Troubleshoot an S-Series Stack
To troubleshoot an S-Series stack, use the following recovery tasks.
• Recover from Stack Link Flaps
• Recover from a Card Problem State on an S-Series Stack
Recover from Stack Link Flaps
S-Series stack link integrity monitoring enables units to monitor their own stack ports and disable any
stack port that flaps five times within 10 seconds.
Dell Networking OS displays console messages for the local and remote members of a flapping link, and
on the primary (master) and standby management units as KERN-2-INT messages if the flapping port
belongs to either of these units.
In the following example, a stack-port on the master flaps. The remote member, Member 2, displays a
console message, and the master and standby display KERN-2-INT messages.
To re-enable the downed stack-port, power cycle the offending unit.
