Cisco ASR 9000 Series Manual page 28

Migrating from RP1 to RP2 Card
• The router must be running Cisco IOS XR software release 5.3.2 or later version.
• The router must have two RP1 cards (active and standby) up and running.
• Cisco ASR 9000 Ethernet Line Card (first generation) must be removed from the chassis as they are
incompatible with RP2.
• Cisco ASR 9000 High Density 100GE Ethernet line cards must be power down or temporarily removed
before starting the migration procedure. Use the hw-module power disable location node-id command
in admin-config mode to power down the LC.
Procedure
Step 1 Use the show redundancy summary command to verify that the RP0 and RP1 are in Ready State.
