Firmware download issues
5
Symptom
Cannot upgrade directly to v6.3.0.
Probable cause and recommended action
If the switch is running Fabric OS v6.1.0 or earlier, you are not allowed to upgrade directly to v6.3.0
because of the “one-version” rule. Upgrade your switch to Fabric OS version v6.2.0 before
upgrading to v6.3.0. The “one-version” rule also applies to downgrading.
Symptom
Server is inaccessible or firmware path is invalid.
Probable cause and recommended action
•
The FTP or SCP server’s host name is not known to the switch.
Verify with your network administrator that the switch has access to the FTP server.
Verify the path to the FTP or SCP server is accessible from the switch. For more information on
checking your FTP or SCP server, see
Chapter 4, “Configuration”
.
•
The USB path is not correct.
If your platform supports a USB memory device, verify that it is connected and running. Verify
that the path name is correct by using the usbStorage -l command.
Example of usbStorage -l command
switch:admin>
usbstorage -l
