[cisco-voip] Grub Error

[Ryan Ratliff]

In addition to regular backups your disaster recover plans need to include having the disks/files necessary to actually do the install.  Doing an upgrade during install is always an option so if you stick those install ISOs somewhere safe you won't have to download multiple gigabyte files from cisco.com while your server is down.

I ended up calling TAC.  It wasn't fixable (To give them credit, they tried).  We rebuilt the Sub from scratch.

Note:  Downloading the ISO from TAC sucks.  You have to download two files, and combine them.  Then burn it to a DVD.  Unfortantuley, the DVD burn didn't take, so we ended up using FTP anyways.  If I was to try it again, i'd burn the DVD at a slower speed (like 2X or 4X)

something with the partition table...   7 only takes about an hour to
load, but depending on hardward and the database size it might add
another hour to that.    Remember that with ccm 6/7  you that when you
rebuild the sub it needs to match the pub version.   If the install
disk is not the same release, make sure you have the ftp server handy
with the os updates on it.

Might be worth a call to TAC, they might have a way to fix this... or
just tell you bad news, but either way, they should be able to get you
a bootable os disc with the same version of your pub if you don't have
one.
