This configuration note contains procedures for installing the 32-MB single inline memory module (SIMM), network management processor (NMP) boot ROM, and master communication processor (MCP) boot ROM upgrade kits for the Catalyst 5000 series Supervisor Engine II.
This document contains the following sections:
The following tools are required to remove and replace the SIMM and NMP and MCP boot ROMs:
Note Refer to the Catalyst 5000 Series Installation Guide for ESD details including the locations of the ESD connectors on the Catalyst 5000 series switches.
Safety warnings appear throughout this note in procedures that, if performed incorrectly, may harm you. A warning symbol precedes each warning statement.
Follow these guidelines to ensure your safety and protect the equipment. This list does not include all potentially hazardous situations that you may be exposed to as you install the switch, so be alert.
The redundant supervisor engine, power supplies, fan assembly, and switching modules are designed to be removed and replaced while the system is operating without presenting an electrical hazard or damage to the system.
Follow these basic guidelines when working with any electrical equipment:
To check if you need to upgrade the boot ROMs on your Supervisor Engine II, follow these steps:
Step 2 With the switch up and running, enter the show version command to check the boot ROM version numbers on the Supervisor Engine II.
Check the Fw and Fw1 version levels. The Fw version number is the NMP boot ROM version level. The Fw1 version number is the MCP boot ROM version level.
If the NMP version level is lower than software release 5.1(2), you must upgrade the NMP boot ROM on the module. If the MCP version level is lower than software release 4.3(1), you must upgrade the MCP boot ROM on the module.
This example shows how to check the boot ROM version levels on a Supervisor Engine II:
In this example, the NMP boot ROM (Fw) version level is software release 3.1(2), and the MCP boot ROM (Fw1) version level is software release 3.1(1). Before using the Supervisor Engine II in the Catalyst 5000 series chassis, you must upgrade both the NMP and MCP boot ROMs.
To remove and replace the SIMM, NMP boot ROM, and MCP boot ROM, you must first remove the supervisor engine from the switch.
Note Catalyst 5505, Catalyst 5509, and Catalyst 5500 switches—When two supervisor engines are installed, hot swapping allows you to remove and replace one of the supervisor engines without turning off the system power.
Before you remove a supervisor engine, you should first upload the current configuration to a server. This saves time when bringing the module back online. You can recover the configuration by downloading it from the server to the nonvolatile memory of the supervisor engine.
Note When removing the supervisor engine, use the ejector levers to ensure that the connector pins disconnect from the backplane properly. Any supervisor engine or switching module that is only partially connected to the backplane can disrupt the system. Follow the installation instructions carefully. Detailed instructions for removing and installing switching modules are described in the Catalyst 5000 Series Module Installation Guide.
To remove a supervisor engine, perform these steps:
Step 2 Use a screwdriver to loosen the captive installation screws at the left and right sides of the module.
Step 3 Grasp the left and right ejector levers; simultaneously pull the left lever to the left and the right lever to the right to release the module from the backplane connector.
Step 4 As you pull the module out of the slot, place one of your hands under the carrier to support it. Avoid touching the module itself.
Step 5 Carefully pull the module straight out of the slot, keeping one hand under the carrier to guide it. Keep the module at a 90-degree orientation to the backplane (horizontal to
the floor).
Step 6 Place the removed module on an antistatic mat or antistatic foam.
Note When you remove and replace the redundant supervisor engine, the system provides status messages on the console screen. The messages are for information only. Enter the show system and show module commands to view specific information. For additional information, refer to the Software Configuration Guide and Command Reference for your switch.
The SIMM is fastened to the Supervisor Engine II motherboard. Once you remove the supervisor engine from the Catalyst 5000 series switch, you can remove and replace the SIMM.
To remove and replace the SIMM, refer to Figure 3 and perform the following steps:
Step 2 Hold the SIMM by the edges and gently lift and remove it, placing it on an antistatic mat or foam.
