Issue with downloading image file to node

[MARK_SAUNDERS]

We have  a fresh built 4 node cluster with just aggr0 and vol0 nothing else has yet been done with it. I have been asked to upgrade it to 8.3 to allow for some testing. The 3rd party guys have left me the upgrade details but I am having some issues getting the image file onto the nodes.

Using the command as follows to update the image on node 02

system node image update -node ##########01-02 -package tftp://###.###.###.###/Netapp/83RC2_q_image.tgz -replace-package true

This connects and the tftp download progress can be seen when this reaches completion (On the tftp server the transfer shows as successful) the install fails

Install Failed.
Failed to download package from tftp://###.###.###.###/Netapp/83RC2_q_image.tgz.

The bytes transfered 482569420 is the file size of the original image file, this has been redownloaded hash checked etc so I am now a bit stuck with what to try next.

Are there any logs for this that might shed some light onto why the transfer fails ?

See if you have the package locally:

system node image package show -node *

If you do, run update from the local package.

system node image update -node * -package 83RC2_q_image.tgz -set-default true

If not, try not specifying the -replace-package parameter

[MARK_SAUNDERS]

system node image package show -node * is showing the packages with a .downloading extension

It may just not like your tftp server.  Try pulling it from an http server.

If that doesn't work, md5 the copy on the filer to see if its intact. 

set diag

systemshell * md5 /mroot/etc/software/83RC2_q_image.tgz.downloading

set admin

Do we have the command to pull it from the http server. "system node image get" command is not recognized in 9.7P8.

This thread is from 7 years ago - please review this document for the correct commands for current ONTAP - https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap/upgrade/task_download_and_install_ontap_software_image.html#for-automatic-nondisruptive-upgrade-andu

Mark did you ever get this working via TFTP as I'm getting the same issue with uploading 8.3

Thanks

I got SP's to successfully upgrade using the following command:

system service-processor image update -node <node_name> -update-type network-full -package 306-03929_A0_FAS9000_AFF-A700_4.1P2_SP_FW.zip -clear-logs true

Ensure that the above package is valid when you run a system node image show -node <node_name>
