Stack modification

[simc92]

Hi,

I have a stack of two cisco 9300-48p in production.

Switch#   Role    Mac Address     Priority Version  State
---------------------------------------------------------
*1       Active   xxxx.xxxx.xxxx     15     V03     Ready
 2       Standby  yyyy.yyyy.yyyy     13     V03     Ready

I need to replace the second 9300-48p with a 9300-24P.

Is it okay if I do it like this :

• disconnect the second Cisco 9300-48p from the power

On the master 9300-48p :

• no switch 2 provision
• wr
• reload

Power on the 9300-24p (not connected with stack cable)

• switch 1 priority 13
• switch 1 renumber 2
• wr
• reload
• connect the 9300-24p to the master 9300-48p with stack cable

Thank you.

You can turn off second switch, remove the provision wth model if confifgured.

remove the stack cables

On New 24 port swich, make sure it has same IOS code as masster switch,

Prepare the switch with console vable - change switch number 2 and  priority 14 offline, wr config.

connect cable to master switch, and power on that should work

Note you have same simlar step, i change only priority 14 to be in line and version code to be same always..

Hi,

The procedure you have here should work. Just make sure the new switch has the same exact IOS and license level as the master before you make the change.
