stack unconfigure
- stack-unit
- Specifies the numerical ID of a stack member. This option is available on the active controller only.
- me
- Specifies the stack member from which the command is executed. The command removes the unit from the stack and boots it up as a standalone. When the unit rejoins the stack, its standalone startup-config file is saved in a backup file. This option is available on stack member consoles only.
Privileged EXEC mode
When a stack unit that did not have an original startup configuration file is unconfigured,
it becomes a clean unit. It is possible that this unit could automatically rejoin
the stack if its module configuration matches the configuration of the active controller.
To prevent this from happening accidentally, disconnect the unit to be unconfigured,
and then issue the
stack unconfigure me command on it.
In the following example, stack unit 3 is unconfigured in a traditional stack.
