Bug ID 1351541: Unable to remove the ISO images that share the same minor version with the running version

Last Modified: Jul 01, 2025

Affected Product(s):
F5OS F5OS, F5OS-A, F5OS-C, Velos(all modules)

Fixed In:
F5OS-C 1.8.1, F5OS-C 1.8.0, F5OS-A 1.8.0

Opened: Sep 13, 2023

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

Removal of ISO (controller/partition/appliance) fails when a same minor version is shared. Example: Import 1.5.1 and upgraded the system to 1.6.1. Later import 1.6.2(1.6.*) and upgraded the system to 1.6.2. When the system is on 1.6.2 unable to delete 1.6.1.

Impact

Unable to remove the unused ISO.

Conditions

The major and minor version of the current ISO must be same as the ISO version that is being removed/deleted.

Workaround

For controller/appliance, you must remove the ISO on a software version that includes different minor release. For example, you can remove 1.6.1-5555 while running ISO version 1.5.X or 1.7.X. For partition, disable and unset the ISO versions of any partitions that use the same minor version of the ISO that needs to be removed. For example, you can remove 1.6.1-5555 by disabling all the partitions running on 1.6.X and de-configure the SW versions.
