Usage
Information
Use this command to remove a regular file, software image, or startup configuration. Removing the
startup configuration restores the system to the factory default. You must reboot the switch using the
reload command for the operation to take effect.
NOTE:
● Use caution when removing the startup configuration.
● When the config partition has low disk space, a syslog message displays:
SYS_STAT_LOW_DISK_SPACE: Warning! Configuration directory has 0.0%
free. Please delete unnecessary files from home directory.
When you see this error, delete unwanted files from the home directory or you may encounter
degraded system performance.
