5.3.7

Maintenance – Remake Filesystem

In the event of sudden loss of power, it is possible that the switch configuration may become corrupt. The file system on which the configuration is stored must be re-created. This option resets the switch to the factory default values including user accounts and zoning. Refer to Table B-3though Table B-8for the factory default values.

CAUTION! If you choose the Remake Filesystem option, you will lose all changes made to the fabric configuration that involve that switch, such as password and zoning changes. You must then reconfigure the portions of the fabric that involve the switch.

5.3.8

Maintenance – Reset Switch

This option closes the Telnet session, exits maintenance mode and reboots the switch using the current switch configuration. All unpacked firmware image files that reside on the switch are deleted.

5.3.9

Maintenance – Show Firmware Versions

This option displays the image numbers and firmware versions that are stored on the switch.

5.3.10

Maintenance – Set Active Image

This option specifies the firmware version to be used when the switch returns to normal operation. A message reminds you of the pending firmware version and gives you an opportunity to change it by selecting the other image number.
