Deleting a startup configuration file to be used at the
next startup
CAUTION:
This command permanently deletes startup configuration files to be used at the next startup from all
member devices. Use it with caution.
Delete a startup configuration file to be used at the next startup at the CLI. On a device that has main and
backup startup configuration files, you can choose to delete the main, the backup, or both. If the device has
only one startup configuration to be used at the next startup, the system only sets the startup configuration file
to NULL.

reasons:
• After you upgrade system software, the existing startup configuration files do not match the new system
software.
• Startup configuration files are corrupted (often caused by loading a wrong configuration file).
With startup configuration files deleted, the devices uses null configuration at the next startup.
