Re: How to remove old HP switch in stacked mode ?
No worries Eric,
In the Putty console,:
AV_Switch_1# stacking
factory-reset Erase the startup config and all knowledge of other
stack members.
set-stack Makes the inactive stack active.
AV_Switch_1#
My intention is to remove the member 2 (old switch) and put back the replacement switch from HP into the stacking mode with the 48 ports as the commander :
AV_Switch_1# show stack
Stack ID : 0100c434-6b8f0e40
MAC Address : c4346b-8f0e4b
Stack Topology : Chain
Stack Status : Fragment Inactive
Uptime : 0d 0h 14m
Software Version : WB.15.11.0007
Mbr
ID Mac Address Model Pri Status
--- ------------- -------------------------------------- --- ---------------
1 c4346b-8f0e40 HP J9729A 2920-48G-POE+ Switch 128 Commander 2 c4346b-970ec0 HP J9726A 2920-24G Switch 128 Missing
3 c4346b-8838c0 HP J9726A 2920-24G Switch 128 Standby
so the command is set-stack ?
do I have to remove the missing switch first or set-stack first ?

Solutionyes, use the "stacking set-stack" to re-activate the stack. The switches will start functioning again. Then you can use the "stacking member 2 remove" from the config prompt to remove the old switch from the config.
The only issue will be that from here on out you will have two members of the stack, labeled 1 & 3. If you want them to be consecutive, 1 & 2, do this from the config prompt once the stack is active again and the missing / old switch is removed:
stacking member 3 shutdown
stacking member 2 J9726A mac-address c4346b-8838c0
You may have to power cycle the 24 port switch.
When it comes back up, you should have a stack of two switches with the 48 port switch being member 1 and the 24 port switch being member 2.

Re: How to remove old HP switch in stacked mode ?
Many thakns for the assistance Eric,
AV_Switch_1(config)# show stacking
Stack ID : 0200c434-6b8f0e40
MAC Address : c4346b-8838e3
Stack Topology : Chain
Stack Status : Active
Uptime : 0d 0h 6m
Software Version : WB.15.11.0007

1 c4346b-8f0e40 HP J9729A 2920-48G-POE+ Switch 128 Standby
3 c4346b-8838c0 HP J9726A 2920-24G Switch 128 Commander
AV_Switch_1(config)#
now the commander role is hold by the 24 port switch which I haven't swap the member ID.
so If I issue the command below:
stacking member 3 shutdown
stacking member 2 J9726A mac-address c4346b-8838c0
would that be working because it is shutting down the switch first then rename the member ID number ?

Re: How to remove old HP switch in stacked mode ?
No, that's not normal. The PS light indicates that there is a problem with the power supply. But the 2920 only has one power supply. Are you using an external power supply? If so, make sure that both the external and internal power supplies are connected and plugged into a functional outlet.
I assume you are just using the internal power supply. If that is the case, try removing it and re installing it making sure it gets fully inserted. Remove the power cord first. This will power cycle the switch.
Otherwise, you may have to contact support to get a replacement.

Re: How to remove old HP switch in stacked mode ?
yes, there is only one PSU and I'm using the same PSU unit, the switch itself has been replaced.
I guess this time I must log the request to replace the PSU.

Your doubts were already answered here.
Using a 2 years old thread born around the Stacking for Management purposes topic...isn't - for sure - a good way to look for help by others Community members.
