Managing Switch Stacks

The stack dialogs are essentially the same as their corresponding switch dialogs, except for the Select Switch for Initial Configuration pull-down menu is added to each dialog. The stack dialogs display the information for the switch selected in the Select Switch for Initial Configuration pull-down menu. Choose another switch in the pull-down menu to display information for that switch. The switch configuration displayed is the configuration that will be applied to all other switches in the stack after you click the OK button. The following operations are available to configure the stack as a single entity:

Date/time and Network Time Protocol (NTP) settings. Refer to ”Setting the Date/Time and Enabling NTP Client” on page 4-16for more information.

Firmware load and activation. Refer to ”Installing Firmware” on page 4-42for more information.

Switch reset. Refer to ”Resetting a Switch” on page 4-16for more information.

Edit zoning configuration. Refer to ”Configuring the Zoning Database” on page 3-46for more information.

Editing user accounts. Refer to ”Managing User Accounts” on page 4-1for more information.

SNMP configuration. Refer to ”SNMP Configuration” on page 4-31for more information.

Syslog configuration. Refer to ”Syslog” on page 4-35for more information. Additional stack operations include:

Refresh the stack to update the faceplate display with current information for all switches in the stack

Select all ports on all switches in the stack

Remove a switch from a stack. Choose this option after a switch no longer has a 10-Gbps link. The switch icon is moved from the stack icon and becomes a single switch icon in the topology display.
