  • 1.  Reset HP A5120 24E1 switch

    Posted Dec 06, 2012 05:04 AM

    Hello,

     

    I have this switch which is faling to boot properly. The first error I observed was:

    Loading error in CRC checksum
    No correct file to boot

     

    When I tried to reset switch it failed. Now I am thinking of formatting switch then downlaoding the OS from a fucntioning switch and upload it to this one. Anyone with the steps to do this?

     

    It will be highly appreciated


    #boot
    #HP5120

    If you interrupt the boot process with a serial console cable connected, you can upload a new OS image via xmodem. I use a Linux system with minicom for this, but Windows Hyperterminal should work as well.

    Don't be surprised if you upload a new image and the same problem persists. Images are checked when they are loaded and a corrupt image should be rejected before it is loaded into flash memory; therefore you probably have faulty flash memory and will end up needing to replace the switch.
