discovering the reload reason for a specific switch in a stack

Alex-Pr

Is there a way to tell why a switch within a stack rebooted?

 

I have a stack of 2960X's and the non master switch has rebooted.  I am trying to figure out why.

 

When doing Show Version, the uptime and reload reason is based on when the overall stack last booted which was a while ago.

 

When I check the directory of flash2:/ (or even flash1) there is no crash file.

 

Both switches are plugged into the same UPS and the power cables seem solid...

 

Thanks

show version give you the uptime and reason of the switch, if the switch is crashed you may see crash logs in flashX: X is switch number ( since you mentioned there no crash) its hard to define what went wrong.

 

show logg from master you can see why it was rebooted ? also you can connect the console the rebooted switch and check

Maybe you can look at the log of the member switch by using the session command "session x" from the master.
