The private subnet metalog VLAN is used for storing file-change
logs on battery-backed NVRAM, possibly on a redundant peer.
Be sure this value does not conflict with existing VLAN IDs.

Finding the UUID of the Failed Switch
When a switch imports storage from back-end filers, it marks each share with its
Universally-Unique ID (UUID). A replacement switch must use the same UUID or it
rejects all of the shares used by its predecessor. You also need to set the UUID if the
switch is brought back to its factory defaults; a “Manufacturing Installation” by
Acopia personnel resets the switch and its UUID.
The UUID appears at the top of a switch’s
show running-config output. For example,
this is the top of a running-config file from a switch named “prtlndA1k.” The UUID is
highlighted in bold text:
; ARX-1000
; Version 2.04.000.09332 (Jul 13 2006 18:10:00) [nbuilds]
; Database version: 204000.15

If the failed switch was a member of a Resilient-Overlay Network (RON), you can
alternatively use
show ron from any other RON member. This shows the UUID even
if the chassis is no longer online. For example, the following command (run on
another switch in the RON) shows the UUID for a failed chassis, “prtlndA1k.” Again,
the UUID is highlighted in bold text:
