4 Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks In addition to their working as individual stand-alone switches, OmniSwitch 6850 Series switches can also be linked together to work as a single virtual chassis known as a stack. With stacks, users can easily expand their switching capacity simply by adding additional switches to the stack. In addition, stacks provide enhanced resiliency and redundancy features. For more information, refer to page 4-3. Note.
In This Chapter Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks In This Chapter This chapter provides information on OmniSwitch 6850 Series switches configured to operate as a single virtual chassis. Topics described in the chapter include: • OmniSwitch 6850 Series stack overview on page 4-3. • Roles within the stack on page 4-3. • Stack cabling on page 4-16. • Slot numbering on page 4-20. • Hot-Swapping modules in a stack on page 4-25. • Reloading switches on page 4-27.
Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stack Overview OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stack Overview Users can configure up to eight OmniSwitch 6850 Series switches, in any combination of OS6850-24 and OS6850-48 chassis types, into a single virtual chassis known as a stack. With stacks, switching capacity can be easily expanded simply by adding additional switches to the stack.
Roles Within the Stack Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Important Note. For management module redundancy to work effectively, the software on all switches operating in the stack must be synchronized at all times. Refer to “Synchronizing Switches in a Stack” on page 4-37 for more information. Primary 1 A stack of four OmniSwitch 6850 Series switches is operating normally. The stack consists of a primary module, secondary module, and two elements operating in idle status.
Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Roles Within the Stack 1 A stack of two OmniSwitch 6850 Series switches is operating normally. The stack consists of a primary module and a secondary module. (The software on both elements in the stack is synchronized.) 2 The primary management module fails or is taken offline (e.g., powered off or rebooted by the user). 3 The switch operating as the secondary management module immediately takes over the primary role.
Roles Within the Stack Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Primary Management Module Selection For a stack of OmniSwitch 6850 Series switches to operate as a virtual chassis, there must be a mechanism for dynamically selecting the switch within the stack that will assume the primary management role. OmniSwitch 6850 Series switches use three different methods for selecting the primary switch. These methods are: • Chassis MAC address • Saved slot number • Chassis uptime Note.
Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Roles Within the Stack Using Saved Slot Information The saved slot number is the slot number the switch will assume following a reboot. This information is stored in a switch’s boot.slot.cfg file; the switch reads its slot number assignment from this file at bootup and assumes the specified slot number within the stack.
Roles Within the Stack Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Using Switch Uptime A user can override both the MAC address and saved slot methods for determining a stack’s primary management module. This is done by controlling the uptime of switches in the stack. If all elements of a stack are powered off, the user can force a particular switch to become primary by powering on that switch and waiting a minimum of 15 seconds before powering on any other switches.
Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Roles Within the Stack Secondary Management Module Selection In order to provide effective management module redundancy, all OmniSwitch 6850 Series stacked configurations dynamically assign a backup, or secondary, management module during the boot process. OmniSwitch 6850 Series stacks use two different methods for selecting the secondary switch.
Roles Within the Stack Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Using Saved Slot Information If a stack with preassigned slot information for each switch is booted, the switch with the second lowest slot value is assigned the secondary management role. For example, if a stack of four switches is booted and the preassigned slot values for each switch are 1, 2, 3, and 4, the switch with the slot value of 2 is assigned the secondary role.
Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Roles Within the Stack Idle Module Role Switches that are not assigned either the primary or secondary role in a stack are, by default, assigned the role of idle modules. These idle modules operate similarly to Network Interface (NI) modules in a chassisbased switch such as the OmniSwitch 9700/9800. It is the job of idle modules to send and receive 10/100/1000 Ethernet traffic on their.
Roles Within the Stack Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Pass-Through Mode The pass-through mode is a state in which a switch has attempted to join a stack but has been denied primary, secondary, and idle status. When a switch is in the pass-through mode, its Ethernet are brought down (i.e, they cannot pass traffic). Its stacking cable connections remain fully functional and can pass traffic through to other switches in the stack.
Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Roles Within the Stack To avoid a pass-through condition following a reboot, make sure that all saved slot values for the stack are unique. Use the stack set slot command.
Roles Within the Stack Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks To resolve this pass-through condition, simply assign slot 1001 a new saved slot value and reboot the module.
Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Roles Within the Stack In some pass-through conditions (for example, larger stacks where multiple switches are in pass-through mode), it might be desirable to correct any duplicate saved slot assignments and then reboot the entire stack. The recovery from pass-through can be accomplished with fewer steps than reassigning slot numbers and rebooting modules on a slot-by-slot basis.
Stack Cabling Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Stack Cabling Switches in a stack are connected to each other by stacking cables. The stacking cables come in various sizes as listed below and provide high-speed, dual-redundant links between switches in a stack. Cable Description OS6850-CBL-30 30 centimeters long stacking cable. OS6850-CBL-60 60 centimeters long stacking cable. OS6850-CBL-150 150 centimeters long stacking cable. OS6850-CBL-300 300 centimeters long stacking cable.
Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Stack Cabling Note. When planning the stack cabling configuration, keep in mind that the switch connected to stacking port A of the primary switch will be assigned the secondary management role by default. A B A stack of eight switches in a crossed (stacking port A to stacking port B) configuration. Note that a redundant stacking cable connection exists between the top and bottom switches. This connection is required for effective redundancy across the stack.
Stack Cabling Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks The figure below shows how the redundant connection between the top and bottom switches in the stack ensures that data will continue to flow throughout the stack, even in the event of a connection failure at one of the stacking cables. Stacking Cables Chassis Front 1 Data enters slot 1 via a 10/100/1000 Ethernet port. The data is passed to slot 2 over the stacking cable connection, then exits slot 2 via one of its 10/100/1000 Ethernet.
Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Stack Cabling Redundant stacking cables provide a form of dual redundancy. As shown in the figure above, the redundant cable allows traffic to flow in the event of a stacking link failure. The redundant cable also provides failover if a switch goes down within the stack.
Slot Numbering Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Slot Numbering For a stack of OmniSwitch 6850 Series switches to operate as a virtual chassis, each module in the stack must be assigned a unique slot number. To view the current slot assignments for a stack, use the show ni or show module commands. The slot number is also displayed on the front panel of each switch by the LED located on the left side of the chassis (refer to “Status LEDs” on page 2-54 for more information).
Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Slot Numbering Dynamic Slot Number Assignment Dynamic slot number assignment occurs when there are no boot.slot.cfg files present in the switches’ /flash directories. This is the case for new, “out of the box,” switches that have not been previously booted. When a brand new stack (or stack with no boot.slot.cfg files) is booted, the system software automatically detects the module with the lowest MAC address.
Slot Numbering Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks If the switch with the lowest MAC address happens to be the bottom-most module in the stack, slot numbering will not resume from the top of the stack. Instead, the system software will select the secondary module using the standard method (i.e., the switch connected to the primary’s stacking port A), then continue to number the stack from the bottom up. This intuitive slot assignment provides the cleanest and most manageable stack topology.
Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Slot Numbering Manual Slot Number Assignment To manually assign slot numbers to one or more modules in a stack, use the stack set slot command. This command writes slot information to the boot.slot.cfg file located in a switch’s /flash directory. It is this saved slot information that the switch will assume following a reboot.
Slot Numbering Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks When the stack comes up following the reboot, the manually-configured slot numbers display as follows: Slot 1 - Primary Slot 2 - Secondary Slot 3 - Idle Slot 4 - Idle Slot 5 - Idle Slot 6 - Idle Slot 7 - Idle Slot 8 - Idle The stack set slot command can also be used to manually correct duplicate saved slot assignments within the stack topology. Refer to pages 4-12 through 4-14 for detailed information.
Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Hot-Swapping Modules In a Stack Hot-Swapping Modules In a Stack As with chassis-based switches, such as the OmniSwitch 9700/9800, NI modules within an OmniSwitch 6850 Series virtual chassis are hot-swappable. NI modules are essentially those modules operating in the stack in idle mode. These modules can be removed from, or added to, an existing stack without disrupting other modules in the stack.
Hot-Swapping Modules In a Stack Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Merging Stacks Merging stacks involves connecting two or more operational stacks and attempting to reboot them as a single virtual chassis. In most cases, errors will result. To merge stacks without causing errors, select one stack that is to remain up and running and then add modules from the other stack(s) by following the steps below: 1 Make sure all switches are running the same software version.
Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Reloading Switches Reloading Switches Reloading is essentially a soft boot of a switch. Users can reload stacked modules operating in any role— i.e., primary, secondary, idle, and pass-through. Refer to the sections below for more information. Reloading the Primary Management Module If the switch with the primary management role is reloaded, the switch with the secondary role automatically takes over primary management functions.
