Removing and Replacing Cisco ASR 1000 Series Route
Processors
Keep in mind the following points before you remove and replace a Cisco ASR 1000 Series route processor:
• The Cisco ASR 1002 Router and the Cisco ASR 1002-F Router support only the integrated Cisco
ASR1002-RP1.
• If you have two Cisco ASR 1000 Series route processors in the Cisco ASR 1006 or Cisco ASR 1013
router and you want to remove one, do not power down the router. Remove the route processor and insert

a new one because high availability provides for the other route processor to take on the processing tasks
for the router.
• The Cisco ASR 1001 Router and the Cisco ASR 1002-X Router support an integrated route processor,
embedded services processor, and SIP.
The following sections describe the procedures for removing and replacing the Cisco ASR 1000 Series RP1
and Cisco ASR1000-RP2 in your Cisco ASR 1000 chassis. This section contains these topics:

This section contains the following topics:
Cisco ASR1000-RP1 Spare Hard Drive Accessory Kit
The Cisco ASR 1000 Series RP1 spare hard drive ships with an accessory kit.Verify that the following items
have been shipped in the accessory kit before you remove and replace a damaged Cisco ASR 1000 Series
RP1 module internal hard drive:
• Hard drive assembly
• Two cables
• Tie wrap
• One EMI wrist strap
Follow these procedures to remove and then replace the Cisco ASR1000- RP1 internal hard drive in the Cisco
ASR 1006 and Cisco ASR 1004 Router.
During this procedure, wear grounding wrist straps to avoid ESD damage to the card. Do not directly touch
the backplane with your hand or any metal tool, or you could shock yourself. Statement 94
Warning
Before you begin, read the following important notices:
• The Cisco ASR1000-RP1 requires an OIR (shutdown).
•The reason you would be removing an internal hard drive is that it is failing or failed; so any data recovery
may be lost.
• If the drive is functioning, you can back it up to a drive plugged into a USB port using the archive tar
command.
• To restore the backup copy from an external USB flash memory stick plugged into a USB port to the
internal hard drive, type in:
archive tar /xtract usb0:asr1000.tar harddisk
• Verify that the internal hard drive installation was successful
Removing and Replacing the Cisco ASR1000-RP1 Module Internal Hard Drive
The Cisco ASR 1000 Series route processor (RP1) contains an internal hard drive disk that provides nonvolatile

Removing the Cisco ASR1000-RP1 Internal Hard Drive
To remove the Cisco ASR1000-RP1 from the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router, follow this procedure:
SUMMARY STEPS
1. Slip on the ESD-preventive wrist strap that was included in the accessory kit. Loosen the screw fasteners
on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series RP1 module.
2. Using the handles on both sides of the module, with two hands gently slide the Cisco ASR1000-RP1 out
of the chassis.
3. Place the module on a flat surface free of dust and dirt.
4. Remove the internal hard drive cover:
5. Remove the internal drive cover:
6. Inspect the existing cables and replace them only if they are damaged. If you do not need to replace them,
leave the connection to the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Route Processor 1 in place and only remove the
connection to the internal hard drive.
7. Carefully disconnect the cables at the rear of the hard drive. These cables are tie-wrapped in to prevent
them from disconnecting from the Cisco ASR 1000 Series RP1 itself. If the cables are not damaged, leave
the cables connected to the Cisco ASR 1000 Series RP1 with the tie wrap in place. Remove the old hard
drive.
8. If the cables are damaged:
DETAILED STEPS
Step 1 Slip on the ESD-preventive wrist strap that was included in the accessory kit. Loosen the screw fasteners on the Cisco
ASR 1000 Series RP1 module.
Step 2 Using the handles on both sides of the module, with two hands gently slide the Cisco ASR1000-RP1 out of the chassis.
Step 3 Place the module on a flat surface free of dust and dirt.
Step 4 Remove the internal hard drive cover:
a. Unscrew the fasteners.

Removing and Replacing the Cisco ASR 1000 Series DIMM
Memory Modules
Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers support the Cisco ASR1000-RP1 and the Cisco ASR1000-RP2 route processor
DIMM memory modules for system DRAM. This section describes how to replace the DIMMs on the Cisco
ASR1000-RP1, the Cisco ASR1000-RP2 route processors, the Cisco ASR 1001, and the Cisco ASR 1002-X
routers.
The following table shows the Cisco ASR1000-RP1 and Cisco ASR1000-RP2 memory design.

You might need to upgrade the DIMM for the following reasons:
• You have upgraded to a new Cisco IOS feature set or release that requires more memory.
• You are using very large routing tables or many protocols.

Removing and Replacing the DIMM Memory Modules on the Cisco ASR 1006
Router and the Cisco ASR 1013 Router
The Cisco ASR 1006 Router and the Cisco ASR 1013 Router have redundant RPs. The following is an
overview of the steps to remove and replace the DIMM memory modules on these routers:
SUMMARY STEPS
1. Remove the standby RP by performing the procedure described in the xref “Removing the Cisco ASR
1000 Series Route Processor from the Cisco ASR 1006, Cisco ASR 1004, and Cisco ASR 1013 Routers”
section.
2. Remove the DIMM memory module from the standby RP by performing one of the following procedures:
• Removing and Replacing the Cisco ASR1000-RP1 DIMM Memory Modules
Removing the Cisco ASR1000-RP2 DIMMs
Removing and Replacing FRUs from the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers

3. Insert the new DIMM memory module on the standby RP by performing one of the following procedures:
• Removing and Replacing the Cisco ASR1000-RP1 DIMM Memory Modules
Removing the Cisco ASR1000-RP2 DIMMs
4. Insert the standby RP by performing the procedure described in the xref “Removing the Cisco ASR 1000
Series Route Processor from the Cisco ASR 1006, Cisco ASR 1004, and Cisco ASR 1013 Routers” section.
5. Verify the memory upgrade on the standby RP by running the following commands:
6. Use the redundancy force-switchover command to switch the upgraded standby RP to the active state.
The RP that was in the active state moves to the standby state.
7. Repeat Step 1 through Step 5 on the standby RP.
DETAILED STEPS
Step 1 Remove the standby RP by performing the procedure described in the xref “Removing the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Route
Processor from the Cisco ASR 1006, Cisco ASR 1004, and Cisco ASR 1013 Routers” section.
Step 2 Remove the DIMM memory module from the standby RP by performing one of the following procedures:
• Removing and Replacing the Cisco ASR1000-RP1 DIMM Memory Modules
Removing the Cisco ASR1000-RP2 DIMMs
Step 3 Insert the new DIMM memory module on the standby RP by performing one of the following procedures:
• Removing and Replacing the Cisco ASR1000-RP1 DIMM Memory Modules
Removing the Cisco ASR1000-RP2 DIMMs
Step 4 Insert the standby RP by performing the procedure described in the xref “Removing the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Route
Processor from the Cisco ASR 1006, Cisco ASR 1004, and Cisco ASR 1013 Routers” section.
Step 5 Verify the memory upgrade on the standby RP by running the following commands:
