Usage Guidelines
To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
The configuration register setting is a 16-bit, user-configurable value that determines how the route processor (RP) functions during initialization. The configuration register can cause the RP to boot normally from the default configuration, or to enter ROMMON mode during a reload. Configuration register settings can also be used to perform tasks such as password recovery.
The config-register command is entered in administration EXEC mode, on the designated system controller (DSC) of the system. The DSC is the primary RP of the owner secure domain router (owner SDR). When setting the configuration register value for the config-register command, note the following conditions:
•If both the primary and standby DSC are up and running when the configuration register value is set, the configuration register value applies to both the primary and standby DSC.
•By contrast, if only the primary DSC is up and running when the configuration register value is set and the standby DSC is introduced into the router at a later time, the router does not attempt to synchronize the configuration register value for the standby RP to that of the active RP; in this situation, the configuration register setting applied to the standby DSC is determined by the configuration register value set in ROMMON mode.
•To set the configuration register value for all RPs in a multishelf system, enter the command config-register value location all.
Note To display the current configuration settings, use the command show variables boot.
Enter the command config-register value to set the configuration register setting for the DSC (DSDRSC of the owner SDR).
The most commonly used configuration register settings are described in Table 2.
Table 2 Common Configuration Register Settings
|
|
0x0 |
RP enters ROMMON mode (rommon B1> ) on the next system boot. |
0x2 |
RP loads the Cisco IOS XR software and default configuration on the next system boot. After logging in, the user can access EXEC mode. |
0x102 |
Router loads the Cisco IOS XR software with the console break key disabled on the next system boot. |
0x40 |
Router enters the password recovery mode on the next system boot. |
Examples
The following example shows how to set the configuration register on the DSC to 0x2. Setting the configuration registration to 0x2 causes the router to boot the Cisco IOS XR software and enter EXEC mode during a router reload.
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin)# config-register 0x2
Successfully set config-register to 0x2 on node 0/RP0/CPU0
Successfully set config-register to 0x2 on node 0/RP1/CPU0

mirror
To configure disk mirroring on a node, use the mirror command in global configuration mode. To disable disk mirroring, use the no form of this command.
mirror location [preconfigure] node-id primary-device:secondary-device:
no mirror location node-id
Syntax Description
primary-device: |
Specifies the primary boot device used to store installation packages and configuration files. •On the Cisco XR 12000 Series Router, the supported devices are disk0:, disk1:, and compactflash: (if installed). •On the Cisco CRS-1, the supported devices are disk0: and disk1: (if installed). |
secondary-device: |
Storage device on the same RP as the primary-device, to where critical data is replicated. •Supported devices are the same as for primary-device:, but secondary-device: must be different than the primary-device:. |
preconfigure |
Enables you to specify a node that is not yet installed. |

Release 3.8.0 |
No modification. |
Usage Guidelines
To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
The mirror command replicates all critical data contained in the primary partition of the primary boot device, onto a second storage device on the same RP. Therefore, if the primary boot device fails, applications continue to be serviced transparently by the secondary device, without having to switch control to a standby RP.
Before the mirror command can be used, the secondary storage device must be partitioned using the format command. If the primary boot device is not partitioned, once mirroring is enabled and all data on the primary boot device is replicated to the secondary device, the primary boot device is partitioned automatically. This guarantees that only critical data on the primary boot device is mirrored to the secondary device. Noncritical data, such as logging data, should not be mirrored and should, therefore, be saved to the secondary partition on the storage device.
To temporarily suspend disk mirroring without changing the configuration, use the mirror pause command in EXEC mode.
Examples
The following example shows how to configure disk mirroring from the primary boot device (disk0:) to the secondary storage device (disk1:):
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# mirror location 0/rp0/cpu0 disk0: disk1:

The mirror pause command temporarily pauses the mirroring of the primary boot device. This command is primarily useful during an installation operation to prevent significant performance degradation on single CPU boards. The mirror pause command does not change the configured state of mirroring, but rather causes the mirroring to be suspended until the mirror resume command is used.
The mirror pause command has no affect if the mirror configuration command is not enabled.
Examples
The following example shows how to pause disk mirroring on the active RP:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# mirror pause

