Problem

Unable to install a "non-wsm" image. It ends in installation process in loop rebooting continuosly. 

Solution

Purge the existing installation completely with the previous .wsm.bin and re-install the non-wsm >image.


Before installing an image of a different CPU model, purge the existing image. This also fails to remove the CDB and also fails to install the correct port numbering required for your CPU model.


Run these shell commands from your device:

  • sudo service versa-flexvnf stop

  • sudo dpkg --purge versa-flexvnf

  • sudo rm -rf /opt/versa

  • sudo rm -rf /var/versa

  • sudo ./<non-wsm image>
