Cloning within a Stack

To clone within a stack, you can either:

Run the synchronize {slot slotid} command, which invokes the clone.py script. You can only clone one slot/switch at a time. For more information, see synchronize in the Switch Engine 32.2 Command Reference Guide .
Run the clone.py script directly, which allows you to specify multiple slots/switches. If more than one slot is specified, the master is cloned to each slot one at a time.

To clone within a stack by running the clone.py script directly, on the master switch, enter the command:

run script clone.py slot slotlist

Where slotlist can be any number of valid slot positions separated with commas, or all. For example, run script clone.py slot 1,2,3

The following appears on the master switch:

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+                    C A U T I O N                    +
+   Cloning will erase all contents on these slots:   +
+                    1,3,4,5,6,7,8                    +
+     The switch contents of this stacking master     +
+     will replace the contents of these switches     +
