I would like to reset some QFX3500's that my company just got in back to fresh out of box factory config, however they seem to be stuck in a Virtual-chassis setup. I have even tried doing a fresh clean install from the loader prompt with the --format, and these units still seem to be stuck in the virtual chassis config.
When I try doing the command "show chassis hardware detail" I get the following output.
root@P6893-C:LC:0% cli
root@P6893-C> show chassis hardware detail
error: the chassis-control subsystem is not running
root@P6893-C>
I have tried the "restart chassis-control" command. The units just come back stating that they could not be started.
I have tried doing a zeroize and going into config and doing a "load factory-default" when I do this command I get the following output.
root@P6893-C# load factory-default
warning: activating factory configuration
[edit]
'protocols'
warning: statement has no contents; ignored
[edit]
root@P6893-C#
for the life of me I just can't get these units to reset to factory defaults.
What am I missing here?
