I just deployed two stacked SG500X switches. I noticed these messages in the log (see below). Despite these messages everything appears to be functioning. Any idea what they mean?
Here's a snippet:

So, it seems that when the second stacking cable was added it didn't change from chain mode to ring mode. I'm not sure if that was a side effect of the problem or the cause. Maybe there's something wrong with that stack cable or maybe not. I ended up moving it to a different set of switches and used a different cable on this set and both sets of switches are working fine now without the warning messages.
