How to remove portchannel in CatOS switch?

[adil.nasser3]

All,

I created the portchannel.  Now I want to remove it so I entered the command: "

set port channel 5/45-46 6 off".  The switch gave a message that portchannel has been turned off but it still auto assigned a channel group 402.  The portchannel is still showing in the config.  See below:

set port channel 5/45-46 402

How do I permanently remove it from the switch?

Try "no interface portchannel 402"

Nope.  This command does not work on CatOS switch.

From what I have read you can't just remove the port channel on CatOS like you can on an IOS device.  You have to clear the whole config.  Best you can do is turn the port channel off, which you already did.

Good information to know about CatOS. Thank you!

Hi Adil,

With CatOS, once you enter a configuration option, it will remain there.

Eg: set port channel 6/1-48 mode off (This is what is should be for any ports not channeled.)

Once configured you cant remove them, ie no interface portchannel X doesn't remove them from the config file!

Only you can turn off for now and once you have the downtime remove complete config and reboot the device and reconfigure if you dont want this config to be seen under running config. As you know in Catos the commands are automatically saved.
