Symptom: If there is an interruption to the upgrade process on a given module during an upgrade
to Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 3.1(2), the install all command will fail. This may result in a
condition where some modules and supervisors are running SAN-OS 3.1(2) and the remainder of
modules in the chassis are running an older version of SAN-OS. You may not be able to execute the
install all command again to upgrade the remaining modules to SAN-OS 3.1(2).
If you issue the show install all status command, you may see the following types of messages in
the install logs:
Module X: Upgrading Bios/loader/bootrom.
Warning: please do not remove or power off the module at this time.
-- FAIL. Return code 0x40710001 (BIOS versions are identical).
CAUTION: The BIOS/loader/bootrom of above module may be in corrupted state. Please
try programming it again and DO NOT reboot without programming it successfully,
otherwise you have to manually take out the flash from the card and program it in a
BIOS programming station.
