SG135 Rev3 - Since Update not working correctly

Quick Update:

The SG135 is working now, but i dont know why.
I had now Links on my ETHs und lan & internet ist working again.

Only Problem ist that the Status LED is always blinking rapidly - and this dosnt stop.

That was not before the last Update.

Could somebody help me here to find out what is the Problem?

Same applies to my SG115 rev3 with SFOS 19.5.2 MR-2-Build624 on it. Reinstalled from Hardware version to Software version with Home License and now the status LED flashing occurs. Tried Firmware Version SFOS 19.5.1 MR-1-Build278 as well but no change. Everything works as already mentioned here but still seems weird.

just out of interest...
if you reinstall this back to hardware, does the LED work normally again?

Already tried this but the flashing is still present :/

According to /etc/init.d/beep the LED turns solid green only if no problem during startup:

...
#after boot is complete we want to set led to solid green if no problems were encountered
adjust_status_led_for_post_boot() {
        #only change led on sophos hardware
        if [ -e $ASG_HW_FILE ]; then
                . $ASG_HW_FILE
                case $ASG_VERSION$ASG_SUBTYPE in
                        105r3|105wr3|115r3|115wr3|125r3|125wr3|135r3|135wr3) #only necessary for these devices
                                        /usr/local/bin/ledctl -g >> /dev/null
                                        if [ $? == 1 ]; then
                                                /usr/local/bin/ledctl -w 3 >> /dev/null
                                        fi
                                ;;
                esac
        fi
}

case "$1" in
        start)
                startf &
                # call plymouth quit only during startup.
                # not during stop, restart of beeps
                /usr/bin/plymouth --ping && /usr/bin/plymouth quit
                adjust_status_led_for_post_boot
                rc_status -v >/dev/null 2>&1
        ;;
...

Did you hear the five beeps?

There were reports that some intel driver code change in the kernel (notably the I40E) cause troubles (see german forum).

Thanks for your answer.

As a side note: at least in my case, /etc/init.d/beep and of course /etc/asg do not exist. Reading the code you posted, without the asg file the led won't stop flashing.

To answer your question, no there are no beeps at any time of running the system.

But at least for me the flashing of the led makes sense now. The software version of Sophos XG Firewall does not contain any code to control the led of the Sophos SG 115 appliance.

Do you know if there is an option to create a script that will switch the status led to constant light?

Sorry, i somehow missed that you are using a home licence  with software ISO.

Maybe you have /usr/local/bin/ledctl

Usage (specifically for the nexcom boards in hardware appliances) is:

[DNA130S] NEXCOM CPLD - Status LED Control
Usage:
        ./DNA130S_LED { w VALUE | g | h }
        e.g. ./DNA130S_LED -w 0
        ---------------------------------------------
        Breakdown for Flags:
        -w [Value] - Set LED status
        -g         - Get LED status (Passed as return value)
        -h         - Print Help
        valid [Value] options:
        0: LED Off
        1: Green Blinking
        2: Red Constantly
        3: Green Constantly
        4: Red Blinking

so placing a "/usr/local/bin/ledctl -w 3" somewhere in the boot process should suffice.

Thanks again for your answer.

Unfortunately I don't have ledctl either under the mentioned path or anywhere else in the system. I assume these components to control the hardware are logically not present in the software version. I will do a research to find out if the control elements of the hardware can be "retrofitted" in the software version.

Any other ideas are really appreciated.

also i just tested it, when i run this command, the led stays on constantly like before
