This didn't make it into the VNswitch v1.1A release notes: Note that it is not possible to upgrade a VNswitch EE/EF/EX from v1.0 to v1.1A using the "LOAD REMOTE" command when the module is in the hub and you are accessing the console via the hub re-direct option. This is due to a current incompatibility with the MAM pre-v5.0 firmware console wherein characters are replicated following <CR>. Since LOAD REMOTE is a prompting dialog, this duplicate input problem will mess up your console sequence. As a workaround you should avoid LOAD REMOTE via the hub console and either: - do the upgrade from a telnet session - use RELOAD command with a pre-configured load server/file location This problem will disappear with MAM V5.0. /bob

| 743.1 | Did it with T5.0.XX MAM code.... | NETCAD::BATTERSBY | Thu Feb 06 1997 13:02 | 8 | |
That's odd, I was able to do this earlier this week running either
MAM T5.0.30 or T5.0.32 code.
I had three EE's in a hub, re-directed to each and upgraded each
from an in-band front port. Are the T5.0.XX considered pre-v5.0.
If the T5.0.XX aren't considered pre-v5.0, then ignore my ramblings. :-)

| 743.2 | T5.X.X should be ok | IROCZ::STETSON | Fri Feb 07 1997 16:33 | 5 | |
Sorry I wasn't clear. I should have probably said V4.2 or earlier. The fix needed in the MAM for console redirect came in quite early with the T5.x.x code. /bob | |||||
| 743.3 | Yup ok... v4.2 or older got it :-) | NETCAD::BATTERSBY | Fri Feb 07 1997 16:40 | 6 | |
