Symptom
When upgrading the PA-5450 firewall it becomes unresponsive and eventually reboots to maintenance mode.
Environment
- PA-5450 firewall
- PAN-OS 10.2.6 and above.
Cause
Filesystem corruption.
Resolution
- The issue is targeted to be fixed under PAN-246420 in PAN-OS 10.2.11, 10.1.14, 11.0.7, and 11.1.3 PAN-OS versions.
- Upgrading to the above-mentioned version will resolve the issue.
- Reinstall the software again from the "maintenance" mode.
- The reinstallation triggers a filesystem check (FSCK), addressing and clearing any filesystem corruption issues.
