Chapter5 Managing Switch Stacks
Understanding Switch Stacks

You can use the archive-download-sw /allow-feature-upgrade privileged EXEC command to

allow installing an different software image.

Auto-Upgrade and Auto-Advise Example Messages

When you add a switch that has a different minor version number to the switch stack, the software

displays messages in sequence (assuming that there are no other system messages generated by the

switch).

This example shows that the switch stack detected a new switch that is running a different minor version

number than the switch stack. Auto-copy starts, finds suitable software to copy from a stack member to

the switch in VM mode, upgrades the switch in VM mode, and then reloads it:
