Set firmware upgrade issue - PBX is stuck....

[Zed071]

Hi folks

I was doing a firmware upgrade on a 3905 set the other day, and my terminal session was unexpectedly dropped in the middle of it. This froze the upgrade at the set.

Now, the console is (virtually) locked with the OVL306 error as the update routine is running in the background, but frozen and stuck.

Is there any way short of an INI to stop the process?

Thanks

Do you have another TTY configured that you can connect your laptop to? You should be able to issue the FDLC command. You could try the maintenance set.

Details:
Unable to access any overlays on call server, OVL306 given on TTY. This was the result of a failed FDLU to an M3903 telset in my case, I suspect pertinent to all M3900 range of phones however.
After accessing load 32 by using the suspension command and an FWVU is run against the affected TN you get 'PSDL IS NOT IDLE' message
Fix:
Use the suspend command to access ld 32, use fdlc to cancel the suspended command, disable & enable the affected card and re-commence a subseqent FDLU.
This time, in my case, the download was successful.

OVL0306 This Overlay can not be active during Peripheral Software Download (PSDL).
Action: 1. Wait until PSDL is complete.
2. Use the SUSP command to suspend the PSDL and load the required program
(LD xx SUSP). Use SUSP with caution.
You may have to LD32 again after using the SUSP command to gain full access

This particular set in question was served of a Remote Gateway 9150 and it is possible that the set did not respond quick enough to the request for download in the first instance which caused the download to fail on first attempt.

Thanks Firebird!

That process worked to get the system out of the OVL306 error - and do all the overnight processes at once.
