Image-based OTA update for JetPack 5.1.3

Robotics & Edge Computing Jetson & Embedded Systems Jetson Orin Nano

Hello,

I am trying to update my orin nano devkit from JP5.1.2(R35.4.1) to the latest JP5.1.3(R35.5.0) via image-based OTA update. And I bumped into a trouble.
I know that I can use APT to easily update my dev kit but I need to verify the image-based way for my later custom production boards.

The problem is, since my device is flashed with rootfs A/B enabled, the successful update should automatic change my boot slot but it seemed not. The attachment is the log I got. According to the log, I can see it said the update to non-current boot slot B was succeed and would be re-directed after the reboot. However, the device always boot into the old version JP5.1.2 with nothing changes.

Please help. Thanks.

Hi ewei2,

Please share the following 2 logs for further check.

  1. log showed on your host PC when you generated the image-based OTA package
  2. serial console log when you run reboot command to trigger update process

Thanks for your reply. Please refer to the following information.

Payload generation command:
sudo -E ./tools/ota_tools/version_upgrade/l4t_generate_ota_package.sh --external-device nvme0n1 -S 55GiB jetson-orin-nano-devlit R35-4
corresponding log:
payloadGeneration.txt (617.9 KB)

OTA deployment script:
ota_deply.txt (416 Bytes)
Trigger and execution log:
otaTriggerLog.txt (16.4 KB)

Reboot log for triggering update from serial console:
resetUpdateConsoleLog.txt (124.2 KB)

p.s. my device can be flashed successfully by using the following command with rootfs A/B enabled in the very first place:
$sudo ROOTFS_AB=1 ./tools/kernel_flash/l4t_initrd_flash.sh --external-device nvme0n1p1 -S 55GiB -c tools/kernel_flash/flash_l4t_t234_nvme_rootfs_ab.xml -p “-c bootloader/t186ref/cfg/flash_t234_qspi.xml” --showlogs --network usb0 jetson-orin-nano-devkit internal

Please add ROOTFS_AB=1 when you are generating the OTA payload for rootfs a/b enabled.

$ sudo -E ROOTFS_AB=1 ./tools/ota_tools/version_upgrade/l4t_generate_ota_package.sh --external-device nvme0n1 -S 55GiB jetson-orin-nano-devlit R35-4

Thanks. It worked.

Please do add that in the document otherwise it’s a bit hard to know.

Thank you again for the help.
