SRX

hi all,

when i try to upgrade the 10.0 to 10.2 in SRX 100 from USB, shown can't load '/kernel' and can't load '/kernel.old'. Then i  followed the http://kb.juniper.net/InfoCenter/index?page=content&id=KB12790&actp=search&viewlocale=en_US&searchid=1290748902213&smlogin=true, when i try to using this from usb as >install --format file:///junos-srxme-10.0R3.10-domestic.tgz shown invalid url, then i tried as install  file:///junos-srxme-10.0R3.10-domestic.tgz goes to as shown following process and again i get  the same message can't load '/kernel' and can't load '/kernel.old'.

how to solve this problem, plz any one having idea share your efforts.

Hi, what is the solution, could not find the refered post. thanks i know it has been a long time

Hi,

If you unable to load the junos with normal process, then try with loader as following steps.

Loading junos with USB

Go to the loader,

Accessing the Loader Prompt

To access the Loader prompt:

1. Use console connection to connect to the device.
2. Reboot the device.

   During reboot, the following message is displayed:

   Loading /boot/defaults/loader.conf

   After this message appears, see the following prompt:

   Hit [Enter] to boot immediately, or space bar for command prompt.

3. Press the space bar to get to the Loader prompt.

   The loader> prompt appears.

4. Loader>install file:///<package_name.tgz-on USB>

Even if you unable to load the junos then follow the step

1. Firstly, take snapshot from the similar kind of devices, if you want to load junos for SRX210 then take snapshot from the SRX210 of running device with command "request system snapshot media usb factory partition slice"
   
2. Go to loader prompt as above, The loader> prompt appears.
   
3. Then inter command bootmedia usb
4. Now device runs with junos from USB
5. After the accessing device, run the command
6. request system snapshot media internal factory partitionn slice
7. Now  junos image with loader is copied to internal flash of device
8. Then Finally, reboot the device from internal image and loader with command request system reboot media internal.

hi,

I try to recover my srx650 using this method. After the device run junos from USB I try request system snapshot media internal factory partitionn slice but failed to copy to internal flash of the device

with this error message:

error: internal (/dev/ad0) is too small. Size must be atleast 1GB

I also tried the first method - loading junos from USB but also failed when I run 

Loader>install file:///<package_name.tgz-on USB>

here is the following error:

tty: not found
Installing disk0:/junos-srxsme-10.4R6.5-domestic.tgz
Computing slice and partition sizes for /dev/ad0 ...
The target media /dev/ad0 (400396800 bytes) is too small.
The installation cannot proceed
ERROR: Target media is too small

how can I clear the target media so that the size is enough to install junos?

Thanks.

Please verify the space availabe in your /dev/ either  using df -h in FreeBSD mode or show system storage commands if the device.

hi,

here is the output of df-h

seems that the target media /dev/ad0s1a has available space 385M...how can i clear the space so i am able to recover the junos?

regards.

Hi,

The output shows that there is sufficient space in device and it is booting from internally. Pls be ensure that you have to snapshot from the same model of SRX650 to load the snapshot to new sx650 facing the issue. For more Tshoot pls run some commands

>show system snapshot media usb: if the running srx650 is booting form usb 

>show system snapshot media internal: if the running srx650 is booting form internal device

>show chassis routing-engine

>show system storage

>show version

could it be the internal flash is corrupted? that is why i cant load snapshot from usb to internal media..

Hi,

is there any drive /dev/ad....... in problem facing SRX ?

Output shows that your usb is partition da0....... and found one more /dev/da1....... pls verify ls /dev/ad*

%ls /dev/da* (on problem srx)

If there is no such ad0..... drive  look  for it   > request system snapshot media internal slice alternate

If you have still issue, let me know how you took snapshot .As per you srx are in HA.

If there is no such ad0..... drive  look  for it   > request system snapshot media internal slice alternate

 

If you have still issue, let me know how you took snapshot .As per you srx are in HA.

hi,

 

1) here is the output of ls /dev on the problem srx

2) root@FirewallPRI> request system snapshot media internal slice alternate
node0:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
error: Snapshot to alternate slice cannot be performed as internal is not the boot media

 

 

3) i did snapshot on working srx using this command

 

request system snapshot media usb partition

 

i am using kingston 8gb thumbdrive formatted as fat32

 

Hi,

how did you take the snapshot either after configuring HA or  from standalone SRX 650 ?

If the snapshot is taken after configuring HA, it might be problem that's why try to load making standalone, if it is possible .

hi,

both srx have been configured with HA before this. I suspected the problem occured after the having power failure and only one srx can be booted properly.. the other srx stuck at loader> prompt

i try recover junos by  trying to install junos from usb using  loader>install file:/// <junosXXXXX.tgz [of course by disconnecting the problem srx from the active one first]

but failed with the following error:

Installing disk0:/junos-srxsme-10.4R6.5-domestic.tgz
Computing slice and partition sizes for /dev/ad0 ...
The target media /dev/ad0 (400396800 bytes) is too small.
The installation cannot proceed
ERROR: Target media is too small

"to load making standalone, if it is possible" --> what do you mean here..sorry i seem cant get the idea..

thanks for your response.

Regards.

Hi,

From last message, 

root@FirewallPRI> show system snapshot media internal 
node0:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

>show system snapshot media internal: if the running srx650 is booting form internal device (this is the working srx - fyi the srx is clustered environment)

Above shows that you are running HA and below conform that you are running the problem facing box with USB. So, it shows that you have snapshot from HA configured device in USB which is inserted into your prblem facing box.

"to load making standalone, if it is possible" - as up now you have in HA both box from above. So try using the standalone snapshot.

Can you post the ouput show chassis cluster status ?

hi,

here is output show chassis cluster status on active srx

the problem srx is stuck at the loader> as i am not booting up using usb currently.

Hi, 

Our SRX face the same issue .

boot stuck at 'cannot load /kernel'

I have tried to reformat cf using install --format file:///source but still fail.

I got this message:

fdisk: Failed to write sector zero
bsdlabel: Geom not found

Attach is the full log, from there it keeps rebooting.

Any idea?

Appreciate any help

Rgds,

Fauzan
