Stacking Commands
23
ProSafe Managed Switch
Note: If the management unit is renumbered, then the running
configuration is no longer applied (that is, the stack acts as if the
configuration had been cleared).
movemanagement
This command moves the Primary Management Unit functionality from one switch to another.
The <fromunit> is the switch identifier on the current Primary Management Unit. The
<tounit> is the switch identifier on the new Primary Management Unit. Upon execution,
the entire stack (including all interfaces in the stack) is unconfigured and reconfigured with
the configuration on the new Primary Management Unit. After the reload is complete, all
stack management capability must be performed on the new Primary Management Unit. To
preserve the current configuration across a stack move, execute the copy
system:running-config nvram:startup-config (in Privileged EXEC) command
before performing the stack move. A stack move causes all routes and layer 2 addresses to
be lost. This command is executed on the Primary Management Unit. The system prompts
you to confirm the management move.
Note: The movemanagement command does not NSF (non-stop
forwarding). To move the management unit to the backup unit, use
initiate failover instead. For more information, see initiate
failover on page 33.
