maybe you also need the second variable

 

Add the following variables.
     Switch: SWITCH_IGNORE_STARTUP_CFG=1
     Switch: SWITCH_DISABLE_PASSWORD_RECOVERY=0

Then boot the switch.
     Switch: boot

 

When i put SWITCH_DISABLE_PASSWORD_RECOVERY=0 they shows me this variable can’t be change just read only

Hello,

 

ignore the 'read only' error message and boot the switch anyway:

 

Switch: SWITCH_IGNORE_STARTUP_CFG=1

Switch: SWITCH_DISABLE_PASSWORD_RECOVERY=0  --> ignore 'Read Only' message

Switch: BOOT=flash:packages.conf

Switch: boot
