It is normal to see this message. It may happen when the device was powered down ungracefully. To avoid this, execute the command 'exec shutdown' before powering down the FortiSwitch.

 

If FortiSwitch was powered off for any other reason, avoid this message by formatting flash memory with the following command:

 

diagnose sys flash format

 

This command will reboot the FortiSwitch, so take care when applying it during active hours.
