Yep, I labbed it up and the client with higher revision number did indeed
overwrite it!!
I also agree with Marko and this is the easiest way without a doubt! Another
thing I do when clearing my 3560's in between labs is to make all clients VTP
servers and then delete the VLAN.DAT
delete /force /recursive vlan.dat
erase startup-config
obviously this will require a reload but it works!!

I would agree with the Marko's recomendation. Change domain to tempXYZ then
change it back to the acutal VTP domain. This will reset the revision number
to 0.
Even VTP clients can overwrite VTP servers if they have a higher revision
version than the server.

A easy way to do it could be just set it as a VTP client and set the priority
to the highest first, update the vlan database, in the case that the database
is huge,
disconect it from the network, change it to Server, connect it again and then
change the priority a few point higher than the current root. This could a more
mechanical method but I think is the safer in case you're working in a network
that you don't manage end to end.

Hi,
I have a 6509 switch running as a vtp server and I would like to add another
identical switch for resilience but with vtp status server.
How can you make sure the new switch doesn't affect the vlan database on
existing switch? Basically we want both 6509 switches to be vtp servers.
Cheers,
Farzad
