Hi, Yes, OS 10 does not support stacking currently. You would have to use OS 9 or a different OS. VLT would still use STP to block some ports so there is not a loop.
Hi, I'm about to buy this very same model and had the intention of stacking both units. Are you removing the functionality from OS or was just a problem with version 10 that will be fixed?
Dell Data Sheet says that stacking is supported on S-Series and does not indicate which ones do not.
Weird to me that a version upgrade would see a significant feature lost. Seems a bit or poor insight to exclude the capability. What happened to the Dev team with the changes?
Is there a date or roadmap to when OS10 will support it again?
Have a pair of S4128F's and no idea what to do with them anymore.
S-Series support the stack mode with OS9. Not OS10.
From what I know, there is nothing planned to support stacking in the OS10.
In my point of view, VLT is better than stack for the datacenter. You could update switch if servers are dual attached whitout impacting production (for example).

Feeling a bit of concern here.
