Upgrading Only Your Cisco IOS Release and Retaining Your Current FPD Image
You may choose to upgrade your Cisco IOS release with or without retaining your current FPD image. You
may choose to upgrade your Cisco IOS image and retain your current FPD image, although this is not
recommended.
SUMMARY STEPS
1. Use the no upgrade fpd auto command to disable the bundled FPD image.
2. Save the configuration before loading the new image.
3. Load the new image.
DETAILED STEPS
Step 1
Use the no upgrade fpd auto command to disable the bundled FPD image.
The automatic upgrade feature is disabled once you enter the no upgrade fpd auto command.
Note
Step 2
Save the configuration before loading the new image.
Step 3
Load the new image.
Note
If your current FPD image is not compatible with the new image, the SPAs do not come online.
Upgrading FPD Images in a Production System
Adding a SPA to a production system presents the possibility that the SPA may contain versions of FPD
images that are incompatible with the Cisco IOS release currently running the router. In addition, the FPD
upgrade operation can be a very CPU-intensive operation and therefore the upgrade operation may take more
time when it is performed on a production system. The performance impact will vary depending on various
factors, including network traffic load, the type of processing engine used, type of SPA, and the type of service
configured.
For these reasons, we recommend that one of the following alternatives be used to perform the FPD upgrade
on a production system if possible:

Before beginning the upgrade, ensure:
• The spare system is running the same version of the Cisco IOS software release that the target production
OL-14127-17
system is running.
