Using a Member’s CLI to make the Member Commander of a new stack

This procedure requires that you first remove the Member from its current stack, then create the new stack.

NOTE:

If you do not know the MAC address for the Commander of the current stack, use show stack to list it.

Syntax:


no stack join <MAC address>

stack commander <stack name>

Suppose a switch named Bering Sea is a Member of a stack named Big_Waters. To use the CLI to convert it from stack Member to Commander of a new stack named "Lakes", use the above commands as shown in the following example.
