Hello everyone,
Working on a OS6360 (not a 6350 opened it here since did not find 6360) and dealing with a weird issue. The device is out of the box no config done and just making a change and trying to save with write memory command but dealing with the error:
-> write memory
ERROR: Write memory is not permitted when switch is running in certified mode
So running-directory
-> show running-directory

and after that
-> modify running-directory working

What could be the next step to be able to fix this ?
Thanks
OS6360 cannot write memory

Re: OS6360 cannot write memory
Hello @silvio
Command did not work and outputted
Mon Oct 4 06:21:06 : flashManager Main ALRT message:
+++ Virtual chassis configuration is NOT present in virtual chassis mode - inconsistent configuration
ERROR: Invalid request, chassis must be certified
We proceed to a full factory reset and what lastly helped was the below sequence of commands
copy certified working
reload from working no rollback-timeout
After reloading the running directory was finally changed to working and then
write memory
and it worked correctly.
Thank you for your support

Hello,
This is my experience with a pair of OS6360.
By default each switch boots with VC mode discovering neighbours:
