New interfaces are not available until you configure them.
Note
Step 3 If the SIPs and SPAs have not become active within three minutes, refer to the system console messages. If there is no
indication that a field-programmable device (FPD) upgrade is underway, see Troubleshooting the Installation, on page
101.
Using show Commands to Verify SIP and SPA Status
The following procedure uses show commands to verify that the new SPAs are configured and operating
correctly.
Step 1 Use the show running-config command to display the system configuration. Verify that the configuration includes the
new SPA interfaces.
Step 2 Display information about the installed SIPs using the show diag command.
Step 3 Use the hw-module fpd location <rack/slot/subslot> command to verify the FPD version information of the SPAs
installed in the system.
If a SPA does not meet the minimum version required, the FPD may need to be updated. Refer to Cisco ASR
9000 Series Aggregation Services Router System Management Configuration Guide for instructions. If the
update fails, the failing module is powered down and an error message displays on the system console.
Note
Step 4 Use the show platform command to check the state of all the boards in the chassis, including the SIP and the SPAs.
The SPA state should be “OK” and the SIP card state should be “IOS XR RUN” in the show platform command output
Step 5 Finally, you can use the show version command to obtain software version information for the installed SIPs as well as
interfaces available.
Using show Commands to Display SPA Information
The following table describes the show commands you can use to display SPA information.
