Chapter 9 Upgrading the Cisco IOS XE Software

Loading the New System Image

Step 4

boot system bootflash:system-image-filename.bin

 

 

 

 

 

Note

If the new system image is the first file or the only file displayed in the dir bootflash: command output

 

 

 

in Step 1, you do not need to perform this step.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Use this command to load the new system image after the next system reload or power cycle. For

 

 

 

example:

 

 

 

Router(config)# boot system bootflash:csr1000v-universalk9.03.10.00.S.153-3.S-ext.SPA.bin

Step 5

(Optional) Repeat Step 4 to specify the order in which the router should attempt to load any backup

 

 

 

system images.

Step 6

exit

 

 

 

Use this command to exit global configuration mode:

 

 

 

Router(config)# exit

 

 

 

Router#

Step 7

write

 

 

 

or

 

 

 

write memory

 

 

 

Router# write memory

 

 

 

 

 

Note

This step is required beginning with Cisco IOS XE Release 3.9S if upgrading to a later version. Entering

 

 

 

the write or write memory command updates the GRUB menu list of images available on the bootflash

 

 

 

disk.

 

 

Step 8

show version

 

 

 

Use this command to display the configuration register setting:

 

 

 

Router# show version

 

 

 

Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software

 

 

 

.

 

 

 

.

 

 

 

.

 

 

 

Configuration register is 0x0

 

 

 

Router#

Step 9

If the last digit in the configuration register is 0 or 1, proceed to Step 10. However, if the last digit in the

 

 

 

configuration register is between 2 and F, proceed to Step 13.

Step 10

configure terminal

 

 

 

Use this command to enter global configuration mode:

 

 

 

Router# configure terminal

 

 

 

Router(config)#

Step 11

config-register 0x2102

 

 

 

Use this command to set the configuration register so that, after the next system reload or power cycle,

 

 

 

the router loads a system image from the boot system commands in the startup configuration file:

 

 

 

Router(config)# config-register 0x2102
