Replacing a boot device in a controller
The boot device stores a primary and secondary set of system files (also called the boot image) that the system uses
when it boots. The boot device is not a hot-swappable field-replaceable unit (FRU).
The following error messages on the system console indicate that the boot media may have failed:
Unrecoverable fsck error messages while the AltaVault OS is booting.
Example
Could not load fat://boot0/AV/image1/vmlinuz:Device not found
ERROR: Error booting OS on: 'boot0' file: fat://boot0/mars/image1/vmlinuz (boot0,fat)
Autoboot of PRIMARY image failed. Device not found (-6)
Unrecoverable write errors messages
Alerts from mDir service concerning configuration backup (configbkp) or boot device.
Replacing the boot device involves keeping track of current system image, shutting down the system cleanly, removing
the old boot media from the controller, installing the new boot device, copy system files to the new boot device, and
rebooting the system.
Note:
Re-installing the OS is not a supported procedure in this release. An
Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA)
is
required for replacing a boot device in a controller. Contact technical support to help you determine if you need to replace this field-
replaceable unit (FRU) and to assist you during the replacement procedure.
