DETAILED STEPS

 

Command or Action

Purpose

Step 1

 

 

Apply power to the second LCC.

Starts up the LCC.

 

 

Allow the chassis to fully boot.

 

 

Verify that “IOS XR RUN” appears on the RP

 

 

faceplates.

 

 

In each FCC, verify that the indicator LED on the OIM

 

 

LED panel is green for each fabric cable connected to

 

 

the non-DSC LCC.

 

 

The LCC loads any necessary software and

 

 

configurations from the DSC, including the rack

 

 

number and appropriate Cisco IOS XR software

 

 

packages.

 

 

Do not proceed until both RPs in the LCC display

 

 

“IOS XR RUN.” This indicates that the RP has

 

 

successfully loaded the Cisco IOS XR software.

Step 2

 

 

show controllers fabric rack all detail

Displays the status of all racks in the system.

 

 

In a properly operating system, the rack status for all

 

Example:

racks should be Normal, and the server status should be

 

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin)# show controllers

Present.

 

fabric rack all detail

 

Step 3

 

 

show controllers fabric plane all detail

Displays the status of all racks and additional information

 

 

for racks in install mode.

 

Example:

Wait for the status in the Admin State and Oper State

 

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin)# show controllers

columns to change to UP for all planes.

 

fabric plane all detail

 

Step 4

 

 

show controllers fabric connectivity all detail

Displays the LCC cards that can communicate with all eight

 

 

fabric planes.

 

Example:

The expected output should contain a series of ‘1’s for

 

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin)# show controllers

each of the fabric planes active in the system. If a fabric

 

fabric connectivity all detail

plane is administratively “shutdown” the output of the

 

 

command above remains the same. If the fabric card is

 

 

physically removed or powered down, the “1” changes

 

 

to “.”
