Notes on Cisco IOS XR Packages

Package management includes the add, activate, deactivate, commit, and rollback operations on
Cisco IOS XR devices. Before you perform any of these operations, read the following:
• When doing a version upgrade (which upgrades the core package and involves a router reload) on a
Cisco IOS XR device, all of the packages on the router should be upgraded at the same time, as part
of the same job. For example, if the c12k-mini, c12k-mgbl, c12k-mpls, c12k-k9 sec, and c12k-mcast
packages are on the router at version 3.4.1, when upgrading t o version 3.5.0, all of the packages must
be upgraded at the same time to version 3.5.0.
Note An upgrade pie is required only when you upgrade Cisco IOS XR devices fr om version 3 .x t o
4.x. You must deactivate and remove the upgrade pie, if you wish to perform any install
operations, including the install commit operation on the devices upgraded from 3.x to 4.x.
