Introduction
This document describes how to upgrade the Network Virtualization (nV) Satellites with minimal downtime when you upgrade a Cisco Aggregation Services Router 9000 Series (ASR9K) that has satellites attached. Special consideration is needed in order to reduce any possible outages due to the host or satellite device upgrade.
Auto-Upgrade
In Versions 5.3.2, 6.0.0, and later, the auto-upgrade feature is supported. In earlier versions, there were three image transfer scenarios:
- Image incompatible – This was an automatic force upgrade from the host to the satellite.
- Image not latest – This log displayed information about a version mismatch, but it was left to the user to transfer/activate.
- Image latest – This allowed the user the choice to force upgrade/downgrade.
With the auto-upgrade feature, you are able to automate the second option, which causes this to act just like the first option and pushes the latest image when the satellite reconnects. The best analogy for the satellite auto-upgrade feature is that of a Field Programmable Device (FPD) auto-upgrade.
The command that is used in order to enable the auto-upgrade feature is upgrade on-connect, which is configured under the nv satellite [satellite ID] config sub-mode:
nv
satellite 100
type asr901
upgrade on-connect

Single-Homed
In the single-homed scenario, a satellite is only connected to a single ASR9K, which means that two reloads are seen on the satellite. The first satellite reload comes from the host that reloads during a Cisco IOS® XR upgrade, and the second reload comes from the satellite Cisco IOS software that is upgraded.
For this type of upgrade, complete the steps in the Satellite Upgrade section.
Dual-Homed
If you upgrade a satellite that is connected to two ASR9K hosts, it overcomes some of the challenges posed by a single-homed satellite, but special consideration is needed in order to minimize any traffic outage.
Based on the assumption that both ASR9K hosts are to be updated first and the satellite last, or even at a later time, take these steps in order to minimize any outage:
- Check which host each satellite sees as active.
- Verify satellite(s) control plane to host 2.
- Switch over satellite(s) to host 2.
- Verify control and data plane.
- Upgrade host 1's XR software.
- Verify upgrade of host 1.
- Verify satellite(s) control plane to host 1.
- Switch over all satellite(s) to host 1.
- Verify control and data plane for satellite(s) now on host 1.
- Upgrade host 2's XR software.
- Verify control plane to host 2
- Switch over the satellite(s) as necessary.
- Upgrade satellite(s) from either host.
- Verify satellite upgrade(s).
- Verify control and data plane for satellite(s).
Here are the details for these steps with the repetitive ones omitted.
Connectivity Checks
Verify Satellite Status
This example has a three satellite ring (100, 101, 102) with satellites 100 and 102 active to host 1 (9001-G) and satellite 101 active to host 2 (9001-H).

If a more condensed output is desired, then the show nv satellite status brief command can be used on both hosts. The connected state indicates that the control channel is operational, while Act and Stby indicates the status of the data plane for each satellite per host.
Host Priority Change
Change Host-priority
The easiest way to failover a satellite to the other ASR9K host is to change the host-priority in the configuration. In this example, the host-priority is set to the highest value (lowest priority) so that all satellites in the ring switch over to host 2.

Host Upgrade
- After you verify which host sees all satellites as active and which host sees all satellites as standby, follow the normal upgrade procedures as documented on Cisco Connection Online (CCO), or as per any tested Method of Procedure (MOP), on the host where all satellites are standby.
- After the first host is upgraded and all install post-checks confirmed, follow the Connectivity Checks section in order to verify satellite connectivity to both hosts. Once connectivity is verified, follow the Host Priority Change Section in order to switch satellites over to the upgraded host by lowering the priority.
- Once all satellites are connected as standby to host 2, upgrade this host and perform all install verification steps as per the CCO upgrade guide or MOP and all satellite checks as per Connectivity Checks.
- Finally, proceed to Satellite Upgrade.
Satellite Upgrade
New satellite (9000v and 901) images are contained in the asr9k-9000v-nV-px-<release>and asr9k-901-nV-px-<release> packages respectfully. Once these packages are activated on the host, a satellite might be upgraded.
In order to download and activate the software image on a satellite, use the install nv satellite command in the EXEC mode.
install nv satellite { satellite id | all } { transfer | activate }
Syntax Description
satellite id |
Specifies the unique identifier of the satellite on which the image must be transferred. |
all |
Performs the operation on all currently active satellites that are not already at the target version. |
transfer |
Downloads the image from the host to the satellite device. |
activate |
Performs the install operation on the satellite. |
Verify a Satellite Upgrade
After you issue the install nv satellite command and the satellite reloads, the output of show nv satellite status should display that the ROMMON, Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), and Cisco IOS revisions are the latest. If any of these do not say latest, then additional troubleshooting is needed in order to determine why the image was not upgraded.

