Chapter 6: Emergency recovery trees
An emergency recovery tree (ERT) is designed to quickly guide you through some common failures
and solutions, by providing a quick reference for troubleshooting without procedural detail.
This chapter provides emergency recovery trees (ERTs) following VSP 7000 failure symptoms:
• Corruption of Flash
• Incorrect PVID
• VLAN not tagged to uplink ports
• Stack Failure
Corruption of Flash
Power outages or environmental conditions can corrupt the switch configuration file stored in flash
memory, which causes a failure in switch operation. Initializing the flash is one way to clear a
corrupted configuration file and is required before an RMA.
