Running the Cisco cBR Series Routers Using Individual and Optional SubPackages: An Overview

The Cisco cBR Series Converged Broadband Router can be configured to run using individual subpackages and optional subpackages.

When the router is configured to run using individual and optional subpackages:

  • Each individual subpackage within a consolidated package is extracted onto the router as its own file.

  • Additionally, any optional subpackages must be separately downloaded and stored in the same directory with the provisioning file and the other individual subpackages that have been extracted.

  • The router then runs by accessing each file as needed for operational purposes. All individual and optional subpackage files must be stored in the same directory on the router for the router to run properly using individual subpackages.

When the router runs using the individual and optional subpackages, the router needs to be configured to boot using the provisioning file that was included in the consolidated package with the individual subpackage files. This provisioning file must also be in the same directory as the individual and optional subpackage files. The router boots faster when configured to run using individual and optional subpackages than it does when configured to run using a consolidated package.

A Cisco cBR Series Router cannot be configured to run individual and optional subpackages stored on a TFTP or any other network server. To use this method of running the router, copy the individual and optional subpackages along with the provisioning file onto the bootflash: file system.

Running the Cisco cBR Series Routers Using a Consolidated Package: An Overview

The Cisco cBR Series Converged Broadband Router can also be configured to run using a consolidated package.


Note

Booting the router from a consolidated package is not supported for installation of optional subpackages.

When the router is configured to run using a consolidated package, the entire consolidated package file is copied onto the router or accessed by the router via TFTP or another network transport method. The router runs using the consolidated package file.

A router configured to run using a consolidated package is booted by booting the consolidated package file. Because this file is large, the boot process for routers running using the consolidated package is slower than the boot process for routers running individual subpackages.

A router configured to run using a consolidated package does have some advantages over a router configured to run individual subpackages. First, a consolidated package can be booted and utilized using TFTP or another network transport method. Secondly, configuring the router to use the one consolidated package file is easier than managing several individual subpackage files. Running the router using a consolidated package may be the right method of running the router in certain networking environments.

The consolidated package should be stored on bootflash:, usb[0-1]:, or a remote file system when this method is used to run the router.

Running the Cisco cBR Series Routers: A Summary

The advantages of running your router using individual subpackages include:

  • The router boots fastest when booted using the individual subpackage boot approach.

  • Individual subpackages can be upgraded instead of the complete consolidated image.

The advantages of running your router using a consolidated package include:

  • Simplified installation—Only one software file needs to be managed instead of several separate images.

  • Storage—A consolidated package, unlike individual subpackages, can be used to run the router while being stored in bootflash:, on a USB Flash disk, or on a network server. A consolidated package can be booted and utilized using TFTP or another network transport method, while the individual subpackage method requires the individual subpackage files to be copied into the bootflash: file directory on the router.

Approach

Advantages

Disadvantages

Individual and optional subpackages

Note   

This method is required if you need to install any optional subpackages for your system.

Faster boot time.

  • Multiple software subpackages more difficult to manage.

  • Cannot be booted from TFTP or any other network server. If you are going to use the individual subpackage boot method, each individual subpackage file must be placed in the bootflash: directory.

  • Individual and optional subpackage files and the provisioning file must be stored in bootflash:.

Consolidated Package

  • Easier management. Only have to manage one file instead of many files.

  • A consolidated package file can be stored in bootflash:, on any TFTP or other network server.

Slower boot times and lessened maximum system scalability because the larger image must be processed at all times.

Software File Management Using Command Sets

Software files can be managed on the Cisco cBR Series Converged Broadband Router using the following distinct command sets.

The request platform Command Set

The request platform software package command is part of the larger request platform command set being introduced on the Cisco cBR Series Converged Broadband Router.

The request platform software package command, which can be used to upgrade individual subpackages and a complete consolidated package, is used to upgrade software on the Cisco cBR Series Converged Broadband Router. Notably, the request platform software package command is the recommended way of performing an individual subpackage upgrade, and also provides the only method of no-downtime upgrades of individual subpackages on the router when the router is running individual subpackages.

The request platform software package command requires that the destination device or process be specified in the command line, so the commands can be used to upgrade software on both an active or a standby processor.

