Managing Switch Stacks

20-13

1. Make sure the redundant stack connection is in place and functional. All stack members 

should be connected in a logical ring.

2. Preconfigure the new unit, if desired.

3. Install new unit in the rack. (Assumes installation below the bottom-most unit, or above the 

top-most unit).

4. Disconnect the redundant stack cable that connects the last unit in the stack back up to the first 

unit in the stack at the position in the ring where the new unit is to be inserted.

5. Connect this cable to the new unit, following the established order of “stack up” to “stack 

down” connections

6. Power up the new unit. Verify, by monitoring the master unit console port, that the new unit 

successfully joins the stack by issuing the show switch command. The new unit should always 
join as a “member” (never as master; the existing master of the stack should not change).

7. If the code version of the newly added member is not the same as the existing stack, update the 

code as described in section 

.

There are two possible situations here. First, if you replace a stack member of a certain model 
number with another unit of the same model, follow the process below:

•

Follow the process in section 

 to remove the desired stack 

member.

•

Follow the process in section 

 to add a new member to 

the stack with the following exceptions:

–

Insert the new member in the same position in the stack as the one removed.

–

Preconfiguration described in step 

 of that 

procedure is not required.

Second, if you replace a stack member with another unit of a different model number, use the 
following process:

•

Follow the process in section 

 to remove the desired stack 

member.

•

Remove the now-absent stack member from the configuration by issuing the command no 
member command.
