Adding a Unit to an Existing PE Stack
You can add a stack unit to an existing stack as follows:
1 Disconnect a stack cable from the stack’s ring topology. Re-attach the cable to a stacking port on the back panel of the new unit.
2 Attach a cable from the second stack port on the new unit to the stack port on a unit in the ring.
3 Power on the new unit.
After the new unit loads and the parent C9010 discovers it, the precongured software settings download from the C9010. The new unit
functions as part of the stack.
Renumbering a Stack Unit
By default, the number of a PE stack unit is 0. After you create and power on a PE stack, the units automatically number from 0 to 7,
starting at 0. To change the default or automatically assigned stack unit number, use the pe renumber command.
NOTE
: You can renumber a unit only when it is online and if no unit with the new stack-unit number is online.
• Congure a stack-unit number.
EXEC Privilege mode
pe pe-id stack-unit unit-id renumber unit-id
Where:
• pe pe-id is the PE ID number. The range is from 0 to 255.
• stack-unit unit-id is the stack-unit ID number. The range is from 0 to 7.
• renumber renumber is the new stack-unit ID.
Dell# pe 200 stack-unit 3 renumber 5
Renumbering the stack master triggers a stack reload, as shown in the following message. When the stack comes back online, the master
unit remains the management unit.
Renumbering management unit will reload the stack.
WARNING: Interface configuration for current unit will be lost!
