HP ProCurve Series 2810 Management And Configuration Manual page 235

Using the Commander's Menu To Manually Add a Candidate to a
Stack. In the default configuration, you must manually add stack Members
from the Candidate pool. Reasons for a switch remaining a Candidate instead
of becoming a Member include any of the following:
Auto Grab in the Commander is set to No (the default).
■
Auto Join in the Candidate is set to No.
■
Note: When a switch leaves a stack and returns to Candidate status, its
Auto Join parameter resets to No so that it will not immediately rejoin a
stack from which it has just departed.
A Manager password is set in the Candidate.
■
The stack is full.
■
Unless the stack is already full, you can use the Stack Management screen to
manually convert a Candidate to a Member. If the Candidate has a Manager
password, you will need to use it to make the Candidate a Member of the stack.
