R0106-HP MSR Router Series Fundamentals Command Reference(V7)
168
characters for the storage-medium
:/
base-filename.ipe segments of the file path. On the MSR4000 router,
this length limit does not include the slot number information in front of the storage medium segment.
all: Specifies startup images for all cards.
slot slot-number: Specifies the slot number of an MPU.
backup: Specifies the files as backup startup image files. Backup images are used only when main
images are not available.
main: Specifies the files as main startup image files. The device always first attempts to start up with main
startup files.
Usage guidelines
On the MSR4000 router, use this command to upgrade the startup software images on both MPUs. To
upgrade the standby MPU with the startup images on the active MPU, you can also use the boot-loader
update command.
Before you specify startup software image files, perform the following tasks:
• Save the upgrade files to the root directory of the storage medium.
On the MSR4000 router, you can save the upgrade file to the root directory of the CF card on any
MPU. If the file is not on the MPU you are upgrading, the router automatically copies the images
from the specified file path to the MPU. If a file with the same name already exists in the destination
directory, you must choose whether to overwrite the file.
• If the specified software images require a license, register and activate a license for each image. If
a license-based software image lacks a license, the command execution result is as follows:
{ If .bin files are specified, the command cannot be issued.
{ If an .ipe file is specified, the command can set all the images except the license-based image
that lacks a license.
For more information about licensing, see Fundamentals Configuration Guide.
The boot-loader file command overwrites the entire startup software image list. To add new startup
feature images, specify all feature image files, including feature image files in the old startup software
image list. The new startup software image list will contain only the feature image files that are specified
in the command.
Examples
# Specify cfa0:/all.ipe as the main startup image file on an MSR2000 or MSR3000 router.
<Sysname> boot-loader file cfa0:/all.ipe main
Verifying the IPE file and the images............Done.
Images in IPE:
boot.bin
system.bin
This command will set the main startup software images. Continue? [Y/N]:Y
Add images to the device.
File cfa0:/boot.bin already exists on the device.
File cfa0:/system.bin already exists on the device.
Overwrite the existing files? [Y/N]:Y
Decompressing file boot.bin to cfa0:/boot.bin........................Done.
Decompressing file system.bin to cfa0:/system.bin...............................Done.
The images that have passed all examinations will be used as the main startup software
images at the next reboot on the device..
