Chapter 8: Verifying the Status of VCStack

Verifying the Status of VCStack
Before cabling slots S1/27 and S2/28 to build the stack, you should first
test the switches to determine whether the VCStack feature is enabled or
disabled, and enable it on any units where it is disabled. On new switches,
the feature should be activated because that is the default setting. But on
switches that were previously used as stand-alone units, the feature is
probably disabled and needs to be enabled.
To test the status of VCStack, you simply power on a switch and watch the
ID LED. If it displays a number from 1 to 4, VCStack is already enabled. If
the LED displays the number 0, the feature is disabled and needs to be
enabled.
To test the status of VCStack, perform the following procedure:
1. Power on one of the switches.
2. Wait one minute for the switch to initialize its management software,
or, see “Monitoring the Switch Initialization Process” on page 71 for
instructions on how to watch the initialization process in action.
3. View the ID LED and do one of the following:
If the ID LED is displaying a number from 1 to 4 (1 is the default),
VCStack is already enabled on the switch. Power off the DC circuit
and test the remaining switches in the same manner. After testing
all the switches, be sure the switches are powered off, then go to
Chapter 9, “Cabling the Stacking Ports” on page 95.
If the ID LED is displaying “0,” the VCStack feature is disabled on
the switch. You must enable it by performing the procedure in
“Activating the VCStack Feature” on page 93.
