Chapter 7 Upgrading, Configuration, and Troubleshooting Tasks Using the show version Command Router(config)# boot bootldr bootdisk:c7300-boot-mz-my-image Router(config)# copy system: running-config nvram: startup-config The show bootvar command can be used in ROMmon mode to verify that parameter settings are correct. In cases where the system will not boot up, you can also use the bootldr command in ROMmon mode. First check to see if bootldr is set correctly: ROMMON> set If bootldr is not set correctly, set it with the correct image: ROMMON> BOOTLDR="bootdisk:c7300-boot-mz-my-image" Caution Be careful of typographical errors in ROMmon mode as there is no error checking. You can use the ROMmon command sync to save the current parameters that remain after a power cycle to NVRAM. Use the set command to check your configuration. Failure to Boot After a SDRAM Upgrade or Replacement Note Only the NSE-100 uses SDRAM SODIMMs. The NSE-150 DDR-SODIMMs are not field-upgradeable. If, after a SDRAM upgrade or replacement, the system fails to boot properly, or if the console terminal displays a checksum or memory error, ensure that the SODIMM is installed correctly. If necessary, shut down the system and remove the network services engine. Check the SODIMM by looking straight down on it and then at eye level. If the SODIMM appears to stick out or rest in the socket at an odd angle, remove it and reinsert it. Then replace the network services engine and reboot the system for another installation check. If after several attempts the system fails to restart properly, contact a service representative for assistance. Before you call, note any error messages, unusual LED states, or other indications that might help solve the problem.

Upgrading, Configuration, and Troubleshooting Tasks
Using the show version Command
Router(config)#
boot
bootldr bootdisk:c7300-boot-mz-my-image
Router(config)#
copy system: running-config nvram: startup-config
The
show bootvar
command can be used in ROMmon mode to verify that parameter settings are correct.
In cases where the system will not boot up, you can also use the
bootldr
command in ROMmon mode.
First check to see if
bootldr
is set correctly:
ROMMON>
set
If
bootldr
is not set correctly, set it with the correct image:
ROMMON>
BOOTLDR=”bootdisk:c7300-boot-mz-my-image”
Caution
Be careful of typographical errors in ROMmon mode as there is no error checking.
You can use the ROMmon command
sync
to save the current parameters that remain after a power cycle
to NVRAM.
Use the
set
command to check your configuration.
Failure to Boot After a SDRAM Upgrade or Replacement
Note
Only the NSE-100 uses SDRAM SODIMMs. The NSE-150 DDR-SODIMMs are not field-upgradeable.
If, after a SDRAM upgrade or replacement, the system fails to boot properly, or if the console terminal
displays a checksum or memory error, ensure that the SODIMM is installed correctly. If necessary, shut
down the system and remove the network services engine. Check the SODIMM by looking straight down
on it and then at eye level. If the SODIMM appears to stick out or rest in the socket at an odd angle,
remove it and reinsert it. Then replace the network services engine and reboot the system for another
installation check.
If after several attempts the system fails to restart properly, contact a service representative for
assistance. Before you call, note any error messages, unusual LED states, or other indications that might
help solve the problem.
Using the show version Command
Use the
show version
command to display the configuration of the system hardware including the NSE
and the software version.
The following example of the
show version
command identifies an NSE-100 installed in a Cisco 7304
router:
