C90 stuck in Maintenance Mode

Teevee
Level 1
Level 1

Hello,

I have this C90, which is stuck in maintenance mode [See attached photo], I have tried to reboot, factory reset even downgrade to 7.3.7 as per CSCuu23025 bug page:

https://quickview.cloudapps.cisco.com/quickview/bug/CSCuu23025

but the device remains in the maintenance mode.

I have attached the logs too. [All logs are zipped, due to issue with .tar upload]

Any suggestions? [I know it is EOL hardware, but it could be interesting to get it up and running]

Looking in the logs there are issues with bad flash memory, so it is possible this won't be able to be done and a replacement device will be required.

Instead of the old software it is running (which appears to only be a beta release candidate, tc-7.3.7-rc2-0-g01c84fd), you could try to upgrade it to a more recent release such as TC7.3.21 via the web interface.   This may work depending on the flash it is written to.  I'd suggest upgrading it twice if the first update works to get both images stored on the device to a recent version.   This may give you a little more life out of it, but, as you mentioned, it has been an end of support device for two years already, so a newer, supportable model would be recommended.
