5120 EI upgrade via IMC problems
Hello,
I'm trying to upgrade a 5120 EI from version 2215 to 2220p02 by using IMC 5.2
I have done 2 tests.
Upgrading the switches with the same software without using IMC works. So the bin file could not be the problem.
With irf (2 members):
Upgrade seems to work for IMC but errors reporting on the console:
%Jun 19 14:31:04:448 2013 e98-1 DEVM/5/LOAD_FINISHED: Board has finished loading file on Chassis 0 Slot 2.
%Jun 19 14:31:58:778 2013 e98-1 MEM/4/WARNING: -Slot=2;
ALERT: memory exhausted!! GATE1 detected!
Total:70235600 bytes
Free:4192700 bytes
Standalone:
Error reporting in IMC: "The device cannot recognize the uploaded device software"
If antybody knows what the problem is please let me know.
I have also attached the console log with the error reporting for the IRF and a screenshot of the error in IMC for the standalone switch
Thanks,
Philippe

Re: 5120 EI upgrade via IMC problems
I also get the
Error reporting in IMC: "The device cannot recognize the uploaded device software"
As I have no trust in this, I maually apply the update of the boot-loader and the bootrom on the device. Then it works.
As a result, iMC is just a TFTP server to upload the files

Re: 5120 EI upgrade via IMC problems
Maybe it's caused because of the small flash storage on these switches? I can't put two images on one switch.

Re: 5120 EI upgrade via IMC problems
It is not related to the flash size, IMC would just overwrite the existing image (after all, it just works with an IRF of 2 systems).
So I believe this is just a bug and needs to be fixed ...
The only alternative (workaround until a fix is available) would be to define a CLI script, which just works, but lacks decent error handling/reporting.
A working CLI Configuration Template I made for the above versions is:
delete /unreserved ${bootrom-filename}^|^
y^|^>
tftp ${imc-ip} get ${bootrom-filename}^|^>
bootrom update file ${bootrom-filename} slot 1^|^
y^|^>
delete /unreserved ${bootrom-filename}^|^
y^|^>
tftp ${imc-ip} get ${firmware-filename} main.bin^|^
y^|^>
With the compliance center feature you can check the current versions and then schedule a reload.
Attached 2 (very basic I know) docs with some screenshots of the CLI Template and the compliance center scripts.
The reports from the compliance center can be exported into a CSV file for easy reporting in excel.
Hope this helps,
Best regards,Peter.
