Problem with 3650 stack

Hi,

I try to add a new member to existing stack and I can’t because on the a new member  at the console I can see log

STACKMGR-1-RELOAD: Reloading due to reason active removed before switch became ready.  

What does “Reloading due to reason active removed before switch became ready” mean?

  1. Break the stack.
  2. Break into ROMmon.
  3. Format the flash: 
  4. Re-install the IOS using the Emergency Recovery proceedure.
  5. Once the IOS has been installed correctly, power down the switch, install the stacking cable and power up the switch.

Pull the power to the new stack member and leave it off for about 5 seconds and then plug it back in.

I did as you suggested but unfortunately the problem is the same.

  1. Break the stack.
  2. Break into ROMmon.
  3. Format the flash: 
  4. Re-install the IOS using the Emergency Recovery proceedure.
  5. Once the IOS has been installed correctly, power down the switch, install the stacking cable and power up the switch.

i did as you wrote and It works. I'm very grateful for your help.
