Chapter 8 Replacing Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers Field-Replaceable Units

Removing and Replacing the Cisco ASR 1000 Series RP1 Internal Hard Drive

Before you begin, read the following important notices:

The reason you would be removing an internal hard drive is that it is failing or failed; so any data recovery may be lost.

If the drive is functioning, you can back it up to a drive plugged into a USB port using the archive tar command. At the router# prompt, type:

archive tar / create tarfile_dir_name file(s)_to_be_tarred

Example:

archive tar usb0: test_files harddisk: *

This would theoretically copy the whole

harddisk to the device on usb0: under a tar file named test_files

The new internal hard drive will be automatically partitioned and formatted when the system boots up, if it is not correct, which means the drive was not previously formatted or was formatted in a different manner than the Cisco ASR1000 requirements.

Removing the Cisco ASR 1000 Series RP1 and Internal Hard Drive from the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router

To remove the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Route Processor board from the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router, follow this procedure:

Step 1 Slip on the ESD-preventative wrist strap that was included in the accessory kit. Loosen the screw fasteners on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series RP1 module.

Step 2 Perform an OIR shutdown on the Cisco ASR1000-RP1. At the router# prompt, type: hw-module slot R (0 or 1) stop.
