OS Command-Line Reference Guide.
The following is a list of the Dell Networking OS version history for this command.

9.9(0.0) Introduced on the C9010.
Usage Information
You can pre-provision a port extender stack unit using the stack unit command in the PE configuration mode
and specify the stack-unit type. Only similar types of stack units are provisioned under a single port extender. The
maximum number of stack units allowed for provisioning is 8. In a PE stack, by default, the stack unit with the
highest MAC address is elected master; the stack unit with the second highest MAC address is elected standby.
To change the default master and standby assignment, you can assign stack-unitpriority value. If multiple
units tie for the highest priority, the unit with the highest MAC address is elected master.
In the following example, stack-unit 0 with priority 14 is the master and stack-unit 1 with priority 13 is the
standby.
NOTE: You can configure a stack-unit priority only when the unit is online.
Example (stack-
unit priority)

Dell(conf-pe-2)#stack-unit 1 priority 13
