One switch in a stack set to manual boot - how to make auto remotely

[ed.fotheringham]

I have a 2 switch stack of 2960s in a remote office.

One of the stack is set to manual boot, so if there is a local power outage when the powerr comes back it just gets to the "switch>" prompt and that's it until you attach to the console and type "boot"

It isn't the active switch in the stack at the moment

Question is how can I change it to auto boot without visiting site and attaching to its console port?

I can't see any commands to address a specific switch's boot mode, help

Many thanks

Hi there,

Whilst the switch is operational, issue the configuration command:

!
no boot manual
!

cheers,

Seb.

If you are at the switch# prompt, perform these steps to allow the switch to boot automatically.

1. Enter the Global Configuration Mode. Issue the no boot manual to inform the switch to boot automatically.

   Switch#configure terminal
   Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
   Switch(config)#no boot manual
   

2. Go back to the privileged EXEC mode and save the configuration with the write memory command.

   Switch(config)#end
   Switch#
   Switch#write memory
   Building configuration...
   [OK]
