In Case of
Problems With
the Software
Upgrade
This section tells you what to do if the software upgrade fails due to
interruptions or if you see error messages while rebooting the switch
as part of the upgrade process.
Interruptions during the download process
Interrupting a software download (for example, rebooting the switch
or disconnecting the power cord) creates files of 0 bytes. Attempts to
download again will not succeed because the download process
cannot write over these files.
If you encounter these problems:
1. Log in to the switch.
2. Manually delete the firmware file by entering:
/FILE/DELETE firmware
3. Download the firmware again.
