Chapter 13: Stacking

Replacing or Removing Stacked Switches
Stack
switches
may
be
replaced
or
removed
while
the
stack
is
in
operation.
However,
the
following
conditions
must
be
met
to
avoid
unnecessary
disruption:
If
removing
an
active
Master
switch,
make
sure
that
a
valid
Backup
exists
in
the
stack.
It
is
best
to
replace
only
one
switch
at
a
time.
If
replacing
or
removing
multiple
switches
in
a
ring
topology,
when
one
switch
has
been
properly
disconnected
(see
the
procedures
that
follow),
any
adjacent
switch
can
also
be
removed.
Removing
any
two,
non
‐
adjacent
switches
in
a
ring
topology
will
divide
the
ring
and
disrupt
the
stack.
Use
the
following
procedures
to
replace
a
stack
switch.
Removing a Switch from the Stack
1.
Make
sure
the
stack
is
configured
in
a
ring
topology.
Note:
When
an
open
‐
ended
daisy
‐
chain
topology
is
in
effect
(either
by
design
or
as
the
result
of
any
failure
of
one
of
the
stacking
links
in
a
ring
topology),
removing
a
stack
switch
from
the
interior
of
the
chain
can
divide
the
chain
and
cause
serious
disruption
to
the
stack
operation.
2.
If
removing
a
Master
switch,
make
sure
that
a
Backup
switch
exists
in
the
stack,
then
turn
off
the
Master
switch.
This
will
force
the
Backup
switch
to
assume
Master
operations
for
the
stack.
3.
Remove
the
stack
link
cables
from
the
old
switch
only.
4.
Disconnect
all
network
cables
from
the
old
switch
only.
5.
Remove
the
old
switch.
Installing the New Switch or Healing the Topology
If
using
a
ring
topology,
but
not
installing
a
new
switch
for
the
one
removed,
close
the
ring
by
connecting
the
open
stack
links
together,
essentially
bypassing
the
removed
switch.
Otherwise,
if
replacing
the
removed
switch
with
a
new
unit,
use
the
following
procedure:
1.
Make
sure
the
new
switch
meets
the
stacking
requirements
on
.
2.
Place
the
new
switch
in
its
determined
place
according
to
the
CN4093
10
Gb
Converged
Scalable
Switch
Installation
Guide
.
3.
Connect
to
the
ISCLI
of
the
new
switch
(not
the
stack
interface)
4.
Enable
stacking:
