TMOS Upgrade from 10.2.4 to 11.4.1

Hi,

 

I'm trying to upgrade LTM 3400 from 10.2.4 to 11.4.10 using tmsh, but it fails:

 

[root@f5-2:Standby] images tmsh root@f5-2(Standby)(tmos) show sys software status

 

Sys::Software Status Volume Product Version Build Active Status

 

CF1.1 none none none no complete HD1.1 none none none no complete HD1.2 BIG-IP 10.2.4 577.0 yes complete

 

root@f5-2(Standby)(tmos) install sys software image BIGIP-11.4.1.608.0.iso volume HD1.1 root@f5-2(Standby)(tmos) show sys software status

 

Sys::Software Status

 

Volume Product Version Build Active Status

 

CF1.1 none none none no complete HD1.1 none 11.4.1 608.0 no failed (Can't find requested disk HD1.) HD1.2 BIG-IP 10.2.4 577.0 yes complete

 

I tried to delete HD1.1 with delete sys software volume HD1.1 but it doesn't work (err lind 2557 Failed to delete volume).

 

I tried to upgrade tmos/delete volume with webUi but it failed.

 

I'm stuck with this and I would appreciate if someone could help me.

    Thank you Salim, I haven't thought about the obsolescence of the 3400.

    Hi,
I tried to upgrade two BigIP an 3600 (v10.2.1) and an 1600 (v10.2.0).
And I have got the same problem.
I can't delete a volume, I can't create a volume, I can't install the new version on an existing volume!!

list sys software volume
sys software volume HD1.1 {
        basebuild 355.0
        build 355.0
        media {
            HD1.1 {
                media hd
                size default
           }
      }
      product BIG-IP
      status "failed to delete volumeset"
      version 9.4.8
    }
    sys software volume HD1.2 {
        active
        active-requested
        basebuild 1707.0
        build 1707.0
        media {
            HD1.2 {
                default-boot-location
                media hd
                size default
            }
        }
    product BIG-IP
    status complete
    version 10.2.0
}
sys software volume HD1.3 {
    status "failed to create volumeset"
}

install sys software image BIGIP-11.4.1.608.0.iso volume HD1.1
01020036:3: The requested mcp_software_desired (HD1.1) was not found.

The installed version is 10.2.0 / 10.2.1 , and I want install the version 11.4.1

    Hi,

     

    I'am also encountering a problem to update from 10.2.4 to 11.4.1 on a 1600 hardware.

     

    Problem is located on partition creation.

     

    Sys::Software Status Volume Product Version Build Active Status

     

    HD1.3 none none none no failed to create volumeset

     

    HD1.4 none none none no failed to create volumeset

     

    I have used the foillowing command : create sys software volume HD1.4

     

    Thanks for feedbacks.
