Brocade Firmware Upgrade
Hello all:
I do have some problems with upgradig my Brocade 200e Switch from firmware 5.2.2 to 5.3.0a. I just get an reply back saying release.plist not valid after runing the firmwaredownload from telnet. I also get the same error message if I'm trying from the web interface.
For Info I know that the FTP server is set up right becouse I have been able to upgrade from 5.2.1 to 5.2.2.
But now I'm stuck I also get the same error when I'm trying to upgrade to 5.3.0c
Thanks for all help

It is probably a path issue in the ftp program, if you are using 3Cdaemon supplied with the upgrade files then the path has to match or it fails. I normally set the ftp root as c:\ then extract the files to c:\ using the folder names option in winzip. This dumps all the files in a folder v5.3.0c. This should contain all the files and directories. then in telnet issue the firmwaredownload command and the path used is /v5.3.0c/release.plist
Remember in 3Cdaemon, each profile has a root directory. So point the 'anonymous profile to c:\ then save it. Or if you use a different username make sure the path is set then save the profile.

The problem was that you need to use the hole path where the files are located... So even if you point the ftp server to the right directory it's not enoght to just write release.plist you need to use the hole path to where the files are located. eks: c:\ftproot\v5.3.0c
They probably has changed this from the earlier releases such as 5.1 where I was able to upgrade to ver 5.2
But anyway now it works thanks
