Flashing Redundant Rootfs on NVMe SSD Orin

I have used the following command to flash a standard rootfs to an Orin Devkit on a M.2 NVMe SSD:

$ sudo ./tools/kernel_flash/l4t_initrd_flash.sh -c tools/kernel_flash/flash_l4t_external.xml --external-device nvme0n1p1 jetson-agx-orin-devkit external

This works as expected.

I then tried the command to flash a redundant rootfs on the emmc:

$ sudo ROOTFS_AB=1 ROOTFS_RETRY_COUNT_MAX=1 ./flash.sh jetson-agx-orin-devkit mmcblk0p1

This too works as expected and I am able to switch between the two.

Now I am attempting to flash a redundant rootfs on the SSD in the same manner. I have tried this command:

$ sudo ROOTFS_AB=1 ROOTFS_RETRY_COUNT_MAX=1 ./tools/kernel_flash/l4t_initrd_flash.sh -c flash_l4t_nvme_rootfs_ab.xml --external-device nvme0n1p1 jetson-agx-orin-devkit external

However I am unable to boot after the flashing completes.

Is this the right command and xml config?

I have the boot logs, but I ran out of characters so if you need those I can provide.

YES.
Please provide the full log here.

I had to link the logs due to the character limit:

Host machine: Host Log - Pastebin.com
Target orin: Target Log - Pastebin.com

Hi,

can you please attach the log as text files here?
I cannot access Pastebin due to some firewall settings.

Hi,

so clearly even the flashing process itself was not successful:

[ 213]: l4t_flash_from_kernel: Successfully flash the qspi
[ 213]: l4t_flash_from_kernel: Flashing success
Error flashing non-qspi storage

Can you try again and record the serial console log during flashing?
Your log now looks to be captured after flashing.