Step 3 Remove the replacement 32-MB SIMM from its package, holding it by its edges, and carefully insert it into the connector so that it clicks into place.
To upgrade the NMP and MCP boot ROMs in the Supervisor Engine II, follow these steps:
Step 2 Locate the NMP boot ROM on the Supervisor Engine II.
On the 100BaseTX Supervisor Engine II (WS-X5509), the NMP boot ROM is located in socket U145 of the motherboard (see Figure 4).
On the 100BaseFX single-mode (WS-X5505) or multimode (WS-X5506) fiber Supervisor Engine II, the NMP boot ROM is located in socket U146 of the motherboard (see Figure 4).
Note The NMP boot ROM socket is physically in the same location on all Supervisor Engine IIs; only the socket number is different.
Step 3 To extract the NMP boot ROM from the motherboard, slide the tips of the PLCC extractor tool into the socket extraction slots until the angled tips are beneath the boot ROM device (see Figure 5).
Holding the tool as shown in Figure 5, remove the chip from the socket by squeezing the handles of the extraction tool evenly and pulling the boot ROM device straight upward until it is released from the socket. Use care not to damage the boot ROM device or
the socket.
Step 4 Place the extracted NMP boot ROM in an antistatic bag.
Step 5 Carefully remove the new software release 5.1(2) NMP boot ROM from its packaging.
Note The NMP boot ROM chip has the Cisco part number 17-3419-10 etched on the top
of the chip. Ensure that you are working with the NMP boot ROM and not the MCP
boot ROM.
Step 6 Insert the NMP boot ROM in socket U145 or U146 on the motherboard. Be sure to orient the boot ROM so that the notched corner of the chip matches the notched corner of the socket (see Figure 6). Press the boot ROM into place evenly and firmly until it is completely seated in the socket.
Step 7 Locate the MCP boot ROM on the Supervisor Engine II. The MCP boot ROM is located in socket U56 of the motherboard (see Figure 4).
Step 8 To extract the MCP boot ROM from the motherboard, slide the tips of the PLCC extractor tool into the socket extraction slots until the angled tips are beneath the boot ROM device (see Figure 5).
Holding the tool as shown in Figure 5, remove the chip from the socket by squeezing the handles of the extraction tool evenly and pulling the boot ROM device straight upward until it is released from the socket. Use care not to damage the boot ROM or the socket.
Step 9 Place the extracted MCP boot ROM in an antistatic bag.
Step 10 Carefully remove the new software release 4.3(1) MCP boot ROM from its packaging.
Note The MCP boot ROM chip has the Cisco part number 17-3420-09 etched on the top of the chip. Ensure that you are working with the MCP boot ROM and not the NMP boot ROM.
Step 11 Insert the MCP boot ROM in socket U56 on the motherboard. Be sure to orient the boot ROM so that the notched corner of the chip matches the notched corner of the socket (see Figure 6). Press the boot ROM into place evenly and firmly until it is completely seated in the socket.
Step 12 Install the supervisor engine in the Catalyst 5000 series switch (see the "Replacing the Supervisor Engine" section for installation instructions) and boot the switch.
Step 13 When the system comes online, use the show version command to verify that the supervisor engine Fw (NMP) version level is software release 5.1(2) and that the Fw1 (MCP) version level is software release 4.3(1):
Note The ejector levers on the supervisor engine and switching modules align and seat the module connectors in the backplane (see Figure 1). If you fail to use the ejector levers to insert the module, you can disrupt the order in which the pins contact the backplane. The ejector levers must be pulled out as you slide the module in. Follow the installation instructions carefully. Detailed instructions for removing and installing switching modules are described in the Catalyst 5000 Series Module Installation Guide.
To replace the supervisor engine, follow Steps 1 through 6 in the "Removing the Supervisor Engine" section in reverse order. Note that the supervisor engine must go in a specific slot:
