CAUTION:
If you are upgrading an S8300 primary controller that has LSPs registered to it, the LSPs
must be upgraded before the primary controller. (You can use the SAT command, list
media-gateway, to see if there are LSPs registered to the S8300.)
Perform the following procedures if you are upgrading an S8300 that is configured as a primary

upgrade or to enable it after an upgrade.
