Cisco 7916 Expansion module upgrade firmware

gialias2002 · ‎06-11-2009

Hi guys,

I have a CUCM version 7.0.1 and I am trying to upgrade to a cisco 7916 expansion module the IOS. I have to underline that I am doing that to all the IP phones in the cluster and everything works fine.

Everytime I upgrade an IOS and resetting the phone the upgrade is valid and the phone is working fine.

When I am doing that with the 7916 the firmware remains the same (default1.0.2SR1) and nothing changes.

I have uploaded the new IOS 1.0.3 and I have checked the default firmware version in the CUCM gui in case that I had made a mistake but NOT. In the CUCM it is clearly stated that the module should upload the new version. I also restarted the TFTP service but still nothing.

Does anyone have a clue how to fix that?

Is there a key sequence like the hold # and press 123456789*0# to reset the 7916 module?

Thanks for your help

Nick

Hi Nick,

Can you please tell us what version of Firmware the IP Phones are running? There are some compatability constraints based on this relationship.

Cheers!

Hi Rob,

The current firmware that the modules use is 1.0.2SR1.

I have installed in the server the 1.0.3 and I can see it in the device defaults.

Cheers

Sorry Nick :) The Firmware the "Phones" (7961,7962,7965 etc) are running, not the modules.

Cheers!

The phones are 7975G and I have just updated their firmware with the newest 8.5.2 version.

Cheers

Hi Nick,

That is strange! When you downloaded the new Firmware from CCO did you check the MD5 Checksum to verify the file integrity?

Hi Rob,

Yeap. Everything done as usual. The file integrity has been checked and the file has been downloaded by CCO not somewhere else.

I don't think that is the file as the CUCM accepts it and in the device defaults tab shows the updated firmaware which means that its done.

Cheers
