I am upgrading the firmware on a G350 out of the box from 25.29.0 to 25.33.0. I see it on my tftp server downloading to the G350 and I also see it on the command "show download software status 10". But when the transfer is complete i get in the Last warning comment of the G350 stating Lifetime validation test failed. Has anyone ever had this issue. I have run into this instance now on 2 different G350's. Never before just upgrading the firmware. I have done 100's and have never run into this problem in a simple TFTP transfer. Resetting the device does not help. Any and all suggestions welcomed.
 
Actually, I had that happen yesterday for the first time too. I tried it twice then, noticed that it was in boot bank a. rebooted and I was up on 25.33...
 
I tried that as well. I did end up reseting the device and it finally came up on the correct load. Thanks. Have you had any experience with SNMP vulnerability with the S8300's, G350's or G700's. I am setting the SNMP community read-only string and when I do a show SNMP it doesn't change the string it just shows ***** in the community field. I posted this request already but no responses. Any info?
 
I was able to change the string, it shows *'s no matter what.