Tips and Tricks
Upgrade Multiple Satellites
Multiple satellites can be chosen for the install nv satellite command if you use a range, for example 100-110, or by a comma, for example 100,105,115.
Upgrade a Ring of Satellites
While a satellite in a ring can quickly (typically less than one second) switch over to the backup host, it is a best practice to avoid this if possible and use the host-priority function for a user-invoked switchover instead of an event-triggered switchover.
Considering this, if you upgrade a satellite (SAT101 in this example) in a ring and another satellite's active data path goes through this satellite (SAT102), then there will be a switchover of the active data path for SAT102 when SAT101 reboots to use the new image and a second switchover for SAT102 after SAT101 comes back online.
In order to illustrate this, in these examples this topology is used with all satellites active to 9001H and standby to 9001G.
9001G --- SAT100 --- SAT101 --- SAT102 --- 9001H
Example: Wrong Way to Upgrade
Q: What happens when SAT101 is upgraded from 9001H?
A: When satellite 101 reloads, satellite 100 loses its control link to 9001H and switches over to 9001G. Satellite 102 loses its connection to 9001G but the data plane does not switch over. Once satellite 101 comes back up and the control channel between 9001H and satellite 100 is re-established, this satellite switches over again and begins to use 9001H as its primary data plane path again.
This verifies the data plane status for each satellite, with 9001G as standby and 9001H as active.

When satellite 101 reloads to use its new image the following happens as seen in the below output:
- Satellite 100 loses its control and data plane connections to 9001H
- Satellite 100 will begin to use 9001G for its active data path
- Satellite 102 loses its control connection to 9001G

Because satellite 101 is activated, this happens when it reloads:
- SAT 100 being standby to 9001H loses its standby control plane connection to 9001G.
- SAT 101 loses its data plane and control plane to both hostss
- SAT 102 being standby to 9001G loses its standby control plane connection to 9001G.
- The data planes on SAT 100 and 102 have no impact and no switchover.

Known Issues
Image Download Fails
Saw the following message which indicates something blocking the image transfer
SAT9K_IMG_DOWNLOADER-3-TFTP_READ_FAIL: FTP download failure for 4502A1__.FPG with
error code:-3
Suggestion: Check the Management Plane Protection (MPP) configuration in order to ensure that TFTP is set to allowed for the Inter-Chassis Link (ICL) port.
Image Download Incorrectly Says Completed
In this scenario, the Interface Control Plane Extender (ICPE) reports that the install completes, but when you check the satellite, it does not run the latest version.

Remote version: Compatible (not latest version)
ROMMON: 125.0 (Latest)
FPGA: 1.13 (Latest)
IOS: 210.0 (Available: 292.0)
What to examine:
- MPP configuration (see previous section).
- If the progress keyword is used in the install CLI, do NOT use the progress keyword prior to Version 5.1.2 or 5.2.0.
- Ensure that TFTP homedir is NOT set (for example, tftp vrf default ipv4 server homedir disk0:).
- If the satellite is an ASR901, the installation might fail due to space limitations. The recommendation is to delete non-nV images from the 901 flash and execute sqeeze flash: in order to free space.
5.1.1 Dual-Home Issue
There is a known issue when you upgrade from Version 5.1.1 to Version 5.1.2 or when you downgrade that might cause the upgrade to fail, which is documented in Cisco bug ID CSCuo41004.
<B>Symptom:</B>
During an upgrade from 5.1.1 or downgrade to 5.1.1 scenario, both hosts of a dual
head satellite configuration become the standby host for the satellite. This
stops traffic.
<B>Conditions:</B>
A dual head topology for nV ICPE configuration and one of the hosts being 5.1.1, with
the other being a later version.
<B>Workaround:</B>
Ensure that the secondary host is the host that is running 5.1.1. So during an upgrade
from 5.1.1, then upgrade the primary host first; during a downgrade to 5.1.1, then
downgrade the secondary host first.
The primary host can be identified using the <cmdBold>show nv satellite protocol
redundacy<noCmdBold> command.
An alternative option (if only a few satellites have been configured) is to explicitly
configure host priorities for the 2 hosts.
<B>Further Problem Description:</B>
The dual system will recover when both systems have the same version.
If testing between versions is required, then the user must explicitly configure host
priorities.
