os-6250 upgrade

Post by 12111 »

Hi, (sorry for my English)

Recently upgrade the switch, the switch works correctly.

But I have a question, that serves this file? KFdiag.img The version is different from the others.

When downloading files to update the switch this file is not included.

May cause some kind of problems this file to be different versions?

=> show microcode
Package Release Size Description
-----------------+---------------+--------+-----------------------------------
KFbase.img 6.6.4.244.R01 16231207 Alcatel-Lucent Base Software
KFos.img 6.6.4.244.R01 2585572 Alcatel-Lucent OS
KFeni.img 6.6.4.244.R01 5261945 Alcatel-Lucent NI software
KFsecu.img 6.6.4.244.R01 603721 Alcatel-Lucent Security Management
KFdiag.img 6.6.1.679.R01 2144790 Alcatel-Lucent Diagnostic Software

thanks

KFDiag.img (or KDiag GDiag in other Switch types) are the default Diagnose images that are used on the switches to test all ports/hardware before the switchz leaves the alcatel factory. It is never used again, there is no (known) way to diagnose for yourself.

You can remove the KFDiag image to save space, but you will have no problems if you let the image there (it is not used).

Whilst you have updated from 6.6.1? to 6.6.4 - have you upgraded miniboot and fpga as well ? (There is a fpga update so that the pushbutton on the back works again)

Ok ok.
To delete the file can be made of this method ?
rm KFDiag.img

I updated Uboot / miniboot and fpga following the procedure.
