Chapter 3 Troubleshooting
Replacing a Failed Stack Member
Caution
This procedure clears the IP address and all configuration information stored on the switch. Do not
follow this procedure unless you want to completely reconfigure the switch.
To reset the switch:
1.
At the switch prompt, enter enable, and press Return or Enter.
2.
At the Privileged EXEC prompt, switch#, enter setup and press Return or Enter.
The switch displays the prompt to run the initial configuration dialog. The switch now behaves like an
unconfigured switch.
Replacing a Failed Stack Member
If you need to replace a failed stack member, you can hot swap or replace the switch by following this
procedure:
1.
Get a replacement switch that has the same model number as the failed switch.
2.
Remove the failed switch.
3.
Install the replacement switch in the blade server.
If you manually set the member numbers for any members in the stack, you need to manually assign
the replacement switch with the same member number as the failed switch. To manually assign the
member number, install the replacement switch and wait for it to boot up. Use the CLI to manually
assign the member number (see the software configuration guide for instructions) before you
connect the switch to the stack.
4.
Connect the switch to the stack.
5.
Reinstall any transceiver modules and cable connections.
6.
Make the same Gigabit Ethernet connections on the replacement switch that were on the failed
switch.
7.
Power on the replacement switch.
The replacement switch will have the same configuration for all the interfaces as the failed switch and
will function the same as the failed switch.
Locating the Switch Serial Number
If you contact Cisco Technical Assistance, you need to know the serial number of your switch. Use these
figures to locate the serial number on your switch. You can also use the show version command to get
