Appendix E – Emergency Recovery Process
Officially, Appendix C of the HP ProCurve Series 3500yl Switches, Series 5400zl Switches,
6200yl Switch, and Series 8200zl Switches Management and Configuration Guide details how to
recover from such a condition by using an XModem download process through the serial console
port.
Unofficially, the XModem download recovery process is too slow for recovering a system during
a professional services delivery so the following unsupported workaround is offered to the
reader. The management module uses a standard, full-sized 128 MB compact flash (CF) card to
store its switch software images and configuration information. If the management modules are
removed and one of the CF cards is disconnected from its management module and placed in a
PCMCIA or USB CF card reader its contents would display similar to the following:
This is the same content as would be seen using the ROM Monitor lsdev, cd /cfa0, and ls
commands.
