1. Before you copy a file to Flash memory, be sure there is ample space available in Flash memory. Compare the size of the file you are copying to the
amount of available Flash memory shown. If the space available is less than the space required by the file you will copy, the copy process will continue,
but the entire file will not be copied into Flash memory.
Fast Software Upgrade Example
The following example show a Fast Software Upgrade performed on a Cisco 7507 router with an active
RSP in slot 2 and a standby RSP installed in slot 3.
Router# copy tftp slot0:rsp-pv-mz
Router# copy tftp slaveslot0:rsp-pv-mz
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# hw-module slot 2 image slot0:rsp-pv-mz
Router(config)# hw-module slot 3 image slot0:rsp-pv-mz
Router(config)# end
Router# hw-module sec-cpu reset
Router# copy running-config startup-config
Router# redundancy force-switchover
Configuring SLCR
The Cisco 7500 SLCR feature is disabled by default. Therefore, the process for disabling this feature is
only necessary if the Cisco 7500 SLCR feature has been enabled by the user on the Cisco 7500 series
router.
Enabling SLCR
To enable the Cisco 7500 Single Line Card Reload (SLCR) feature, use the service
single-slot-reload-enable global configuration command on the Cisco 7500 series router.
Command
Router(config)# service single-slot-reload-enable
Route Switch Processor (RSP8) Installation and Configuration Guide

(Optional) Turns on automatic synchronization of
configuration files. Use this command to ensure that
the active and standby RSPs contain the same
configuration files.
Exits global configuration mode and returns you to
privileged EXEC configuration mode.
Saves the configuration changes to your startup
configuration in NVRAM so the router boots with the
configuration you have entered.
Resets and reloads the standby RSP with the
specified Cisco IOS image and executes the image.
If you do not specify a Cisco IOS image in
Note
Step 2, this command loads and executes the
bundled default IOS standby image. The
system then operates in HSA mode.
Forces a switchover to the standby RSP.
Purpose
Enables single line card reloading for all of the line cards in the
Cisco 7500 series router.
