user@device> request virtual-chassis mode fabric mixed local reboot
NOTE: If you are adding a device that turns a non-mixed VCF into a mixed VCF, as the next
step, you must also log in to the VCF and set all of the devices in the VCF into mixed mode.
This step requires a VCF reboot, which incurs some downtime.
NOTE: We recommend that you set the fabric and mixed mode settings, zeroize (if necessary),
and reboot leaf devices before interconnecting them into the VCF to avoid the following
issues:
•
Incurring downtime as the devices reboot to commit the mixed mode or fabric settings.
•
Manually correcting potential issues related to VCF formation because the device did not
immediately join the VCF.
You can, however, use the request virtual-chassis mode fabric local or request virtual-chassis
mode mixed local commands to recover a device that was not set into fabric or mixed mode
before you interconnect it into your VCF.
7. (Required only if you are adding a device that turns a non-mixed VCF into a mixed VCF) Log in to the
VCF and set all devices in the VCF to mixed mode, also configuring all devices to reboot to complete
this step.
user@device> request virtual-chassis mode mixed all-members reboot
The VCF experiences downtime during the reboot.
8. After the device reboots, interconnect the new device into the VCF using supported interfaces that
can be VCPs. The interconnecting links are converted into VCPs automatically.
The new device should be operational shortly after the cabling is complete.
