FAS 2554 SP Update to 2.8P1 fails

[hochschuleda]

Hi,

fas2500-01 SP online true 2.7 
fas2500-02 SP online true 2.7 

SP 2500-02> sp update http://webserver/temp/SP_FW.tar.gz

NOTE: In most cases, ONTAP will automatically update the SP firmware with a
compatible firmware version in the background and no action is required from
you.

Manually installing the SP firmware using this command may result in
incompatible combinations of ONTAP and SP firmware.

Use of this command is not recommended.

Im pretty sure i have the right file from the Netapp site, and it should be compatible according to the matrix. What else can i do ?

After finding out on reddit Netapp:

Switching for Firefox from Chrome to Download the package, worked for me. Since then its installing. Strange but okay. 

Happy updating 🙂
