System Management Commands

This command has no user guidelines.

There is no default configuration.

Stack Configuration mode

This command forces a warm restart of the stack. The backup unit takes over 

as the new management unit without clearing the hardware state on any of 

the stack members. The original management unit reboots. If the system is 

not ready for a warm restart, for example because no backup unit has been 

elected or one or more members of the stack do not support nonstop 

forwarding, the command fails with a warning message. 
The movemanagement command also transfers control from the current 

management unit; however, the hardware is cleared and all units reinitialize.

Use the member command in Stack Global Configuration mode to configure 

the switch. Execute this command on the Management Switch. To remove a 

switch from the stack, use the no form of the command.

  NOTE: The "no" form of the command may not be used if the member is present in 

the stack.
