<p>Not sure what the tftp and ftp is all about, I need to log back in and look at other 3560s and see if that is normal.  I was actually trying to prune a VLAN when this happened, so I will start a new thread with THAT issue!</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

  Its trying to write the config file to flash   but you have no space left in flash to write anything .     Somebody tried to save to a tftp and ftp server but instead ended up  writing it to flash  for some reason .  You should be able to get rid of those  and free up about 9 meg worth of flash.
