Dear Experts, 
I'm failing to copy an upgrade image  file to the NCS5500 router 
 
Im getting security notifications like this one below 


xr-vm_node0_RP0_CPU0:/misc]$RP/0/RP0/CPU0:Sep 17 17:36:02.763 AEST: sftp_server[68061]: %SECURITY-SSHD-3-ERR_FILE_PATH : Cannot write to system files path: [/misc/NCS5500-iosxr-k9-7.11.2.tar.filepart]


Can you please point me to what I'm doing wrong? 

Thanks

Hi @dgawaya1 , 

@smilstea is right with /misc/disk1/ path.

Starting 7.5.2, you can use the "show install upgrade-matrix iso harddisk:name-of-iso" it will display where the ISO file must be located. 
   
/var/xr/disk1
/misc/disk1/
/harddisk:/

Hope it helps.
   
Have a nice day

Dear @dgawaya1 ,
 
This syslog points usually to an error in the path parameter.

Your final goal is to have this 7.11.2 in harddisk: ? Because in the log pattern, I'm only seeing /misc/. 

If possible, could you share the command you are using to copy your image from point A to point B ? 

Hope it helps. 

Kind Regards,

Yes, I would like to have this 7.11.2 image on the harddisk for upgrade. I'm using winscp to copy and past to the /misc/ folder of the router.

harddisk: is /misc/disk1 in the shell (Linux).
