Removing a Stack Member Using Template

You can remove a stack member using the template. It involves completing procedures both in Aruba Central (on-premises) and on the switch directly.

To remove a stack member using the template, complete the following steps:

  1. Shut down the member in the stack.
  2. Disconnect the physical VSF links from the member you want to remove.
  3. Reconnect the physical links of remaining members in the stack in the ring or chain topology.
  4. In the Aruba Central (on-premises) template, delete the VSF configuration and interface configurations of the member.
  5. Save the template. Once the configuration is pushed to the conductor, the member will be removed from the stack.
  6. Verify the status of the member deletion using switch monitoring pages. For more information, see Switch > Overview > Summary and Monitoring AOS-CX Switch Stacks.

Member 1 in the stack cannot be removed from the template.