Use the reload command to cause the DSDRSC to reload the Cisco IOS XR software according to the configuration register setting (for example, 0x0 to enter ROMMON mode and 0x2 to reload the RP to EXEC mode). If a standby DSDRSC is in the ready redundancy state, the reload command also causes the router to fail over to the standby DSDRSC. Use the show redundancy command in EXEC mode to display the status of the standby RP.
When the reload command is used and a failover occurs, the running (active) software configuration is automatically maintained during failover.
Caution
If a standby RP is not installed or is not in the ready state, then the router experiences a loss of service while the active RP is reloading the Cisco IOS XR software. To view the status of the standby RP, issue the
show redundancy command in EXEC mode.
If you use the reload command and there is no available standby node, you are prompted to continue with the reload:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# reload
Standby card not present or not Ready for failover. Proceed?[confirm]
Examples
The following example shows how to reload the active RP. If a standby RP is in the ready state, then the router fails over to the standby RP. If the standby RP is not installed or is not in the ready state, then the router enters ROMMON mode and routing operations stop.
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# reload

Note Before reloading nodes on a Cisco CRS-1 router, we recommend using the cfs check command to check the sanity of the configuration file system and attempt to recover from internal inconsistencies.
Enter the cfs check command on each secure domain router (SDR) that has nodes impacted by the reload. If you enter the reload location all command, run the cfs check command on every SDR in the system before reloading the router.
•To reload all the nodes in all chassis in a multishelf system, use the reload location all command.
•To reload all the nodes in a specific chassis, use the reload rack rack-number command. This command cannot be used to reload the DSC line card chassis (rack 0).
•To reload a specific node on the router, specify the reload command with the location node-id keyword and argument. The node-id is expressed as rack/slot/module.
•To ensure a graceful reload and ensure the sanity of the configuration file system, enter the cfs check command on each SDR that has nodes impacted by the reload.
Examples
The following example shows how to reload all the nodes on the router:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin)# reload location all
Graceful reload of all nodes not supported
Operation may result in file corruptions or loss of config. Proceed [Y/N]? Y
Note To ensure the sanity of the configuration file system, enter the cfs check command on each SDR impacted by the reload operation. If you enter the reload location all command, run the cfs check command on every SDR in the system before reloading the router.
The following example shows how to reload all the nodes in a single chassis:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin)# reload rack 1
Graceful reload of a rack in admin mode is not supported
Operation may result in file corruption or loss of config. Proceed? [confirm]
You cannot reload the chassis containing the DSC. The following example shows the message displayed if an attempt is made to reload rack 0 (line card chassis 0) in a multishelf system:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin)# reload rack 0
Reload of rack 0 is not supported in 3.6 release.

|
Mirroring Enabled |
Indicates whether mirroring is enabled or disabled. |
Configured Primary |
If mirroring is enabled, the configured primary disk for mirroring. |
Configured Secondary |
If mirroring is enabled, the configured secondary disk for mirroring. |
Current Mirroring State |
Current status of mirroring. Possible values are as follows: Syncing files—Files are being synchronized between the primary and secondary disks. Not Configured—Mirroring is not configured. Mirroring Paused—In this state no mirroring is being done to the secondary device and the disk redundancy has been removed. The values of the BOOT_DEV_SEQ_OPER and MIRROR_ENABLE variables reflect this. Redundant—The primary and secondary disks are totally in synchronization. Any read or write failure on the primary device results in disk redundancy failover such that all operations are performed on the secondary device. |
Current Physical Primary |
Current primary disk. |
Current Physical Secondary |
Current secondary disk. |
Mirroring Logical Device |
Device name used by the mirroring process to intercept all application requests to that named device before passing them through to one of the mirrored physical devices. |
Physical Device |
Physical disk in router. |
State |
Status of the disk. Possible values are as follows: Available—Disk exists in router and is available. Not present—Disk does not exist in router. "a" partitions of disks are only available after the disk has been formatted with the partition keyword. |
Flags |
Enabled—Disk mirroring has been enabled on this device and the device is part of the mirroring process. Repaired—During the boot, some minor inconsistencies were discovered on the disk and were repaired to make the file system consistent. Formatted—Disk was formatted before mirroring was enabled. |
BOOT_DEV_SEQ_CONF= |
ROM Monitor environmental variable for the boot disk sequence. This variable is set when mirroring is enabled through the mirror configuration command. The devices in this ROMMON variable declare the primary and the secondary devices of the mirroring process. The first device is the primary device and the second device is the secondary device in the mirroring process. Note This variable is also shared by the disk backup feature. This variable can also be set or unset using the system boot-sequence command of the disk backup feature. But the use of system boot-sequence and system backup commands is blocked, if mirroring is enabled. |
BOOT_DEV_SEQ_OPER= |
ROM Monitor environmental variable that reflects the state of the disk redundancy status. When mirroring is enabled and the state is redundant, this variable is set to the primary device followed by the secondary device. When mirroring is not in the redundancy state, then this variable is updated to contain only the primary device. |
MIRROR_ENABLE |
ROM Monitor environmental variable whose value reflects the mirroring status. If it is set to Y, then mirroring is enabled. If it is set to P, then mirroring is paused. If empty, mirroring is not enabled. |

