5500 free flash
I tried to update my 5500 yesterday only to find out I don't have enough free space in flash. I kept getting error writing local file when I did the ftp command. I did a dir and found an old firmware version. I did a delete s4b03_01_06s56.app (or similar filename) and then did a dir again. The flash wasn't freed. I did a save and then rebooted and the flash still says 4106KB free which isn't enough for the upgrade. What did I need to do to free the flash?
Thanks,

Re: 5500 free flash
Did you deleted the file using the command "delete
To delete a file without store it in the recycle bin the command is "delete /unreserved

Re: 5500 free flash
Ok, I just had the following... I forgot to use the /unreserved option...
Note: This is actually for an A7500 (JD240B) switch, not the 5500, but its comware, is its the same issue
When I look, its in the recycle bin (sort of) but I have no idea how to actually delete it out of there as none of the previous delete commands work... Clues? (and yes, I know I can't make that big an upgrade... sigh)

Re: 5500 free flash
Ok, I managed to answer my own question. I'm so used to the manual being useless that its not my first resource anymore... but in this case...
<LHR-CORE-SW>reset recycle-bin
Clear flash:/~/7500-cmw520-r6708p03-us.app ?[Y/N]:y
Clearing files from flash may take a long time. Please wait...
...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
%Cleared file flash:/~/7500-cmw520-r6708p03-us.app...

Re: 5500 free flash
I know it is not an intuitive command, but manual seems clear to me:
Look for Fundamentals configuration guide on support site.
This is a sample direct link to the pdf:
Look on page 97-98 (File operations, deleting files, recover files and empty recycle-bin).
Hope this helps.
I do agree that the HP support site should better organize their docs, by release/date/modules etc. Right now all wireless module config guides are stored together with the chassis config guides, which I personally find confusing.
Best regards,Peter.
