File was not found.

 Verify that the firmware file specified actually exists, or specify a new firmware file.

Firmware upload complete. The switch must be reset to activate new firmware. Reset now?

The new firmware will not be executed until the switch is reset. Resetting a switch in the fabric will cause the servers and storage systems attached to the fabric to lose communications until the switch reset is complete and the fabric has reinitialized.

 

If this is acceptable, then continue; otherwise cancel the reset operation

Firmware upload status unknown. Image has been uploaded, but confirmation from the switch was not received.

The application lost communications with the switch while the switch was unpacking the firmware image. If the problem was temporary, examine the firmware versions on the switch to verify that the firmware was unpacked correctly, or upload a new firmware image to the switch.

Unable to load firmware.

An unspecified error has occurred. Verify that the user has permissions to modify the configuration on the switch, that the switch is reachable in the fabric, and that the fabric is reachable from the user’s workstation, then retry the firmware upload.

Reverting from 1.4 firmware to 1.3 firmware will reset your switch configuration (including IP address) and should not be done without a backup of current switch configuration.  Proceed with firmware fallback?

Verify that you want to revert the firmware version from 1.4 back to 1.3, or select the correct version of firmware, then continue.

Firmware image had a bad CRC or was invalid for this type of switch.

Select a valid firmware image for this type of switch and retry the operation.

The FLASH memory on the switch may be too small for this image.

Select an appropriate firmware image for this type of switch and retry the operation.

Unable to read file.

Verify that the firmware file specified exists and is readable by the user, on a file system readable by the user, or specify a new firmware file.
