Step 4 Enter the scheduling information. By default, jobs are scheduled to run as soon as possible.
Note The time you specify here to schedule the activation job is the server time.
Step 5 Enter the e-mail ID(s) to which to send a notification after the scheduled activation job is complete. For
two or more users, enter a comma-separated list of e-mail IDs. A notification e-mail is sent based on the
e-mail option specified in the Image Management Settings page.
Step 6 (For Cisco ASR 9000 series routers and Cisco Carrier Routing System (CRS) devices only) Check the
ISSU option, to update the router software with minimal service interruption.
Step 7 Check the Commit check box to commit the packages after activation.
Note We recommend that you do not commit the package change until the device runs with its
configuration for a period of time, until you are sure the change is appropriate. In that way, the
change is not yet persisted across device reloads.
Step 8 Click one of the following to specify the operation mode, if you have selected two or more devices in
the Select Devices page.
• In Parallel—Activates packages for all devices at the same time.
• Sequentially—Allows you to define the order of the devices to activate the packages for.
Step 9 Click Finished to schedule the activation.
Step 10 After the job completes:
• For Test Only jobs, repeat this procedure to activate the packages.
• If you activated or deactivated a Cisco IOS XR package, remember to commit your changes.
However, we recommend that you do not commit the package change until the device runs with its
configuration for a period of time, until you are sure the change is appropriate. In that way, the
change is not yet persisted across device reloads. See Commit Cisco IOS XR Packages Across
Device Reloads, page 4-41.
Synchronize and Upgrade Satellites for Cisco ASR 9000 Devices
CCM provides satellite support for Cisco ASR 9000 devices. Satellites are used to enhance performance
bandwidth of Cisco ASR 9000 devices. Each satellite is a Cisco IOS device connected to the Cisco ASR
9000 device. Multiple satellites can be connected to a single Cisco ASR 9000 device and all
communications to the satellites happen only through the Cisco ASR 9000 device. Each satellite has its
own configuration and software image.
CCM provides the following support for Cisco ASR 9000 device with satellites:
• Synchronization of all satellites together.
• Activation of the satellite pie image on Cisco ASR 9000 device with and without synchronization
of satellites. You must run a CLI/XML command to check for compatibility and then push the image
to the remote satellite.
