Hello Everyone,
I have a 6860E that has been used for testing configuration changes but now it is needed for production. How do I factory default it so it would be just like it came out of the box?
Factory Default 6860E
Re: Factory Default 6860E
you can delete all files in flash (with rm *). Than you can delete all folders beside certified-directory. For this you can use for directory switch f.e. command "rm -r switch". In certified you can delete vcsetup and vcboot (rm certified/vc*). After reboot it should come up like factory.

Re: Factory Default 6860E
Hi Silvio,
Is it possible to shutdown the switch (6860E) and could be start with whole configuration?
Now when i power off the switch to move from Testing Lab to Data Center then Switch starts from Factory Default? How it will be possible to start from configured parameters?
Please tell me the way or commands.
Regards

Hi,
in sw-Guide you can find all the commands. Your issue is that the config is not certified.
If your switch has started from certified you can use this command:
-> copy certified working make-running-directory
instead of working you can use any other name for the directory.
If you would like to power of the switch than use before:
-> write memory flash-synchro

Hi,
at cli (ssh or serial) you can list all your files and directories with "> ls -l". Directories will be marked with a d at the start.
Now you can delete all files within /flash with "rm *" and all other directories beside certified with "rm -r name" (name is the directory like switch).
now you go to directory certified with "cd certified" and delete all files beside .img-files "rm vc*" and "rm boo*".
Now you restart the switch power down. It should start from certified. After that you can use the command "copy certified working make-running-directory".
