Stack Manager Commands
When you use the switch provision command, memory is allocated for the provisioned configuration.
Caution
When a new switch type is configured, the previously allocated memory is not fully released. Therefore,
do not use this command more than approximately 200 times, or the switch will run out of memory and
unexpected behavior will result.
Examples This example shows how to provision a switch with a stack member number of 2 for the switch stack. The
show running-config command output shows the interfaces associated with the provisioned switch.
Switch(config)# switch 2 provision WS-xxxx
Switch(config)# end
Switch# show running-config | include switch 2
!
interface GigabitEthernet2/0/1
!
interface GigabitEthernet2/0/2
!
interface GigabitEthernet2/0/3
<output truncated>
You also can enter the show switch user EXEC command to display the provisioning status of the switch
stack.
This example shows how to delete all configuration information about stack member 5 when the switch is
removed from the stack:
Switch(config)# no switch 5 provision
You can verify that the provisioned switch is added to or removed from the running configuration by entering
the show running-config privileged EXEC command.