Command Syntax

request platform software package install rp rp-slot-number file file-URL

where

  • rp-slot-number is the number of the RP slot and

  • file-URL is the path to the file being used to upgrade the Router.

The copy Command

The copy command can be used to move consolidated packages and individual subpackages onto the router, though using this command to move individual subpackage files from one storage area to another is often inefficient (in these scenarios, it is almost always preferable to move the consolidated package, then extract the subpackages, or to extract the subpackages without moving the consolidated package).

To upgrade a consolidated package on the Cisco cBR Series Converged Broadband Router, copy the consolidated package onto a file system, usually bootflash: , using the copy command as you would on most other Cisco routers. After making this copy, configure the router to boot using the consolidated package file.

To upgrade the router and reboot using individual subpackages, copy the consolidated package onto the router using the copy command, enter the request platform software package expand command to extract the individual subpackages, and configure the router to boot using subpackages. Other methods, such as copying each individual subpackage in the same consolidated package from a directory or using the request platform software package command to extract the subpackages onto a router directory are also usable, though copying individual subpackages is often inefficient.

Managing and Configuring the Router to Run Using Consolidated Packages and Individual SubPackages

This section describes methods that are used to manage and configure the packages, sub-packages and patches on the router.

Cable Line Card Process Restart

The last step, in many of the methods used to upgrade and manage the packages and sub-packages, is to reload the router or the component for which the software is being configured or upgraded. Reloading the router or the components involves the following disadvantages:

  • service disruption (limited)

  • loss of modem configuration data

  • time consumption in rebooting the line cards and other components

The N+1 line card high availability (LCHA) system reboots the active and the standby line cards whenever a package is upgraded on a line card. This occurs for sub-package upgrade for Field Replaceable Units (FRUs) on the line card as well. Every time an upgrade is done to a package or sub-package, the line card must be rebooted. The time taken for the package upgrade on N number of active line cards, the total number of reboots would be 2xN. This is time-consuming and may affect services on the rebooting line cards.

To avoid the disadvantages of reloading the router and the line cards, use the Cable Line Card Process Restart features when you upgrade packages on the RF line cards.


Note
Do not use the process restart features without upgrading or installing packages on the RF line cards.

Primarily there are two features that allow you to restart Cable Line Card processes:

  • Cable Line Card Control Plane Process Restart

  • Cable Line Card Upstream Scheduler Process Restart

Cable Line Card Control Plane Process Restart

The Cable Line Card Control Plane Process Restart feature provides the following advantages:

  • Simplified package upgrade without LCHA based reboot of active and standby line cards.

  • Restart of specific processes without service disruption.

  • All the modem configuration data is recovered after the IOSd process restarts.

  • Changes in the modem configuration data during the IOSd process restart is reconciled after the IOSd process is restarted.

  • The secondary line card shutdown and un-shutdown processes occur automatically.

Restrictions:

  • To upgrade a line card IOS using the Cable Line Card Control Plane Process Restart feature, the sub-package must have the patches for cbrsup-clcios and cbrsup-clciosdb.

  • IOSd and us-scheduler restart are supported. You can restart IOSd only, which requires IOSd/IOSdb packages or restart the us-scheduler only, which requires clc-docsis package. You can also restart both using a single command, where the us-scheduler is restarted first and then the IOSd is restarted. In this case, IOSd/IOSdb and clc-docsis packages are required.

Other restrictions include the following:

  • The IOSd process can be restarted only on the primary active RF line cards.

  • Any secondary RF line card must be shut down before restarting the IOSd process.

  • The IOSd process restart does not work when double failures (i.e. termination of IOSd and one or more process at the same time) occur. The double failures result in line card reload.

  • The restart of the next IOSd (i.e. IOSd process on the next RF line card) does not occur until the current IOSd process recovers fully.

The Cable Line Card Control Plane Process Restart feature provides the following restart options:

  • Restart a specific slot using the request platform software process restart command with the slot slot number option.

  • Restart all the line cards without specifying a specific slot, using the request platform software process restart command without the slot slot number option.

  • Interval based restart option of all line card using the request platform software process restart command with the interval secs option.

