Split an S-Series Stack To split a stack, unplug the desired stacking cables.You may do this at any time, whether the stack is powered or unpowered, and the units are online or offline. Each portion of the split stack retains the startup and running configuration of the original stack. For a parent stack that is split into two child stacks, A and B, each with multiple units: • If one of the new stacks receives the primary and the secondary management units, it is unaffected by the split. • If one of the new stacks receives only the primary management unit, that units remains the stack manager, and FTOS elects a new secondary management unit. • If one of the new stacks receives only the secondary management unit, it becomes the primary management, and FTOS elects a new secondary management unit. • If one of the new stacks receives neither the primary nor the secondary management unit, the stack is reset so that a new election can take place. S-Series Stacking Configuration Tasks • Assign Unit Numbers to Units in an S-Series Stack • Create a Virtual Stack Unit on an S-Series Stack • Display Information about an S-Series Stack • Influence Management Unit Selection on an S-Series Stack • Manage Redundancy on an S-Series Stack • Reset a Unit on an S-Series Stack • Recover from Stack Link Flaps Assign Unit Numbers to Units in an S-Series Stack Each unit in the stack has a stack number that is either assigned by you or FTOS. Units are numbered from 0 to 7. Stack numbers are stored in NVRAM and are preserved upon reload. Task Assign a stack-number to a unit. Command Syntax stack-unit renumber Command Mode EXEC Privilege Note: Renumbering the stack manager triggers a failover, as shown in Message 1.
