Chapter 10: Routine V-Switch Maintenance 10-25
Level 3: Reboot with Default Factory System
This clears all user
login profiles. You
will have to login with
the user name
sanrad and password
sanrad.
This clears the database of all configurations executed on the V-Switch,
including user login profiles. You will have to log in with the user name
sanrad and password sanrad.
Exporting a Corrupted Database
After you reboot the V-Switch from safe mode level 1 or 2, you can use the CLI
command ft export problem to export the potentially corrupted database
to SANRAD technical support for examination.
If you rebooted in safe mode level 1 (last good configuration), the last good
database file and the corrupted database file are exported for examination.
If you rebooted in safe mode level 2 (reboot with default factory database), the
corrupted database file is exported for examination.
ft export problem
You need two parameters to export a corrupted database from the V-Switch:
SWITCH PARAMETER DEFINITION STATUS EXAMPLE
-ip
IP ADDRESS SERVER IP
ADDRESS
MANDATORY
212.199.43.70
-fd
FILE DIRECTORY DIRECTORY TO
EXPORT FILES TO
MANDATORY
Corrupted_DB
Example

address 212.199.43.70.
ft export problem –ip 212.199.43.70 –fd Corrupted_DB
Manual Safe Mode
You can use the CLI to clear a V-Switch’s database to varying degrees. This is
useful if you want to change the physical storage pool managed by a V-Switch
or make substantial changes to the virtualization configuration.