Syntax Description
target-device |
(Optional) Specifies the storage device used for the system backup. If a target device is not specified, then the secondary device defined with the system boot-sequence command is used. If a target device is not specified with either command, then the system backup command returns an error. •The target device cannot be the current boot device. •The target device must be large enough to store the current software set and configuration. •On the Cisco XR 12000 Series Router, the supported storage devices are disk0:, disk1:, and compactflash: (if installed). •On the Cisco CRS-1, the supported storage devices are disk0: and disk1: (if installed). |
format |
(Optional) Formats a target disk that already contains a system backup. By default, the system backup command formats the target disk if that target disk does not contain a previous system backup. If the target disk already contains a backup, then the disk is not formatted again. The format keyword forces a format of the target device even if it contains a previous system backup. |
location node-id |
(Optional) Specifies an alternative node location for the backup target disk, such as the standby DSDRSC. By default, the backup files are copied to the target device in the current DSDRSC. Use the location node-id keyword and argument to specify an alternative node for the backup files, such as the standby DSDRSC. The node-id argument is expressed in rack/slot/module notation. |
location all |
(Optional) Backs up the software and configuration files to all RPs in the system or SDR. Each RP must contain a disk in the specified target device location, such as disk1. |
asynchronous |
(Optional) Performs the command in asynchronous mode. In asynchronous mode, the command runs in the background, and the EXEC prompt is returned as soon as possible. |
synchronous |
(Optional) Performs the command in synchronous mode. This mode allows the installation process to finish before the prompt is returned. This is the default mode. |
Defaults
The operation is performed in synchronous mode.

For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
Target Device for the Backup
Use the system backup command with the target-device argument to specify the local storage device for backup software and configuration files. The target-device argument is optional and applies only to the current backup operation.
•If a target storage device is not specified, then the files are backed up to the secondary storage device defined with the system boot-sequence command.
•If a target device is not specified with either the system backup command or the system boot-sequence command, then the backup operation is not allowed.
The target-device can be any local storage device except the current boot device, and must be large enough to store the current software set and configuration. On the Cisco XR 12000 Series Router, the supported storage devices are disk0:, disk1:, and compactflash: (if installed). On the Cisco CRS-1 router, the supported storage devices are disk0: and disk1: (if installed).
Location Node of the Target Device
By default, the backup is created on the specified target device of the active DSDRSC where the command is executed.
•To specify an alternate node for the system backup, such as the standby DSDRSC, use the system backup command with the location node-id keyword and argument.
•To perform the backup on all router processors (RPs) installed in a specified secure domain router (SDR), use the system backup command with the location all keywords in EXEC mode.
•To perform the backup on all RPs in all SDRs installed in the system, use the system backup command with the location all keywords in administration EXEC mode.
Note Each RP or distributed route processor (DRP) impacted by the system backup command must contain the specified target device. For example, if the system backup command is executed for disk1 on all RPs in the system, then a flash disk must be installed in disk1 of each RP.
Command Modes
•Use the system backup command in administration EXEC mode to back up the administration plane configuration, including software and configurations for all SDRs in the system.
•Use the system backup command in the EXEC mode of an SDR to back up the software and configurations for a specific SDR.
Commit and Installation Operations Not Allowed During Backup
•Configuration changes are not allowed during the backup process. Any attempts to commit configuration changes are rejected until the backup operation is complete.
•The backup process cannot be performed during an installation operation. If an installation operation is performed while a backup is in process, the backup operation terminates.
Displaying the Current Backup Information
Enter the show system backup command to display information about the current backup files. If no backup exists, an error message is displayed.
Examples
The following example shows how to back up the software and configuration files for a Cisco XR 12000 Series Router.
•The command is run in administration EXEC mode, which backs up both the administration and SDR configurations.
•The target device is defined as disk1.
•Because this is the first backup on the device, the disk is formatted.