Important points to remember:

  • Before using the Cable Line Card Control Plane Process Restart feature, shut down the secondary line card, using the hw-module slot shutdown command.

  • When the Cable Line Card Control Plane Process Restart feature is started, the secondary line card shuts down automatically.

  • Before using the Cable Line Card Control Plane Process Restart feature, shut down the secondary line card, using the hw-module slot shutdown command.

  • When the Cable Line Card Control Plane Process Restart feature is started, the secondary line card shuts down automatically.

  • To prevent reloading the line card after sub-package upgrade, use the request platform software package install node file command with the noreload linecard option.

  • Verify the restart process using the show platform software ios slot slot number restart info command.

Restart on Crash

The cable line card control plane and upstream scheduler process restarts automatically after a crash. After restarting process, secondary line card is reset.

Restrictions:

  • Restart on crash supported only on primary active line cards

The table below lists the cable line card behaviors when crash happens under different rules.

Note

The restart retry limit feature is added to the Cable Line Card Process Restart, it is applicable only to restart on crash. Using this feature, the customer can set a restart retry time limit, if the process cannot restart successfully within this limit, the line card will reload. This feature can prevent the line card from continuous restart when restart failed.

Using the Cable Line Card Control Plane Process Restart Feature

To use the Cable Line Card Control Plane Process Restart Feature, install the RF line card sub-package upgrade using the command.

Procedure
    Step 1   Install the RF line card sub-package upgrade using the request platform software package install node file noreload linecard command. 
    Router#request platform software package install node file bootflash:sp/cbr_patch.9.0.tar noreload linecard
    Step 2   Use the request platform software process restart command to restart the RF line card IOSd process on all the cable line cards sequentially. 
    Router# request platform software process restart
    Step 3   Use the request platform software process restart slot slot# command to restart the RF line card IOSd process on a specific cable line card. 
    Router# request platform software process restart slot 7
    Configuring the Cable Line Card Control Plane Process Restart Retry Limit

    To configure the Cable Line Card Control Plane Process Restart Retry Limit, complete the following procedure: 

    enable
configure terminal
process-restart
lc-control-plane-timeout time
restart-retry retry-times
exit
    Examples for Cable Line Card Control Plane Process Restart Feature

    This section provides the sample outputs for the commands used in the Cable Line Card Control Plane Process.

    This example shows the output of the request platform software package install node file command with the noreload linecard option that installs the sub-package upgrade:

    Cable Line Card Upstream Scheduler Process Restart

    The Cable Line Card Upstream Scheduler Process Restart feature is used to restart the upstream scheduler process on the RF line cards.

    The Cable Line Card Upstream Scheduler Process Restart feature provides the following advantages:

    • Allows to restart line card US- Scheduler (CDMAN) process with minimum impact to upstream traffic and no impact to downstream traffic.

    • All modem configuration data recovered to the state before restart.

    • Changes in modem configuration data during restart are reconciled.

    • New modems coming online are blocked during restart.

    • The request platform software package restart command is used to upgrade the new DOCSIS sub-pkg patch without reloading the line card.

    • Effective with Cisco IOS-XE Release 3.18.0S, the card restarts automatically after a crash. For more information, see Restart on Crash section.

    Restrictions:

    The following restrictions apply to the :

    • The Upstream Scheduler process can be restarted only on the primary active RF line cards.

    • The Upstream Scheduler process restart does not work when double failures (i.e. termination of Upstream Scheduler and one or more process at the same time) occur. The double failures result in line card reload.

    • The restart of the next Upstream Scheduler (i.e. Upstream Scheduler process on the next RF line card) does not occur until the current Upstream Scheduler process recovers fully.

    Important points to remember:

    • With Cisco IOS-XE Release 3.17.0S, when the Cable Line Card Upstream Scheduler Process Restart feature is started, the secondary line card shuts down automatically.

    • To prevent reloading the line card after sub-package upgrade, use the request platform software package install node file command with the noreload linecard option.

    • Verify the restart process using the show platform software us-scheduler restart info command.

