switch provision
Use the switch provision global configuration command on the stack master to provision (to supply a
configuration to) a new switch before it joins the switch stack. Use the no form of this command to delete
all configuration information associated with the removed switch (a stack member that has left the
stack).
switch stack-member-number provision type
no switch stack-member-number provision
Syntax Description
Defaults The switch is not provisioned.
Command Modes Global configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines To avoid receiving an error message, you must remove the specified switch from the switch stack before
using the no form of this command to delete a provisioned configuration.
To change the switch type, you must also remove the specified switch from the switch stack. You can
change the stack member number of a provisioned switch that is physically present in the switch stack
if you do not also change the switch type.
If the switch type of the provisioned switch does not match the switch type in the provisioned
configuration on the stack, the switch stack applies the default configuration to the provisioned switch
and adds it to the stack. The switch stack displays a message when it applies the default configuration.
Provisioned information appears in the running configuration of the switch stack. When you enter the
copy running-config startup-config privileged EXEC command, the provisioned configuration is
saved in the startup configuration file of the switch stack.
Caution When you use this command, memory is allocated for the provisioned configuration. When a new switch
type is configured, the previously allocated memory is not fully released. Therefore, do not use this
command more than approximately 200 times, or the switch will run out of memory and unexpected
behavior will result.
stack-member-number Specify the stack member number. The range is 1 to 9.
provision type Specify the switch type of the new switch before it joins the stack.
For type, enter the model number of a supported switch that is listed in
the command-line help strings.
