Note: each of them is a reloading SMU and will reload the whole router after activation. Make sure that you will issue admin install commit after router reloaded and before activating the next SMU.
3) The last step is to activate SP11 which will involve another reload. Make sure that you will issue admin install commit after router reloaded and came up.

> install activate disk0:/disk0:asr9k-px-4.3.4.sp11-1.0.0 sync
> install commit
# will reboot itself
