Chuck, Have you still got the original image in the secondary?
Also, do you have two management cards? If this is the case remove one of the cards and boot of the secondary. I might have missed this but if you are moving from a version 3 to 4 coipy all the files over. Also stay away from the unified image and load all the files seperately If you have time can you send the sh flash and sh ver command ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] <[email protected]> To: Chuck Ufarley <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] <[email protected]> Sent: Tue Aug 11 00:15:23 2009 Subject: Re: [f-nsp] Line Cards not Booting on NI-MLX-4 The only think I would say is double check the version numbers. Make sure you are booting on the correct flash (primary, secondary).

I've also uploaded the fpga bundle. I've got a 20 port copper card running, but only if I issue the lp cont-boot no-sync command every reload. Otherwise, it too goes into interactive mode, claiming an application mismatch. These images are from 4000ca, the same directory, the same zip file. It's completely bizarre, to me. Anyone have other ideas? Please? Thanks again. --Chuck On Mon, Aug 10, 2009 at 3:24 PM, Daniel Faubel <[email protected]> wrote: Guessing you did all of this? 6. Go to config mode and set the module for interactive mode: NetIron(config)# lp boot system interactive <slot number> 7. Insert the new module (module should boot to interactive mode). 8. Load all required images for the line modules that match the current version loaded on the chassis. For example: copy tftp lp <ip-addr> xmlb03100l.bin monitor <slot number> copy tftp lp <ip-addr> xmlprm03100l.bin boot <slot number> copy tftp lp <ip-addr> xmlp03100l.bin primary <slot number> copy tftp lp <ip-addr> pbifsp2_03100l.bin fpga-pbif <slot number> copy tftp lp <ip-addr> xppsp2_03100l.bin fpga-xpp <slot number> copy tftp lp <ip-addr> xgmacsp2_03100l.bin fpga-xgmac <slot number> 9. Go to config mode and turn off the module for interactive mode: NetIron(config)# no lp boot system interactive <slot number> 10. Exit config mode and reboot the module: NetIron# power-off lp <slot number> NetIron# power-on lp <slot number> Daniel Faubel Network Manager Net2EZ - Managed Data Centers 310-426-9933 x1 NOC 310-426-9933 x110 Direct [email protected] ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Chuck Ufarley Sent: Monday, August 10, 2009 2:51 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [f-nsp] Line Cards not Booting on NI-MLX-4 This is a fascinating problem with these NI-MLXs, because really, no two cards seem to act alike. I'm trying to configure a second NI-MLX, and I'm getting this response, now: WARN: LP slot 1's application image version ( 3 3 0 6) doesn't match that of the MP ( 4 0 0 3) - put LP in interactive mode. Updating fpgas for the card doesn't work. Trying to get the line card to boot from from the mp primary doesn't work. Pulling in and out of interactive mode doesn't work. Updating ironware and monitor/boot image separately doesn't work Reloading the entire image and then loading fpgas doesn't work. Each tried several times. Has anyone else seen these things as just unreliable? I can't get a simple line card to just come up. Help, as usual, is very much appreciated. --Chuck On Mon, Aug 3, 2009 at 3:35 PM, Asoka De Saram <[email protected]> wrote: Chuck, Do you have the latest fpga images in these two cards? If not boot them in to interactive mode and download them from a tftp server.

They keep looping through a "CARD_STATE_BOOT" "CARD_STATE_SW_LOADED " "CARD_STATE_SYNC_FID" loop, but won't come up active. I can't update the lp files unless the card comes up. I've tried this: Config t lp boot system interactive [slot#] exit wr mem Power-off lp [slot#] Power-on lp [slot#] lp boot system mp primary [slot#] and the lp images load from the mp, but they don't seem to stick, because the line card doesn't go active. Do I need to issue a "no lp boot system interactive" + new "wr mem" + reload command to get it up and running? It doesn't seem to work. Am I missing something obvious. Help is extremely appreciated. I'm a little stumped right now.
