Copying files to flash hangs/reboots ASA

[jeff_green]

Hi,

            Just wondering if anyone else has seen this behaviour ....

When I use ASDM or the CLI to copy (ftp) files from my management station to flash on my ASA5520

I get to 99% and then the gui or cli window hangs.

The ASA itself completely freezes  i.e. no traffic in or out until I kill the transfer window and then it may reboot

[and yes, there is more than enough free space on the flash file system for the files]

ASA5520 V8.2(3) / ASDM V6.4(5)

                                    Many Thanks,

Pls. open a TAC case and get the crash invetigated.

You may want to first try

fsck disk0:

That may take care of the problem. If not try

format disk0:

bear in mind you have to upload all the files back to flash once done.
