3850 Switch deletes file on my USB disk

rasmus.elmholt

Level 7

I am trying to upgrade/downgrade a stack of 3850 switches. But every time i insert my USB stick into the switches it deletes the content of the files on the disk.

I have moved the .bin file to the flash drive:

F:\>dir
Disken i drev F er RECOVERY
Diskens serienummer er 7CA8-CD01

Indhold af F:\

19-12-2016 11:15 322.991.728 cat3k_caa-universalk9.SPA.03.07.03.E.152-3.E
3.bin
1 fil(er) 322.991.728 byte
0 mappe(r) 19.032.424.448 byte ledig

Reinserted the drive into the computer and the file is still the original size.

F:\>dir
Disken i drev F er RECOVERY
Diskens serienummer er 7CA8-CD01

Indhold af F:\

19-12-2016 11:15 322.991.728 cat3k_caa-universalk9.SPA.03.07.03.E.152-3.E
3.bin
1 fil(er) 322.991.728 byte
0 mappe(r) 19.032.424.448 byte ledig

F:\>

But when I insert it into the switch the size is zero:

Switch#
