Caution: Before removing a software package or bundle, make sure that you have already placed the new software package or bundle that you intend to load onto the router. |
software-package — Software package or bundle name. You can delete any or all of the following software bundles or packages:
force — (Optional) Ignore warnings and force removal of the software.
lcc number — (Routing matrix only) (Optional) Remove an extension or upgrade package from a specific T640 routing node (or line-card chassis) that is connected to a TX Matrix platform. Replace number with a value from 0 through 3.
scc — (Routing matrix only) (Optional) Remove an extension or upgrade package from the TX Matrix platform (or switch-card chassis).
Before upgrading the software on the router, when you have a known stable system, issue the request system snapshot command to back up the software, including the configuration, to the /altroot and /altconfig file systems. After you have upgraded the software on the router and are satisfied that the new packages are successfully installed and running, issue the request system snapshot command again to back up the new software to the /altroot and /altconfig file systems. After you run the request system snapshot command, you cannot return to the previous version of the software, because the running and backup copies of the software are identical.

request system software validate
When you enter this command, you are provided feedback on the status of your request.
