MSA1000 San Switch
On occasion I have gotten "After Firmware Download it is highly recommended t" I am assuming the rest is "to reboot the switch".
Figuring there was an issue when the switch firmware was updated I attempted to redo it. But unlike other switches I've done it returns a firmware not found. Here is my process, which I just did on another switch and verified it works:
MSA1000-switch1:admin> firmwaredownload
Server Name or IP Address [host]: 10.11.xxx.xx
User Name [user]: xxx
File Name [/usr/switch/firmware]: v3.2.1c
Protocol (RSHD or FTP) [rshd]: FTP
Password:
File not found.
MSA1000-switch1:admin>
(I replaced the IP with x's for security and x'd out the user name but they are correct on the real attempt)
Switch Bad???

Re: MSA1000 San Switch
is this on the console port of the switch, or through the network?
If console port, check network connectivity between the switch and 10.11.xxx.xx
eg from 10.11.xxx.xx try to telnet/ssh/http to the switch.
From another host/PC try "ftp 10.11.xxx.xx " using the same account
in this ftp session :
- do a "ls" for the default directory
- and "cd /usr/switch/firmware" + "ls"
to check if "v3.2.1c" exists there and is accessible.

It is obvious the switch is working but how well and why it is constantly committing configuration or why it is throwing the garbage and freezing up is what I'm attempting to determine.

Re: MSA1000 San Switch
this way you do NOT access the switch over the network!
You access the DECserver over the network and access the switch over it's serial console.
=> check again if you have network connectivity (directly) between laptop and switch.
what ip-address does the switch has?
can you ping this address from your laptop.

Re: MSA1000 San Switch
- remove all fiber cables
- reset the switch to it's factory default configuration
- hard reset the swith by pulling it from the chassis (and remounting)
- check if problem remains
= if no problems
- reload the switch configuration
- check if problem returns
= if problem returns, repeat reset, load config step by step untill offending config item is found.
= if stable
- reconnect the fibre cables.

Re: MSA1000 San Switch
This morning I received another switch that is doing that exact same thing and I am getting the exact same results. I even put both switches together in the MSA to see what would happen, nothing happened MSA reported the same catastrophic hardware failure. So both switches are bad.
