Shady,
I just simulated your problem on my switch.
I deleted the vlan.dat file. And created a directory by the name vlan.dat.
Now, when tried to create a vlan and apply, I got the same exact error
message. Please see below:
3d12h: %SW_VLAN-4-IFS_FAILURE: VLAN manager encountered file operation
error: call = ifs_open/write / file = flash:/vlan.dat / code = 21 (Is a
directory) / bytes transfered = 0
-Traceback= 74382C B680D4 B689B4 B729C0 B72020 B8A0E4 B9A450 B7D500 B924BC
B8F0C0 B8EFB0 B8E3E4 B944BC B90FB8 6F227C 70CBDC
The solution is:
There is a directory by the name vlan.dat in your IFS. So remove it from the
flash.
rmdir vlan.dat ( make sure you are in the flash: working directory - you can
verify this by typing pwd)
Now try to create vlans.
HTH,
Regards,
Shine
