handling the
CRS-3 fabric card.
Step 9Slide the card halfway into the slot. Avoid touching the card circuitry and any connectors.
Step 10Pivot both card ejector levers so the openi ngs o n the card ejector cams at the top and bottom of the card
pass over the tabs on each side of the card cage slot.

CautionVerify that the openings on the card ejector cams pass over the tabs; otherwise, one or both
ejector levers might bind when you attempt to close the ejector levers, thereby damaging or
breaking one or both ejector levers.
Step 11Continue sliding the card into the card cage slot until the openings on the card ejector cams engage the
tabs on each side of the card cage slot.
NoteA CRS-3 fabric card has guide pins that make initial contact with the backplane connector as
you slide the card into its slot. After the guide pins make contact, continue pushing on the card
carrier until the card ejector levers begin pivoting forward, toward the handle in the card carrier.
Step 12T o seat the card in the b ackplane connector , grasp both card ejector le vers and pi v ot them inward to wa rd
the handle in the card carrier until they are flush against the front edge of the card carrier.

Understanding the Alphanumeric LEDs
At one end of the faceplate, near an ejector lever, a CRS-3 fabric card has two four-digit alphanumeric
LED displays that show a sequence of messages indicating the state of the card. In normal operat ion, the
LED module should display
NoteIt is normal for some displayed messages to appear too briefly in the LED display to be read.

Troubleshooting the CRS-3 Fabric Card
If the installed or replaced CRS-3 fabric card fails to operate or power up on installation:
• Make sure that the card is seated firmly in the Cisco CRS Fabric Card Chassis slot. One easy way
to verify physical installation is to see whether the front faceplate of the CRS-3 fabric card is even
with the fronts of the other cards installed in the card cage.
• Check whether the ejector levers are latched and that the captive screws are fastened properly . If you
are uncertain, unlatch the levers, loosen the screws, and attempt to reseat the CRS-3 fabric card.
• Examine the Cisco CRS Fabric Card Chassis alarm module to see if there are any active alarm
conditions. (See the section on the alarm module in Cisco CRS Carrier Routing System 8-Slot Line
Card Chassis System Description.)
• Examine the Cisco CRS Fabric Card Chassis power shelves to see whether the chassis, as a whole,
is receiving power.
Use the Status LEDs, located on the CRS-3 fabric card faceplate, to verify the correct installation of the
CRS-3 fabric card:
• When the CRS-3 fabric card is properly installed, the Status LED turns green. If this LED is off,
verify that the CRS-3 fabric card is installed correctly.
• If there is a failure during the board boot sequence, the two four-digit alphanumeric LED displays
indicate the current boot phase to assist you in debugging the board failure.

Booting Up the Newly Migrated Cisco CRS-3 Fabric
This section describes the process for booting up the new Cisco CRS-3 fabric.
When the Cisco CRS-3 fabric node is powered on, The Route Processor (RP) will automatically boot the
new fabric. Please wait for the boot process to complete. The node will transition from state MBI-BOOT
to MBI-RUNNING as the software is being installed.
When the boot process completes the node-state will be IOS-XR RUN.

Each plane transitions from UP -> MCAST_DOWN -> DOWN -> MCAST_DOWN -> UP. Thus each
plane will cycle through up->dn twice. This is why the up->dn counter shows 2. Similarly each plane
will cycle through mcast_dn->up twice as well and the mcast_dn->up counter shows 2.
Verifying Traffic Statistics on the Newly Migrated Cisco CRS-3 Node
To ascertain that traffic is flowing on the CRS-3 node please run the following command on both the
planes that have been migrated. Run it a few times to ensure that the counters are incrementing. The lost
or error counters should not be incrementing.
The same command should also be applied on the legacy nodes (not yet migrated) to make sure there is
no traffic lost or traffi c with errored cells.

