Code Mismatch
If a unit is added to a stack and it does not have the same version of code as that of the master, the
following should happen:
• “New” unit will boot up and become a “member” of the stack
• Ports on the added unit should remain in the “detached” state
• A message should appear on the CLI indicating a code mismatch with the newly added unit.
• To have the newly added unit to merge normally with the stack, code should be loaded to the
newly added unit from the master using the copy command. The newly added member should
then be reset, and should reboot normally and join the stack.
