Not loading firmware for A8 nodes about iot-lab-mqtt HOT 3 CLOSED

I still don't get too much involved in the code, but something tells me that what is happening here is that this tool what is truly doing is just calling the application

node-cli -l <SITE>,<ARCHITECTURE>,<NODE> -up <PATH>

Which sadly is not working for the A8 architecture.

Hi
You are right.
The node-cli command line tool with --update firmware option is not valid and implemented for A8 nodes. You got an error "invalid nodes list" because in your experiment nodes list you have a8-34 node.

If you execute node-cli -up -e grenoble,a8,34 it should be ok.

The only way to flash the A8-M3 nodes firmware is a manual SSH connection on the A8 node or a8-cli-tools. But when you use a8-cli-tools from the frontend SSH you must ensure that your public SSH key store in the frontend SSH (~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub) is uploaded is in your account profile on the webportal (view this tutorial: https://www.iot-lab.info/tutorials/ssh-cli-client/

Best regards.

Thanks @fsaintma,

Because this is a problem from another repository I'll close this issue. However, a small warning in the documentation would be nice.
