Syntax: show statistics stack-ports
Table 36
describes the fields displayed by the show statistics stack-ports command.
Adding, removing, or replacing units in an IronStack
The following sections describe how to add, remove, or replace units in an IronStack. The
recommended method is to connect units to the stack before you supply power to the units,
however, you can also connect powered units.
Installing a new unit in an IronStack using secure-setup
This method can be applied to clean units, or units that have existing configurations.
1. Connect the new unit to the stack by connecting the 10 Gbps stacking ports.
2. Run secure-setup on the Active Controller and assign an ID to the new unit. The Active
Controller will reset the new unit.
3. Once the new unit boots and joins the stack, do a write memory on the Active Controller.
Installing a new unit using static configuration
If the new unit is a clean unit and the connection is sequential you can add it using the static setup
process.
1. Enter the module configuration of the new unit into the Active Controller configuration.
2. Connect the new unit to the stack using the 10Gbps stacking ports. The sequence in which you
connect the unit must match that of the Active Controller configuration. The Active Controller
automatically resets the unit.
3. Once the new unit boots and joins the stack, do a write memory on the Active Controller. You
should see the following message.
Done hot swap: Set stack unit 3 to Fully-Operational:16
Configuration notes
Configuration on a new unit can be accomplished in three ways:
•
If the Active Controller has no configuration information for the new unit, it learns the new
unit's configuration. This is a dynamic configuration and will disappear if the new unit leaves
the stack. In order for the configuration to stay on the Active Controller (to make it a static
configuration), you must do a write memory on the Active Controller.
