The problem I was having is that I wanted the actual vlans to show up in
the global config as well as in the vlan database (native ios) and I
couldn't get this to work. I would blow away vlan.dat, reload then enter
the vlans in global mode. The vlans and their names would show up in the
vlan database but still would not show up as entries in the global
config. We were told by cisco that RPR+ will not work correctly if the
vlan statements are not in the database and global config.
In an effort to troubleshoot this, I thought there was an additonal file
that had to be deleted besides vlan.dat ...I thought that might fix the
issue.
Turns out, if the 6509 is in vtp client mode, the vlan statements will
never be allowed in the global config but will show up in the vlan
database.
We changed the vtp server type to transparent and all is well.
Thanks for the help!

If you create vlan via IOS, then I am guessing you also have to remove
vlan
(???) from configuration

There are not two files. Delete the vlan.dat and reload.
