Import the files into IMC. When importing, you can select either device software, or Boot Manager. Import the files separately.

Then go through the software deployment process, selecting both device software, and Boot ROM.

Don't deploy it to all 70 devices at once. Do it in batches, and test it out thoroughly first.

thank you for replay I tired that but the old Boot Manager will not delete I must login the switch and delete it,

I want ask do you mean Boot ROM = .btm file ??

If the the case I can't find the Boot ROM when I click select ? How can I make the iMC see it ??

Thank you

Yes, the Boot ROM is the *.btm file.

I don't understand " I tired that but the old Boot Manager will not delete I must login the switch and delete it"

What were the EXACT steps you went through to get to that point?

I now what was wrong never mind the " I tired that but the old Boot Manager will not delete I must login the switch and delete it,

but I now have another Problem when I update the switch it say Failed you can see it in the attachment file

it say ((The device cannot recognize the uploaded device software.)) I pretty sure I have the right software my switch is JD010A HP 4800-48G SWITCH

I download from this link:

so what is the Problem ??

Thank you

Try manually installing the software on a switch, and see what happens. You might have a corrupted download, or some other issue.

I try manually installing and work fine

Thank you

Next step is probably to try deploying it, and then look at the logs under <imc>/server/conf/log, to work out what's going on, and why it's failing.

Sorry for late replay I was busy then there was holiday,

I want ask which I check there is many file ?

Re: Can you help update in iMC ......?

LindsayHill — Thu, 25 Jul 2013 21:00:26 GMT

Look for imccfgupdm* - it might be worth trying the update again, and then looking at the latest output.

Re: Can you help update in iMC ......?

MohammadH — Sun, 28 Jul 2013 09:49:44 GMT

I can't find the file imccfgupdm in <imc>/server/conf/log ?

Re: Can you help update in iMC ......?

LindsayHill — Mon, 29 Jul 2013 06:16:25 GMT

Sorry, typo there, look for imcupgdm*

MohammadH — Mon, 29 Jul 2013 07:32:23 GMT

I have the file in the attachment can you check ?

thank you

Looking at it, it seems to go through these steps:
1/ Delete the old firmware - works OK
2/ Transfer the Boot Manager - all works OK
3/ Transfer the new firmware - transfer seems to be working, but then at the end it's saying that it can't find the file on the switch. Here's the relevant output:

2013-07-29 10:05:42.867 [INFO (0)] [THREAD(8904)] [CExecuter::exec()] Step failed, break !

If you look at the flash on that switch, can you see the new image there?

If it was my network, I'd probably be using Wireshark, and looking at the traffic between IMC and that switch, to better understand where it's failing. You may prefer to log a case - it's up to you.

Re: Can you help update in iMC ......?

MohammadH — Mon, 29 Jul 2013 08:04:48 GMT

yes i can see the file there in the switch ?!

Re: Can you help update in iMC ......?

LindsayHill — Mon, 29 Jul 2013 08:07:30 GMT

And the file size on the switch looks correct? If it is, the transfer is completing successfully,

Do you have working SNMP read-write configured for this device?

Re: Can you help update in iMC ......?

MohammadH — Mon, 29 Jul 2013 08:21:59 GMT

the file size is 13991278 kb so it correct and so the SNMP read-write it work fine.

Just saw a couple of other things that look a bit odd:

2013-07-29 09:22:06.650 [ERROR (0)] [THREAD(6052)] [CQvDBConnADP::CQvDBConnADP]Database has not connect!
2013-07-29 09:22:06.650 [ERROR (0)] [THREAD(6052)] [CQvDBConnADP::status] Isconnected failed, errorMsg:Cannot open database "icc_db" requested by the login. The login failed.

2013-07-29 09:22:24.870 [INFO (0)] [THREAD(9412)] [CQvApplication::start] call globalInit().

I'm not sure what's causing that - it might be nothing to worry about, as it's not really causing your problem here.

And it looks like SNMP Read-write isn't working:
2013-07-29 10:01:51.968 [INFO (10)] [THREAD(8904)] [CSnmpOper::iCommitOper] send snmp set packge fail.->[172.20.0.25]
2013-07-29 10:01:51.968 [INFO (0)] [THREAD(8904)] Commit snmp operation failed.

Use Wireshark, look at what's going on between IMC and the switch.

MohammadH — Mon, 29 Jul 2013 09:30:52 GMT

i use the Wireshark one before but i don't now how to use it I'm new to Wireshark very new. can you tell me how to do it.

Hi,

Try the "check access settings" in IMC first, it should test snmp read and write communities and report on the status.

Resource - Batch operation - Check Access settings - Add device, select snmp only (no need for telnet/ssh) and verify the result (with details option).

Other option is wireshark, install wireshark on the IMC server (x86/x64), start the capture and use this display filter:

(snmp.data == 2 or snmp.data == 3) and ip.addr == 1.1.1.1

Update IP to your switch IP. This filter will only show the snmp SET and RESPONSE packets.

When you see a SET packet to the switch, it should reply with a RESPONSE and inside the snmp section of the packet there should be a NOERROR status.

If you do not see an snmp response, there might be:

* acl restricting SNMP access

* wrong community string

Both of these should be checked in the switch config,

Best regards,Peter
