Issue

ONTAP upgrade fails with error message similar to one of the following :

  • ERROR: Attempt to install an invalid kernel binary on target hardware: /dev/stdin:ERROR: error while writing to temp file (No space left on device).
  • Error: Could not create the stage area /tmp/extract to download the image.  Action: Use the "cluster show" command to verify that all nodes in the cluster are healthy. Use the "cluster image package show-repository" command to verify that the downloaded image has the correct version. If all nodes are healthy and the image has the correct version, wait a few minutes, and then use the "cluster image resume-update" command to resume the update.
