Atlas probe down and probe replacement
After a power outage i'm not getting the probe up. It's not even trying DHCP. What is the procedure for a probe replacement? Thanks Sent via RIPE Forum -- https://www.ripe.net/participate/mail/forum
Have you tried booting it up without the USB stick attached to it? What are the lights showing as for the status of the device? Regards Alexander

With the USB plugged in, i'm getting 1st and 2nd LED in permanent on state. With USB unplugged it actually did get IP over DHCP. LEDs blinking as described in the FAQ (Running from built-in flash). Not connecting to the grid tho... The USB seems ok when plugged in a PC, 3 partitions visible. What fs are we talking about, any chance fsck could help?

Sounds like it may be a bad / corrupted USB. Try a plain reformat of the drive. See if it takes and if you can write to it. Then boot the atlas probe without the stick and insert it. The probe should format it and load up and rejoin the network. You may have been hit by the dead USB stick issue. If the stick doesn't like something to throws a permanent death switch and makes itself read only. In that case if you put a new stick in of 3GB or more then it should format it and start working again fully. I had to do this recently with a probe. Regards Alexander

Ah so it reformats it automatically... Great, boot up without USB and inserting it later on fixed the issue. Probe works and is now connected to the grid :) Sent via RIPE Forum -- https://www.ripe.net/participate/mail/forum
