RE: Reloading VIP [7:52380]
This link is for the single slot reload feature, but I have never seen any type of command to actually execute the single slot reload, this may just be a feature that the router can use to reload only a single problem card automatically in the event that it finds it has to reload that card. Anyone have anything to add to this, I have always been curious? Of course you could do an online removal and insertion by removing the VIP, waiting one or two minutes, and then putting it back in. This works for me about 80% of the time, the other 20% the router will start to do things that require it to be reloaded, so I only schedule VIP OIR during a maintenance window, or of course unscheduled in an extreme emergency. I have heard they remedied a lot of the problems with OIR in later IOS releases, can anyone confirm that? http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios120/120newft/120 limit/120s/120s13/slcr.htm -Original Message- From: Chris Headings [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, August 30, 2002 2:22 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Reloading VIP [7:52380] Is there anyway to manually reload a single VIP card without having to reboot the router?

Re: Reloading VIP [7:52380]
Yes from the if-console x you can connect to the VIP and reload it. Since this is not really supported I tried it and though the RSPs never reloaded nor changed status, (master/slave) there was about a minute outage and I had lots of tracebacks and other ugly messages in the log. If a production net you best get a maintanence window as your mileage may vary! Dave Chris Headings wrote: Is there anyway to manually reload a single VIP card without having to reboot the router?

Re: Reloading VIP [7:52380]
There is no command, this command automatically reloads the line card microcode in the event of a single line card failure where in the past a complete c-bus reset occured. In my previous post I mentioned you can reset the VIP from the if-console and I had SLCR enabled which does make the reload quicker but it still burped, though I am running beat code. It was better than a complete reload of the box though as far as downtime is concerned.
