  2. USB
  3. CTPView

Upgrading to Dual Image on CTP150 or CTP2000 Series Device

Installing Dual Image on CTP150 or CTP2000 Series Device Manually through CLI

The following steps illustrate how to manually upgrade to a CTPOS 9.1R3.1 dual image from an existing single image or a dual image using CLI commands.

Note

The steps involved to upgrade dual image on a CTP150 or CTP2000 series device varies from the steps to upgrade dual image on a CTP151 device.

The package acorn_310_dual_image_upgrade_ctp150_ctp2k-02_-03_211221.tgz is needed to upgrade to CTPOS 9.1R3.1 on CTP150 or CTP2000 Series devices running CTPOS 9.0Rx and acorn_429_dual_image_upgrade_ctp150_ctp2k-02_-03_211221.tgz package is needed to upgrade to CTPOS 9.1R3.1 on CTP150 or CTP2000 Series devices running CTPOS 7.3Rx. Extract the package from the tarball ctp_complete_9.1R3-1_211221.tgz that is available in the Juniper Networks download page at https://support.juniper.net/support/downloads/ for CTPOS 9.1R3.1 Release. This package, when executed:

On a single image system, it will

  • Upgrade the system to dual image (porting the previous single image contents into image 1 of the dual image flash).

  • Prepare the system to accept image upgrade tar ball (create RAM disk).

On a dual image system, will

Prepare the system to accept image upgrade tar ball (create RAM disk).

The “upgrade” program is executed to run acorn_310_dual_image_upgrade_ctp150_ctp2k-02_-03_211221.tgz or acorn_429_dual_image_upgrade_ctp150_ctp2k-02_-03_211221.tgz package on CTP2000 and CTP150.

When running “upgrade” program from a CTPOS version 9.x, the acorn_310_dual_image_upgrade_ctp150_ctp2k-02_-03_211221.tgz is required.

When running “upgrade” program from a CTPOS version 7.x, the acorn_429_dual_image_upgrade_ctp150_ctp2k-02_-03_211221.tgz is required.

The following steps show how to upgrade to a CTPOS 9.1R3.1 dual image on an existing CTPOS 9.0R1 on a CTP150 device.

  1. Copy acorn_310_dual_image_upgrade_ctp150_ctp2k-02_-03_211221.tgz to /tmp of CTP Device.

    /tmp#scp acorn_310_dual_image_upgrade_ctp150_ctp2k-02_-03_211221.tgz ctp_cmd@10.216.118.87:/tmp

    No login banner configured

    Password:

  2. Run "upgrade y" on CTP Node. You can also run “upgrade” to execute in interactive way.Note

    This “upgrade” program, when issued with the “y” option, will execute non-interactively, and not ask the you for any inputs. If you want to guide the upgrade process, then you must execute “upgrade” instead.

    [root@ctp_87:/tmp 4]# upgrade y
  3. Copy CTPOS_partitions tar ball to /mnt/ramdisk of CTP Node.
    tmp#scp CTPOS_9.1R3-1_partitions_ctp150_ctp2k-02_-03_211221.tgz ctp_cmd@10.216.118.87:/mnt/ramdisk
    [root@ctp_87:/tmp 5]# ls -ltrh /mnt/ramdisk/
  4. Run "upgrade" on CTP Node. Type “y” when asked for system reboot. You can run “upgrade y” to execute in a non-interactive way.
    [root@ctp_219:/tmp 16]# upgrade
    Do you want to install the newest archive in quick mode (no questions)? y[n]: n
    Do you want to install the newest archive interactively (w/ questions)? y[n]: y
    Please enter valid input: 2
    Are you sure you want to transfer system identity files? y/n :n
    Do you want to reboot system now [y/n]?: y

    The system will reboot and come up with CTPOS 9.1R3.1 image.

Installing Dual Image on CTP150 or CTP2000 Series device from USB

The USB flash image ctpos_usb_install_9.1R3-1_ctp150_ctp2k-02_-03_211221.img is needed to upgrade to CTPOS 9.1R3.1 on a CTP150 or CTP2000 series device. Download this image from the Juniper Networks download page at https://support.juniper.net/support/downloads/ for CTPOS 9.1R3.1 Release.

Note

USB install is not supported for CTP2000 platforms with 02 (PP332) processor.

When USB install for dual upgrade is executed:

On a single image system, it will

  • upgrade system to dual image (porting the previous single image contents into image 1 of the dual image flash)

  • prepare the system to accept image upgrade tar ball (create RAM disk)

On a dual image system, it will

prepare the system to accept image upgrade tar ball (create RAM disk)

Following steps illustrate how to upgrade dual image CTPOS 9.1R3.1 on a CTP2000 device with PP833 processor.

  1. Insert your USB disk into the CTP150 or CTP2000 series device, and burn the USB install image to it.
    ssh root@198.1.1.1 dd if=ctpos_usb_install_9.1R3-1_ctp150_ctp2k-02_-03_211221.img of=<USB device name> bs=1M

    In the above command, replace "198.1.1.1" IP address with your server IP.

  2. Reboot CTP Node.

    Press F2 key twice to go to the BIOS menu in CTP2000 series device with PP833 processor.

    If you are doing USB install on a CTP150 device, press Backspace to enter the BIOS menu.
  3. Press Enter and select Boot Type Order.
  4. Press Enter. Press <F5> key to display the USB option.
  5. Press Esc key twice and go to Exit.
  6. Select Exit Saving Changes and enter Yes.

    The system will boot and comes up with USB menu displaying the following.
