md5sum bad

buckmaster60 — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 06:18:10 GMT

Downloaded multiple times both the workstation and esx version of ontap 8.1.1. when i check the md5sum it does not match what is posted from netapp? i don't think it is my downloads as i download vmware file some being 2.3 gb and they download fine.

I have never had a problem with a program called FASTSUM (http://www.fastsum.com/).

Make sure you are checking for the correct file, in my case the file was '811_q_image.tgz'.

The checksum list on the Netapp site contains checksum details for '811_e_image.tgz' (think it was 'e') and other zip files.

NOW site is down for maintenance so I can't check right now.

Thanks Craig for the reply.

From http://support.netapp.com/NOW/download/tools/simulator/ontap/8.X/ this is the md5sum for

MD5 Checksums

vsim-DOT811-7m.tgz
- c6868c6ff93ae0616b7e7c63127a6345

this is my md5sum e6400e48e6691764978f2ad3d3d99a68 vsim-DOT811-7m.tgz

Downloaded multiple times with the same md5sum?
