Format FLASH Drive Problem

[Ibrahim Talha Karababa]

Hi everyone,

when i tried to clear config i formatted the FLASH drive accidentally in the Boot Loader Menu.

============================================================

Boot Loader Menu

============================================================

1. Run primary image (Image not found) - Active

2. Run backup image (Image not found)

3. Change active boot image

4. Clear configuration

5. Format FLASH Drive

6. Manually update images

with selecting 5. item and obviously wireless lan controller does not open properly. By the way it is a 5508

Could I fix this problem? How I am gonna fix this problem?

So what is the logic of designing a menu which pressing it end up with a RMA proccess as a consequence?

well normally with the WLC you don't interrupt the boot sequence when you want to clear the config.

You do it from inside the software itself, clear config command at the CLI.

With the WLC we do not have access to the underlying OS, like you would with a router or switch

HTH,
Steve
