Having a problem downloading updated from hp ftp. CMC displaying "An error occurreds while reading the upgrade configuration file. if the file was from a web connection, click to Try Downloading Again, otherwise recreate your media image."

tried it multiple times. how do I recreate media image? what media image it is referring to?

thanks in advance

Hi,

You can always try to go to ftp://up_p4k:Extreme1@ftp.usa.hp.com/ and verify which files are missing...

The destination directory on your server/PC (where the CMC is installed) is C:\Program Files (x86)\HP\P4000\UI\downloads.

Sure verify the upgrades.xml file...

Bart

I had that same message after a successful download of the update files. Only when returning to the download latter would give this message. However If I manually direct CMC update to the download location (default path given) and click okay, the package is checked and will give okay. the CMC 9.0.01 was installed fine.

From the downloads directory you can try to install the CMC 9.5 version manually... Reconnect to your MG and try downloading again?

Meanwhile I updated 3 clusters already and had no issues...

My download was from okt 5th update CMS 9.0.01 build 0165. Just read that version 9.5 is available for download and found out that I cannot download the update as the error message does not go away with try download again. I renamed the download directory and created an empty new one. Does not solve it.

Help file does not give another solution for this error than download xml again. Manually? as download again does not do the trick.

Hi Bart,

Is your download link correct? Cannot download from it.

TIA,

So the right one is ftp://up_p4k:Extreme1@ftp.usa.hp.com/

BTW you can find it in the preferences.txt file under C:\Users\yourusername\.storage_system

I am now downloading the 9.5 CMC install file from https://h20392.www2.hp.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=P4000SW

Hope that solves it.

TIA,

Installed the CMC 9.5. Update files are now downloading normally.

I had the same problem... To fix it, I had to go into the download directory and delete all the files in the folder and then re-download everything. That worked, but it said I had about 5.6GB to download. Fortunately it went at about my full bandwidth of 35Mb or it would have taken me days... as is, it took a while.

HP confirmed that there was a problem on their site. It is fixed now and downloaded.

Deleting all the files in the download directory solved my problem as well.
