USB Flash Drive Is Not Recognized

If the SmartServer does not recognize a USB flash drive, then a lower-quality USB flash drive may have been used for a re-image, or the USB flash drive was not formatted properly. Use a quality flash storage such as a Samsung flash storage device.

To resolve this problem, perform the following:

  1. Reboot the SmartServer with the USB drive plugged in.

    1. In older SmartServer version you will need to unplug the U60/U70, plug in the USB flash driver and reboot the SmartServer before the USB flash drive is recognized.

    2. Using SSH/console, enter the following command:

      sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/usb0

    3. If the problem persists, then enter the following commands:

      sudo mkdir -p /media/usb0 sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/usb0

       

  2. Try using a different USB flash drive.