      Quick Start Software Upgrade

      The following instructions provide a quick start version of upgrading the software running the Cisco cBR Series Converged Broadband Router. These instructions assume you have access to the consolidated package and that the files will be stored in a bootflash: file system that is not storing any previously installed subpackages or consolidated packages and that has enough room for the file or files.

      Procedure
        Step 1   Copy the consolidated package into bootflash: using the copy URL-to-image bootflash: command.
        Step 2   If you want to run the router using individual subpackages, enter the request platform software package expand file bootflash:/sub_dir/base_image command. If you want to run the router using a consolidated package, skip this step.
        Step 3   Enter the dir bootflash: command to verify your consolidated package or your extracted subpackages are in the directory.
        Step 4   If you are trying to run individual subpackages, use the delete bootflash:base_image to delete the consolidated package. If you want to run the router using the consolidated package, skip this step.
        Step 5   Set up the boot parameters for your boot. Set the configuration register to 0x2 by entering the config-register 0x2102 global configuration command, and enter the boot system flash bootflash:base_image (if running using the consolidated package) or boot system flash bootflash:provisionging-file-name (if running using individual subpackages) global configuration command.
        Step 6   Enter copy running-config startup-config to save your configuration.
        Step 7   Enter the reload command to reload the router and finish the boot. The upgraded software should be running when the reload completes.

        Managing and Configuring a Consolidated Package Using the copy Command

        To upgrade a consolidated package on the Cisco cBR Series Routers using the copy command, copy the consolidated package into the bootflash: directory on the router using the copy command as you would on most other Cisco routers. After making this copy, configure the router to boot using the consolidated package file.

        In the following example, the consolidated package file is copied onto the bootflash: file system from TFTP. The config-register is then set to boot using boot system commands, and the boot system commands instruct the router to boot using the consolidated package stored in the bootflash: file system. The new configuration is then saved using the copy running-config startup-config command, and the system is then reloaded to complete the process.

        Managing and Configuring a Router to Run Using Individual SubPackages From a Consolidated Package

        To run the router using individual subpackages from a consolidated package, follow one of the following procedures:

        Extracting a Consolidated Package and Booting Using the Provisioning File

        T o extract a consolidated package and to boot using provisioning file, perform the following steps:

        Procedure
          Step 1   Perform one of the following tasks:
          1. Copy the consolidated package file (or, in cases where you have every individual subpackage and a provisioning file for the subpackages available, each individual subpackage and the provisioning file) onto the bootflash: file system using the copy command. Make sure to copy the consolidated package into the bootflash: file system and directory where you want to store the provisioning file and the individual image subpackages. Enter the request platform software package expand file bootflash:url-to-Cisco-IOS-XE-imagename command with no other option to extract the provisioning file and the individual subpackages out of the consolidated package file and into the current directory in bootflash:. We recommend that you extract the sub packages to an empty directory to simplify the management of these files.
          2. Copy the consolidated package file onto any file system on your router, then enter the request platform software package expand file file-system:url-to-Cisco-IOS-XE-imagename to bootflash: command to extract the provisioning file and the individual image subpackages onto the bootflash: file system.
          Note   

          After performing this step, do not move any of the files. The bootup process cannot function properly unless all of the subpackages and the provisioning file are located in the same directory. Also, do not rename the subpackage files. Only the provisioning file can be renamed, and the renaming of the provisioning file, if desired, should be done at this step before the router is rebooted.

          Step 2   Configure the router to boot using the provisioning file.

          The sequence below provides an example that would boot the router using the provisioning file named packages.conf that was stored with the other subpackages in the bootflash: file system: 

          Router(config)# no boot system
Router(config)# config-register 0x2102
Router(config)# boot system flash bootflash:packages.conf
Router(config)# exit
*May 11 01:31:04.815: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by con
Router# copy running-config startup-config
Building configuration... [OK]
Router# reload

          Extracting the SubPackages and the Provisioning File: Example 1

          The following example shows how to extract the individual subpackages and the provisioning file from a consolidated package that has already been placed in the directory where you want to store the individual subpackages and the provisioning file. We recommend that you extract the sub packages to an empty directory to simplify the management of these files.

          Output of the directory before and after the extraction is given to confirm the files were extracted.

