Hi all

I am on 5200. Current code is 9.1.0.2 ...trying to patch to code 9.1.0.3 - unable to

Using test utility 49.5, pass to proceed. However, having issue updating with below error:

"Failed to apply update package"

Any issue of the code?

Hi Azman,
This error is likely what’s appearing.


Given that, it seems to affect the FS5200 and FS5300, since the FS7300 and FS9500 do not show any issues when upgrading the firmware.
At this point, the only option is to wait for version 9.1.0.4 or wait for IBM to release a fix.
In this situation, it’s not even worth opening a ticket, as the response will simply be to wait for a new firmware, which has happened several times in the past.

Best Regards

Yeah, using test utility 49.6 -  results show all good. 

But I got below result when trying to install code 9.1.0.3

It’s best to wait for the fix.
If you downloaded the firmware via Call Home, it’s unlikely to be a corrupted file — it’s the same issue affecting the FS5300 as well.

PS: I upgraded an FS7300 to version 9.1.0.3 without any issues. The FS5200 I was planning to update will remain on 9.1.0.2 for now.

Best Regards
