SRX

Hi

My SRX 210's compact flash ran out of space while upgrading and is stuck at the db> prompt. The image is used is: junos-srxsme-12.1X45-D15.5-domestic.tgz. I am not able to get to the command prompt, just the db>  and loader> prompt. Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue? 

To recover, you will have to install from boot loader prompt:

Please refer:

http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/software/junos-security/junos-security10.2/junos-security-admin-guide/topic-installing-software-boot-loader-usb.html

JTAC recommended software version for SRX-210 is 11.4R9 unless hardware type is SRX-210H2.

Is there any specific reason for you moving to 12.1X45?

Regards,

Raveen

Hi

I tried that but it fails. It reboots to debug prompt. I forgot to delete the previous junos images. I can boot to the loader prompt. 

No reason to move to the last image. It is just the one I downloaded.

You can use the Reset Config button on the front panel of the SRX device to reset the device to its factory default configuration.

On doing this you would lose all configuration and log files. Can you try this?

yes.

Loading OS from boot loader using USB would usually work well!

Tried but no luck. Status light is amber, not yellow. Boots to debug prompt.

Very strange that neither install via USB from loader not factory reset did help!

LAst possible option to try is to install at u-boot via tftp method:

If installation from u-boot does not work, then open up a ticket with JTAC for further torubleshooting/RMA.

Hi

Up and running after using the TFTP solution. Thanks for all your help!

Here is a copy of the output from the install source command at the loader> prompt:
