New image doesn't install on existing partition - V 10.1.0

Hello Folks,

 

I am facing an issue while installing a new BIG-IP OS to the 1600 appliance. The issue is, I can see 2 partitions available, in which one partition has the currently loaded BIG-IP OS, I want to upgrade 10.1.0 to 11.2.1 HF10.

 

I have uploaded the image to F5, however unable to install the image on another available partition. It just gives me "Failed" as status while installing. Do I need to format that partition before installing 11.2.1? If yes, any help formatting the partition?

 

Thanks folks! Darshan
