conduit 5.1.2 upgrade – not enough space available

[bdbuysse@gmail.com]

Hi,

I’m trying to upgrade to conduit 5.1.2 firmware (from 5.0.1-AEP) on a MTCDT-LWV2-247A and am getting an error “Failed to start the upgrade. There is not enough space available on the device to perform the firmware upgrade.”

admin@mtcdt:~$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/root 232.0M 107.0M 125.0M 46% /
devtmpfs 115.2M 8.0K 115.2M 0% /dev
tmpfs 123.3M 476.0K 122.9M 0% /run
tmpfs 123.3M 121.6M 1.7M 99% /var/volatile
/dev/mtdblock6 8.0M 1.3M 6.7M 16% /var/config
/dev/mtdblock7 8.0M 512.0K 7.5M 6% /var/oem

The conduit_5.1.2_upgrade_signed.bin file is 112.1MB. On the /dev/root it seems like I am close to having enough to get by, but am getting the error.

Any guidance on what can safely be purged?

The upgrade “.bin” file gets up loaded to the tmpfs in /tmp which is a link to /var/volatile. The /var/volatile directory appears to be full:

tmpfs 123.3M 121.6M 1.7M 99% /var/volatile

A reboot may clean up most of the stuff in /var/volatile. Then try the upgrade.

Thank you…that worked. I had 106 days of uptime before the logs seem to have filed up the /var/volitile mount.

admin@mtcdt:/var/volatile/log$ uptime
18:55:07 up 106 days, 6:42, 1 user, load average: 0.46, 0.64, 0.62
