TFTP Device Access Problem

[techman]

Hi

A tftp session to a 6509 crashed whilst downloading a config. since then I cannot access the tftp: flash device.

Configure using tftp:/switch-confg (y/n) [n]? y

TFTP filesys used by another process?

Config file tftp:/switch-confg cannot be opened (File is being used)

Cannot get file to buffer

Cannot copy from tftp:/switch-confg to config:

suir> (enable) exit

Any ideas as to how I can get round / fix this ?

This was a bug in earlier software, pre-6.1.1, if a TFTP did not gracefully close another process could not be open. Later software prevents these dangling TFTP processes. The only problem is now the switch must be reset to relinquish the TFTP process.
