Managing Switch Stacks

Results of Comparing the Provisioned Configuration with the Provisioned Switch (continued)

The stack member number of

the provisioned switch is not

found in the provisioned

configuration.

If you add a provisioned switch that is a different type than specified in the provisioned configuration to

a powered-down switch stack and then apply power, the switch stack rejects the (now incorrect) switch

stack-member-number provision type global configuration command in the startup configuration file.

However, during stack initialization, the nondefault interface configuration information in the startup

configuration file for the provisioned interfaces (potentially of the wrong type) is executed. Depending

on the differences between the actual switch type and the previously provisioned switch type, some

commands are rejected, and some commands are accepted.

If the switch stack does not contain a provisioned configuration for a new switch, the switch joins the

stack with the default interface configuration. The switch stack then adds to its running configuration a

switch stack-member-number provision type global configuration command that matches the new

For configuration information, see the

Effects of Replacing a Provisioned Switch in a Switch Stack

When a provisioned switch in a switch stack fails, is removed from the stack, and is replaced with

another switch, the stack applies either the provisioned configuration or the default configuration to it.

The events that occur when the switch stack compares the provisioned configuration with the

provisioned switch are the same as those described in the

Effects of Removing a Provisioned Switch from a Switch Stack

If you remove a provisioned switch from the switch stack, the configuration associated with the removed

stack member remains in the running configuration as provisioned information. To completely remove

the configuration, use the no switch stack-member-number provision global configuration command.

configuration to the provisioned switch

and adds it to the stack.
