Displaying Information About the FPD Image Package
You can use the show fpd package command to find out which SPAs are supported with your current
Cisco IOS XR software release, which FPD image package you need for each SPA and what the
minimum hardware requirements are for the SPA modules.

SPA FPD Image Upgrade
To determine which FPD images on a SPA require an upgrade, the system compares the current FPD
image version for each individual SPA in the router with the minimum required FPD version required by
the current Cisco IOS software release. An FPD upgrade is required if at least one FPD image on one of
the SPAs in the router does not meet the minimum version requirements for that particular Cisco IOS XR
software image.
Typical reasons to upgrade FPD images include:
• Migrating to a newer Cisco IOS XR software release
After you migrate to a new Cisco IOS XR software release, the system notifies you to if it is
necessary to perform an upgrade.
