ADSM 5.0.5 not loaded with ASA image 7.0.5

[croue]

Hi,

A have an ASA5520, which was running with the image: asa704-4-k8.bin and the ADSM: asdm504-2.bin

I upgraded the image in 7.0.5, and the ADSM in 5.0.5

The ASA boots correctly with this new version 7.0.5, but still boot with the ADSM asdm504-2.bin and not the asdm505.bin

In the configuration, I have the next boot variable:

boot system disk0:/asa705-k8.bin

boot system disk0:/asdm505.bin

So, I'd like to know why the ASA 5520 doesn't accept the ADSM file at boot.

P.S: the ADSM file size in the flash is: 5823304

Hello,

Take a look at you config and ensure that you have deleted the old boot system command

you may still have this entry: boot system disk0:/asdm504-2.bin

If you do not have that entry then try erasing the actual asdm504-2.bin from disk0: (after backing up all relevant confiurations that is)

Give it a try and tell me what you come up with

Thanks,

Chris

You dont want to have the boot system command reference the asdm .bin file. the correct command for the asdm file is:

asdm image disk0:/

Make sure you remove the boot system command the references the asdm file. you only want to boot to the asa704.bin file.
