Removing a Unit from a Stack

The running-configuration and startup-configuration are synchronized on all stack units. A stack member that is disconnected from the stack maintains this configuration.

To remove a stack member from the stack, disconnect the stacking cables from the unit. You may do this at any time, whether the unit is powered or unpowered, online or offline.
NOTE If you remove a unit in the middle of the daisy chain stack, the stack is split into multiple parts and each forms a new stack according to the stacking algorithm described throughout this chapter.

Examples of Removing a Stack Member (Before and After)

The following example shows removing a stack member (before).

NOTE Each unit in the stack has a stack number that is either assigned by you or Dell EMC Networking OS. To manually renumber stack members, use the stack-unit old-unit-number renumber new-unit-number command. Renumbering stack members causes the entire stack to reload.
