Automation for Adding/Replacing Stack
Nodes
A new automated process allows you to easily add or replace nodes in a stack.
This automation performs the following tasks in a stack:
- Adds New Nodes—When new
switches are attached to an existing stack, adds those switches to the stack
without manual configuration.
- Incompatible ExtremeXOS
Check—Checks for and resolves incompatible ExtremeXOS software versions
of stack nodes.
- License Mismatch
Check—Checks for and resolves software license mismatches between all
master-capable nodes.
Supported Platforms
Summit X450-G2, X460-G2, X670-G2, X770, and ExtremeSwitching X440-G2, X590, X620,
X690, X870 series switches.
Limitations
- Except for the Summit X450-G2 and X460-G2
with VIM2-SS modules, all switches require that you configure stacking on the
stacking ports manually (configure stackingsupport stack-port [stack-ports | all] selection [native {V80 | V160} | V320 |V400} | alternate]).
- License mismatches due to installing feature
licenses cannot be automatically resolved. The node is left in the failed
state.
