  • 1.  EX3300 vc mode {linecard}

    Posted 08-18-2022 11:12
    Hi all, 

    First-time poster, long-time reader.
     I have a problem with switch EX3300,

    rebooting has no effect here. I get the same problems when trying to log in.

    When I boot up with boot -s and recovery the switch tells me this:
     
    warning: This chassis is operating in a non-master role as part of a virtual-chassis (VC) system.
warning: Use of interactive commands should be limited to debugging and VC Port operations.
warning: Full CLI access is provided by the Virtual Chassis Master (VC-M) chassis.
warning: The VC-M can be identified through the show virtual-chassis status command executed at this console.
warning: Please logout and log into the VC-M to use CLI.​​


    I tried this:
    + request system zeroize 

    + loader> install --format file:///<Junos package name>  , i try upgrade OS with USB boots

    +  I try to delete file Vchassic  then reboot it

    I tried but it is still mode linecard, I can't use the switch in this state, I need it in Master or stand-alone mode.


    Thanks

    The chassis this was connected as line card have this switch listed as member and are the VC cables still connected to this switch? On the line card switch you may also want to try the following if not executed earlier. 

    configure
    delete virtual-chassis
    commit and-quit

    Your console output is a bit nonsensical -- it shows a single master member yet the switch is running in linecard mode. Are you sure it's not connected to another switch? The two styles of console windows in your post make me think we don't have the full picture. Did you really reboot or did you just kill the vccpd process (and why?)

    Make sure there are no other VC switches attached. Check with 'show virtual-chassis vc-port'

    start shell
    rm -rf /config/vchassis/    *
    exit
    request system reboot at now

    Hi Smicker,

    thank you for reply. 

    I make sure its not connect to another switch.
     
    Yes, The two styles of console windows in my post, because i deleted file vchasssic and then reboot but its still mode linecard , i follow guide form juniper:  https://supportportal.juniper.net/s/article/EX-QFX-Routing-Engine-stuck-in-Linecard-role?language=en_US

    Now, i show virtual-chassis vc-port,  and remove file again.

    i have log session :

    Logging to master
    ...
    Connection to master failed, enabling local login

    Hi,

    If u already reformat it then it should back to master. Please try reformat again using loader step USB.

    Agreed--please do a boot loader USB install with format. It's booting from the backup image, and the chassis manager is core-dumping.

    Thanks for all the support, problem solved

    - Change booting from the primary image
    - Re-install Junos from boot loader USB install with --format

    The device is already working in master mode
