b. Install the Remove Upgrade Package: This operation removes the dummy packages of
Cisco
IOS XR software release 4.0; no Cisco IOS XR software release 4.0 software is being
removed. This is only a bridging package to facilitate upgrade from Cisco
IOS XR software release
pre-4.0 software to Cisco
IOS XR software release 4.0 software as the package names have
changed. The upgrade package contains Cisco
IOS XR software release 4.0 dummy packages
compatible with Cisco
IOS XR software release pre-4.0 packages which are not typically used once
you have upgraded to Cisco
IOS XR software release 4.0 software. Once your upgrade to
Cisco
IOS XR software release 4.0 has completed successfully, the Cisco IOS XR software release
4.0 dummy packages (which were installed solely for compatibility with the existing
Cisco
IOS XR software release pre-4.0 packages) can be removed safely.
Step 6 Now perform an install commit command and continue testing the Cisco IOS XR software release
4.0.0.T.PX Image.

System Hardware Compatibility Matrix
To convert the existing 40G based Cisco CRS-1 system to 140G based Cisco CRS-3 system, the MSC,
PLIM & Fabric cards would need to be replaced.
Refer to Table 1-5 on page 1-20 for the new 140G-based Cisco CRS-3 hardware.
