Upgrading the Software for a Routing Matrix

By default, when you upgrade software on the TX Matrix platform, the new image is loaded onto the TX Matrix platform and distributed to all T640 routing nodes in the routing matrix. To upgrade software for the entire routing matrix, issue the request system software add command:


user@router> request system software add
jbundle-7.0-20040705.0-domestic-signed.tgz

user@router> ...test/jinstall-9.1-daily-domestic.tgz reboot no-validate

When you complete the software installation and reboot the TX Matrix platform, all T640 routing nodes also reboot and all devices in the routing matrix execute the new software.

To upgrade the backup Routing Engines, log in to the backup Routing Engine on the TX Matrix platform before you issue the request system software add command.

You can also update the software on the TX Matrix platform only or on a specific T640 routing node as needed by including the lcc or scc option.

Note: The master Routing Engines in all components of a routing matrix must run the same version of software in order to operate. As a result, we recommend that you upgrade all components simultaneously and upgrade individual components only in rare cases.

Note: We recommend you run the same JUNOS software release on the master and backup Routing Engines on all components of a routing matrix. If you elect to run different JUNOS software releases on the Routing Engines, a change in Routing Engine mastership can cause one or all T640 routing nodes to be logically disconnected from the TX Matrix platform. It is also a best practice to make sure that all master Routing Engines are re0 and all backup Routing Engines are re1 (or vice versa).

Note: You must use the same Routing Engine model in all LCC and SCC components of a routing matrix. For example, a routing matrix with an SCC using an RE-A-2000 and an LCC using an RE-1600 is not supported.
