Chapter 6 Maintenance

Upgrading the SDRAM Memory Modules

Step 4 Use the following command to copy the file new.image in slot 1 to the flash memory card in slot 0, only if there is enough memory space for the two images to coexist. If there is not enough memory space, proceed to Step 5.

Router# copy disk1:new.image disk0:new.image

Note You can also enter the preceding command as copy disk1:new.image disk0:.

Step 5 Use the following series of commands to designate the file new.image (which is on the flash memory card in slot 0) as the default boot image:

Router# configure terminal

Router(config)# no boot system

Router(config)# boot system flash disk0:new.image

Router(config)# ^z

Router# copy running-config startup-config

Router# reload

When the system reloads, it boots the file new.image from the flash memory card in slot 0.

Upgrading the SDRAM Memory Modules

The Cisco uBR7100 series router has upgradable memory modules on the network processing card located inside the router. To access these modules, you must remove the top cover of the chassis. Review the safety information before starting this procedure.

Note SDRAM system memory defaults to 128 MB and can be upgraded to either 192 MB or 256 MB. (SDRAM packet memory is fixed at 64 MB.)

Warning Before performing any of the following procedures, ensure that power is removed from the DC circuit. Statement 1003

Warning Hazardous voltage or energy is present on the backplane when the system is operating. Use caution when servicing. Statement 1034

Warning Do not touch the power supply when the power cord is connected. For systems with a power switch, line voltages are present within the power supply even when the power switch is off and the power cord is connected. For systems without a power switch, line voltages are present within the power supply when the power cord is connected. Statement 4

Warning Hazardous network voltages are present in WAN ports regardless of whether power to the unit is OFF or ON. To avoid electric shock, use caution when working near WAN ports. When detaching cables, detach the end away from the unit first. Statement 1026
