Upgrading FPD
• A line card chassis is added to an existing CRS multi-chassis router.
• A non-reload software maintenance upgrade (SMU) or PIE installation is performed, even where the
Note
In all cases where the automatic FPD upgrade is not performed, you must perform a manual FPD upgrade
using the upgrade hw-module fpd command.
FPD auto-upgrade can be enabled and disabled. When auto FPD is enabled, it automatically updates FPDs
when a SMU or image changes, including an updated firmware revision. Use the fpd auto-upgrade command
to disable or enable auto-fpd.
How to Upgrade FPD Images
You must determine if an FPD image upgrade is needed using the show hw-module fpd command and
perform the upgrade, if you migrate the software to a later Cisco IOS XR software release
In the event that there is an FPD incompatibility with your card, you may receive an error message. If you
upgrade to a newer version of the Cisco IOS XR software and there is an FPD incompatibility, you receive
the following message:
LC/0/1/CPU0:Dec 23 16:33:47.945 : spa_192_jacket_v2[203]: %PLATFORM-UPGRADE_FPD-4-DOWN_REV
: spa fpga2 instance 0 is down-rev (V0.6), upgrade to (V1.0). Use the "upgrade hw-module
fpd" CLI in admin mode.
If the FPD image on the card is newer then what is required by the currently running Cisco IOS XR software
image on the router, you receive the following error message:
LC/0/1/CPU0:Dec 23 16:33:47.955 : spa_192_jacket_v2[203]: %PLATFORM-UPGRADE_FPD-4-UP_REV :
spa fpga instance 1 is severely up-rev (V2.1), downgrade to (V1.6). Use the "upgrade hw-module
fpd" CLI in admin mode.
You should perform the FPD upgrade procedure if you receive such messages. Cards may not function properly
if FPD incompatibilities are not resolved.
Note
An error message is displayed (as shown below) when version-34 of FPGA is upgraded to version-37.
This is only for CRS-X linecards. However, when the user upgrades to version-37, from any other lower
version (other than version-34), this failure message is not displayed. Even though we see this failure
message ,FPD upgrade will complete successfully and after a power cycle/reload it will properly reflect
the upgraded version. There is no functionality impact.

OPERATION_FAILED : Failed to update FPD
Note
The use of the force option when performing a FPD upgrade is not recommended except under explicit
direction from Cisco engineering or TAC.
FPD image version changes. Since a non-reload installation is, by definition, not supposed to reload the
router, and an FPD upgrade requires a router reload, the automatic FPD upgrade is repressed.
