Cisco DNA Upgrade Issues – Application Update Stuck
After initiating Cisco DNA Appliance version 2.1.2.4 and starting an upgrade towards 2.2.2.8 in order to get to 2.2.3.5 I got a strange issue where the appliance system update went fine but the switch to 2.2.2.8 was disabled until Application Updates did not finish.
The real issue here was that Application Updates of Cloud Connectivity – Data Hub got stuck on 12% for 4 days without timing out or finishing. Tried several appliance reboots from CIMC which didn’t help.
Below are the steps that helped sort out Application Updates issues with container pods being stuck at the point of pooling images from the cloud and creation on the Cisco DNA appliance. Of course, this was a long troubleshoot and here I listed only maglev CLI commands that were useful.
I SSH into the appliance and started digging the maglev CLI tool.
