SummitStack upgrade fails : "No space left on device"

SummitStack upgrade fails : "No space left on device"

Hi everybody,

I'm upgrading my production SummitStacks from EXOS version 15.1.4.3 to 16.1.3.6.
The upgrade was successful on every stack except one, which fails and displays this error message :

Failed to download image on Slot-7 - tftp: can't open '/scratch/summitX-16.1.3.6-patch1-11.xos': No space left on device

It's a 8-member stack, i tried to launch the upgrade several times and it always fails on Slot 7.

Here is the complete output displayed in CLI :

Slot-1 # download image X.X.X.X extreme/summitX-16.1.3.6-patch1-11.xos vr vr-Default secondary
Do you want to install image after downloading? (y - yes, n - no, - cancel) Yes

.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*..***Error: Download image failed (see above error message)

I rebooted the slot 7 but it doesn't solve the problem.
I even tried to remove slot 7 from the stack, do "unconfigure switch all" on slot 7 to put it back to factory default, and then put it back in the stack. The issue is still here.

I wonder if any of you ever faced this problem.
Thanks in advance for the help

BootROM rescue, as Dave mentions, will wipe all of the memory on the switch as a part of the process. This is also a valid solution.
