  • 1.  STACK Switches enterd in recovary mode.

    We have 6 switches in a stack, and the conductor switch failed due to a hardware issue. However, the remaining 5 switches entered recovery mode.

    What could be the reason the other switches entered recovery mode?

    Hello,

    I assume you are talking about AOS-CX devices and VSF stack: I think for some reason there is no secondary vsf member there in you stack which can cause this behaviour?!?

    you can refer to the VSF BEST PRACTICES FOR ARUBA CX switches

    But as JL24 mentioned you need to configure "vsf secondary-member" so  that the secondary member then always be defined to assume the VSF-Standby role.