Reloading Switches Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks If there are only two switches in the stack, the switch that was reloaded (the former primary) assumes the secondary role when it comes back up. 1 In this stack of two OmniSwitch 6850 Series switches, the slot 1 Primary - Slot 1 switch is the primary management module. The slot 2 switch is the secondary. Secondary - Slot 2 2 The user reloads the stack’s primary management module by issuing -> reload primary the reload primary command.
Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Reloading Switches Reloading the Secondary Management Module If the switch with secondary management role is reloaded, the idle switch with the lowest slot number will automatically assume the secondary role. The reloaded switch (the former secondary) will assume an idle role when it comes back up. Meanwhile, the switch with the primary management role, as well as any other idle modules in the stack, continue operations without interruption.
Reloading Switches Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks If there are only two switches in the stack, the switch that was reloaded (the former secondary) resumes the secondary role when it comes back up. Primary - Slot 1 Secondary - Slot 2 1 In this stack of two OmniSwitch 6850 Series switches, the slot 1 switch is the primary management module. The slot 2 switch is the secondary. 2 The user reloads the stack’s secondary management module by -> reload secondary issuing the reload secondary command.
Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Reloading Switches Reloading Switches with Idle Roles Similar to reloading Network Interface (NI) modules on chassis-based switches such as the OmniSwitch 9700/9800, modules operating in idle status within a stack can be reloaded via the CLI. Note. Any traffic being passed on the module’s Ethernet will be interrupted during the reboot. Other modules within the stack will continue to operate without interruption.
Reloading Switches Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Reloading All Switches in a Stack Reloading all switches in the stack is essentially a full reboot of the virtual chassis. This can be useful in restoring a stack’s previously configured topology—i.e., the stack’s saved slot numbers and management roles. Note, however, that all data flow on the stack is interrupted whenever a full reboot is issued. To reset all switches in a stack use the reload all command. For example: -> reload all Important.
Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Reloading Switches No Switches In the Stack Have Saved Slot Information If a full reload is issued and no switches in the stack have unique slot numbers, slot numbers will be assigned beginning with the switch with the lowest MAC address. (This can occur if the boot.slot.cfg file has been deleted from each switch’s /flash directory—e.g., by issuing the stack clear slot command for all modules in the stack.
Reloading Switches Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Avoiding Split Stacks The term “splitting” a stack refers to the creation of isolated modules within the virtual chassis. A split stack can result from the following conditions: • Two or more non-adjacent switches are reloaded simultaneously • The stack is reloaded without a redundant stacking cable connection The sections below offer simple guidelines for avoiding splitting the stack during the reload process.
Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Changing the Secondary Module to Primary Changing the Secondary Module to Primary OmniSwitch 6850 Series stacks allow users to manually force the secondary switch to assume the primary management role. This is referred to as “takeover.” The behavior of a takeover is similar to that of reloading the primary management module (see page 4-27). Whenever a takeover is initiated, the switch with the secondary role automatically takes over primary management functions.
Changing the Secondary Module to Primary Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks If there are only two switches in the stack, the former primary switch resumes the secondary role when it comes back up following the takeover. Primary - Slot 1 Secondary - Slot 2 1 In this stack of two OmniSwitch 6850 Series switches, the slot 1 switch is the primary management module. The slot 2 switch is the secondary.
Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Synchronizing Switches in a Stack Synchronizing Switches in a Stack Management module synchronization refers to the process of copying all files in the /flash/working and /flash/certified directories of the primary management module to the /flash/working and /flash/certified directories of all the other switches in the stack. The system and configuration software on the nonprimary switches—i.e.
Monitoring the Stack Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Monitoring the Stack As shown in the previous sections, monitoring the current status and operation of all elements in a stack can help users avoid unexpected stack conditions. The table below includes CLI commands that are useful in monitoring stack conditions. CLI Commands Used for Monitoring a Stack show stack topology Displays the current operating topology of switches within a stack.
Managing OmniSwitch 6850 Series Stacks Monitoring the Stack CLI Commands Supported on Both Primary and Secondary Management Modules Although most CLI commands are executed when logged into the switch with the primary management role, there is a group of commands that is supported when logged in to either the primary or secondary management module. For a list of these commands, refer to the tables below. Note.
