[j-nsp] Problem with boot after JunOS upgrade (7.5 -> 8.1R3.3)

[Yevgeniy Voloshin]

Hi Group,

I have a problem with boot on M7i after upgrade JunOS:
request system software validate /var/tmp/jinstall-
8.1R3.3-export-signed.tgz
request system software add /var/tmp/jinstall-8.1R3.3-export-signed.tgzreboot

JunOS validation was OK, and after the reboot it didn't come up. Console
messages show cyclic reboot by watchdog timeout.
Only this console port connection is available. How to recover this under
such a constraints?

Hi,

thats not true in this cause. jbundle is for minor updates (8.1 to 8.2
for example or 8.1R1 to 8.1R2 etc..).
However for major upgrades jinstall is the way to go.

I have no idea what went wrong in this case. I suggest you do a clean
reinstall via CF/PCMCIA cards and copy over your old config (you do
backups, right?).

Regards,
Jonas Frey

Incorrect. From the JUNOS release notes:

When upgrading or downgrading the JUNOS software, always use the jinstall package. Use other packages (such as the jbundle package) only when so instructed by a Juniper Networks support representative. For information about the contents of the jinstall package and details of the installation process, see the JUNOS System Basics Configuration Guide.

Regardless, this doesn't help Yevgeniy with his problem.

Yevgeniy, is there any way you can do a fully clean install with the PCMCIA card using the Install Media JUNOS version?

Dear Eric,

Yevgeniy, is there any way you can do a fully clean install with the PCMCIA

Post by Eric Van Tol
card using the Install Media JUNOS version?

Do You mean Recipe 1.24 from JUNOS Cookbook By Aviva Garrett - Creating an
Emergency Boot Disk?

*Problem
You want to create a boot disk to use in an emergency if the software and
filesystems on the router become so damaged that you just want to
reconfigure the router from scratch.
**
Solution
Create a PCMCIA boot flash card that contains the JUNOS install media.
First, copy the install media from the JUNOS software download page on the
Juniper Networks support site ( http://www.juniper.net/support). On M-series
and T-series routers, copy this file to the router's /var/tmp directory.
Then, insert a PC card into the router's drive and copy the install media to
the PC card:

aviva at router1> start shell
aviva at router1% cd /var/tmp
aviva at router1% su
root at router1%
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rad3 count=20
root at router1% dd if=install-media-7.4R1.7-domestic of=/dev/rad3 bs=64k



To create a boot flash card for a J-series router, copy the install media to
a Windows or Unix PC and uncompress it with gzip or WinZip. Connect a PCMCIA
adapter or USB card reader to the PC and insert a compact flash card into
the device. On a Unix PC, use the following commands to copy the image to
the compact flash:

root at RouterJ# dd if=junos-jseries-7.4R1.7-export-cf256. of=/dev/hde
250368+0 records in
250368+0 records out



On a Windows XP or Windows 2000 PC, use either the Norton Ghost utility or
the dd command shown previously.

Discussion
One of the tasks you can do to prepare for router disaster recovery is to
create an emergency PCMCIA boot media. This is a bootable media that
contains an image of a specific JUNOS software release. When you boot the
router from this media, it installs the complete router from scratch, first
doing a full reformat of the hard disk and flash, then completing a full new
install of all the JUNOS software.

Use the PCMCIA boot media in disaster recovery when a router is hosed and
you need to execute a complete reinstall from scratch. To boot from this
media, the PCMCIA must first be inserted into the slot on the Routing
Engine. When the router boots, the first thing it looks for is a PCMCIA in
the slot. If it's not there, it moves on to the flash drive. If the PCMCIA
is there, the router stops and waits for a user with console access to the
router to press Enter to continue. The router does not automatically execute
the reformat and reinstallation; you must tell it to do so. That way, if
someone inserts the PCMCIA in the slot by mistake, the router doesn't format
and reinstall when you didn't plan for it to do so.

The J-series router follows the same procedure but uses a compact flash card
instead of a PCMCIA card. This recipe shows the commands to use for a 256-MB
compact flash.J-series install media are also available for other sizes,
including 128, 512, and 1,024 MB.

If so, I do not have any idea how I can get 'JUNOS install
media'. What is it?
What types of PCMCIA card supproted on M7i, how I must format this PCMCIA
card, e.t.c.

Thanks!

[nachocheeze]

When I got my latest Juniper, they send me a copy of JunOS on compact
flash ready for emergency use, but you should be able to create one of
your own if you have a copy of JunOS, as the hardware media is nothing
propriatary.

It is simpy a SanDisk 128MB CompactFlash chip inserted into a SanDisk
Flash-to-PCMCIA adapter.

The JunOS install media file is one of the other options available when downloading JunOS software. Having just looked, they seem to have re-arranged things to make it easier to find. At the top of the third section of the download list (Install Media) is an item "M-series and T-series Install Media <https://download.juniper.net/software/junos/8.2R2.4/install-media-8.2R2.4-domestic> ". This is what you need to create a PCMCIA boot card.

I think the general recommendation is a SanDsk 128MB card, but I expect larger cards would also work. If you have a new card then the process you quoted will put all the necessary formatting on there - it uses the 'dd' command to replace the whole card contents including the partition table etc.

Hope this helps

I've also successully used WinImage on Windows to write the install
image to a SanDisk CF card followed by putting into a PCMCIA adapter
then into the router to boot from.

The install media is available on the support website with proper
login credentials.

www.juniper.net-->Support-->Download Software

Then look under "JUNOS Software" for the right version and for the
right load, Canada/US or Worldwide etc.

Yes, that is the procedure. You need to have a valid service contract
with Juniper to download the Install Media. If you do, then go to the
Software Download area of the JTAC website and select the JUNOS link.
In there, you should be presented with several options, one of which is
the Install Media.

Hi Yevgeniy,

Actually, the jbundle image should not be used for an upgrade. The release
notes state this at the beginning of the instructions for the upgrade on
M-Series devices:

"When upgrading or downgrading the JUNOS software, always use the jinstall
package. Use other packages (such as the jbundle package) only when so
instructed by a Juniper Networks support representative."

That's from
http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/software/junos/junos81/rn-sw-81/rn-upgrade.h
tml#rn-upgrade.

Basically, you should always use the jinstall package for any upgrade, as
the release notes say. You can use the jbundle for some specific things,
like adding SSH to a router that was previously installed with worldwide
code, but in this case you used the correct commands.

From the boot messages it seems that the router isn't able to find the JUNOS

image on the compactflash. The installation somehow wasn't completely
successful.

Humor me, if you will, and type:

/boot/loader

... at that "boot:" prompt. Copy in here whatever it says if the unit
doesn't come up.

Regards,
Tim