          Extracting the SubPackages, Configuring the Router to Boot Using the Provisioning File, and Reloading the Router: Example 2

          In the following example, the provisioning file and the individual subpackages are extracted from a consolidated package. The router is then configured to boot using the provisioning file. This example also shows the config-register being set and the running configuration being saved because these tasks must be performed for the router to reload properly. The router is then reloaded to complete the process.

          Copying a Set of Individual SubPackage Files, and Booting Using a Provisioning File

          To copy a set of individual subpackage files and to boot using a provisioning file, perform the following steps:


          Note

          Although this upgrade method works, it is less efficient than other methods of upgrading the router's software.

          Procedure
            Step 1   Copy each individual subpackage and the provisioning file into the bootflash: directory using the copy command. Note that this method of running the router will only work if all the individual subpackages for a release and a provisioning file are downloaded onto the router and stored in the bootflash: directory. No other file directories should be used for booting the router using individual subpackages.

            The files can also be moved on the router physically using a USB Flash drive.

            Step 2   Configure the router to boot using the provisioning file.

            The sequence below provides an example that describes how to boot the router using the provisioning file named packages.conf that was stored with the other subpackages in the bootflash: file system. The router runs using individual subpackages once the reload is complete. 

            Router(config)# no boot system
Router(config)# config-register 0x2102
Router(config)# boot system flash bootflash:packages.conf
Router(config)# exit
*May 11 01:31:04.815: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by con
Router# write memory Building configuration... [OK]
Router# reload

            Installing an Optional SubPackage

            To run the router using an optional subpackage, perform the following steps for each Supervisor in the chassis:

            Procedure
              Step 1   Verify that the Supervisor is running in individual subpackage mode and was booted from a provisioning file.
              Step 2   Verify that the version of the optional subpackage that you want to install is the same version as the software running on the active Supervisor.
              Step 3   Download the optional subpackage that you want to install. Optional subpackages must be downloaded independently from consolidated packages for the Cisco cBR Series Routers.
              Step 4   On each Supervisor, copy the optional subpackage to the directory where any other individual subpackages and the provisioning file is located.
              Step 5   Run the request platform software package install rp file command, as shown in the following example.

              Note Do not use the optional slot or bay keywords for the initial installation.

              Upgrading Individual SubPackages

              Patch Installation

              Individual subpackages can be upgraded in subpackage mode. Patch releases consist of one or more subpackages. After a patch has been installed, a message is displayed indicating whether the entire chassis or only the line cards must be rebooted for the updates to take effect.

              Installing a Patch that Affects Both Line Card and Supervisor Card

              Procedure
                Step 1   The Cisco cBR router must be in subpackage mode.
                Step 2   Copy the patch file to the same location as the active subpackages on both the active and standby supervisor cards.
                Step 3   Install the patch using the request platform software package install rp slot file patch file command on the standby card.
                Step 4   Install the patch using therequest platform software package install rp slot file patch file command on the active card.
                Step 5   Reload the chassis.

                Installing a Patch that Affects Only Line Cards

                Procedure
                  Step 1   The Cisco cBR router must be in subpackage mode.
                  Step 2   Copy the patch file to the same location as the active subpackages on both the active and standby supervisor cards.
                  Step 3   Install the patch using the request platform software package install rp slot file patch file command on the standby card.
                  Step 4   Install the patch using therequest platform software package install rp slot file patch file command on the active card.
                  Step 5   Reload the line cards.

                  Installing a Patch that Affects Only Supervisor Cards

                  Procedure
                    Step 1   The Cisco cBR router must be in subpackage mode.
                    Step 2   Copy the patch file to the same location as the active subpackages on both the active and standby supervisor cards.
                    Step 3   Install the patch using the request platform software package install rp slot file patch file command on the standby card.
                    Step 4   Switch over to the standby card. This will make it the active card.
                    Step 5   Install the patch using the request platform software package install rp slot file patch file command on the standby card.

                    Upgrading a Line Card SubPackage

                    Use the request platform software package install node file filename command to upgrade a line card subpackage. 

                    Router# request platform software package install node file bootflash:/subpkg/cbr_patch.5.0.tar
