Replacing a switch in a VLT domain

Hi, I am new to Dell Switches and need some clarity.

SW 2 in a VLT setup crashed and has to be replaced. And there were no backup configs. VRRP was not configured, so when SW2 rejoins the VLT domain, how does the IP Addressing work for the VLANs without VRRP? Cause I have this error when I check for VLT mismatches

VLAN L3-IPv4 mismatch:
VLT Unit ID Mismatch VLAN List
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi, IP addresses can be assigned to VLANs when routing is desired. Actually, an IP address is not required for VLAN to work. VLANs are Layer 2 technologies that separate networks without assigning IP addresses to the VLANs themselves.

I don't know the model of your switch and which FW it uses, but maybe these links can help.
