Last night I attempted to put my two Catalyst 9500-48Y4C into Stackwise Virtual. One switch is in production and the other one we were adding to it. After some research I was not able to find a command that sets the priority the way you might in regular Stackwise with the cables.
For Example:
Max-9500-1#switch priority ?
<1-15> Switch Priority
From the research I found, the switch that boots up first is supposed to become the primary, with the second switch joining as the standby. However, that didn’t happen in our case. We rebooted the switches in that order, but the secondary switch took over as the primary and ended up overwriting the configuration on the production switch.
Am I missing something here? Is there a reliable way to ensure that the production switch takes control as the active device during the next boot?