Chapter 1 Migrating to a Cisco CRS-3 Carrier Routing System
How to Migrate to a Cisco CRS-3 Carrier Routing System (4-Slot)
To migrate from a 4-slot Cisco CRS-1 Carrier Routing System to a 4-slot Cisco CRS-3 Carrier Routing
System, you must complete the following tasks:
• Administratively Disabling the Fabric Plane, page 1-5
• Disabling Power to the CRS-1 Fabric Card, page 1-7.
• Physically Removing the CRS-1 Fabric Card, p age 1-9
• Installing a CRS-3 Fabric Card, page 1-11.
• Verifying the Installation of a CRS-3 Fabric Card, page 1-15
The migration procedure may be done on one Fabric Card at-a-time.
In a CRS-1 system with redundant fabric (i.e. 8 planes), migration to CRS-3 fabric is hitless - zero drop
in traffic as we migrate plane by plane from a CRS-1 to CRS-3 .
The detailed migration procedure is detailed in the sections below, for the 4-slot Cisco CRS-3 Carrier
Routing System.

Step 9Slide the card halfway into the slot. Avoid touching the card circuitry and any connectors.
Step 10Pivot both card ejector levers so the openi ngs o n the card ejector cams at the top and bottom of the card
pass over the tabs on each side of the card cage slot.
CautionVerify that the openings on the card ejector cams pass over the tabs; otherwise, one or both
ejector levers might bind when you attempt to close the ejector levers, thereby damaging or
breaking one or both ejector levers.
Step 11Continue sliding the card into the card cage slot until the openings on the card ejector cams engage the
tabs on each side of the card cage slot.
NoteThe CRS-3 fabric card has guide pins that make initial contact with the backplane connector as
you slide the card into its slot. After the guide pins make contact, continue pushing on the card
carrier until the card ejector levers begin pivoting forward, toward the handle in the card carrier.
Step 12T o seat the card in the backplane connector, grasp both card ejector levers and piv ot them inward to wa rd
the handle in the card carrier until they are flush against the front edge of the card carrier.

Troubleshooting the CRS-3 fabric card
If the installed or replaced CRS-3 fabric card fails to operate or power up on installation:
• Make sure that the card is seated firmly in the Cisco CRS Fabric Card Chassis slot. One easy way
to verify physical installation is to see whether the front faceplate of the CRS-3 fabric card is even
with the fronts of the other cards installed in the card cage.
• Check whether the ejector levers are latched and that the captive screws are fastened properly . If you
are uncertain, unlatch the levers, loosen the screws, and attempt to reseat the CRS-3 fabric card.
• Examine the Cisco CRS Fabric Card Chassis alarm module to see if there are any active alarm
conditions. (See the section on the alarm module in Cisco CRS Carrier Routing System 4-Slot Line
Card Chassis System Description.)
• Examine the Cisco CRS Fabric Card Chassis power shelves to see whether the chassis, as a whole,
is receiving power.
Use the Status LEDs, located on the CRS-3 fabric card faceplate, to verify the correct installation of the
CRS-3 fabric card:
• When the CRS-3 fabric card is properly installed, the Status LED turns green. If this LED is off,
verify that the CRS-3 fabric card is installed correctly.

Administratively Enabling the Fabric Plane
This section describes the process for administratively enabling each new Cisco CRS-3 fabric plane.
Once enabled, the fabric plane status would be “Up”.
Chapter 1 Migrating to a Cisco CRS-3 Carrier Routing System
Verify that each of the eight fabric planes is enabled by executing the show controllers fabric plane all
command:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin)#show controllers fabric plane all
Plane Admin Oper up->dn up->mcast
Id State State counter counter

2 UP UP 0 0
3 UP UP 0 0
4 UP UP 0 0
5 UP UP 0 0
6 UP UP 0 0
7 UP UP 0 0
Each plane transitions from UP -> MCAST_DOWN -> DOWN -> MCAST_DOWN -> UP. Thus each
plane will cycle through up->dn twice. This is why the up->dn counter shows 2. Similarly each plane
will cycle through mcast_dn->up twice as well and the mcast_dn->up counter shows 2.
Verifying Traffic Statistics on the Newly Migrated Cisco CRS-3 Node
To ascertain that traffic is flowing on the CRS-3 node please run the following command on both the
planes that have been migrated. Run it a few times to ensure that the co unters are incrementing. The lost
or error counters should not be incrementing.
The same command should also be appl ied on the legacy nodes (not yet migrated) to make sure there is
no traffic lost or traffi c with errored cells.
