Cisco Switching/Routing :: Catalyst 3750 Switch Reboots Because Of Stack Failure

May 14, 2008

The Catalyst 3750 switch reboots, and the " Reloading because of stack merge or communication failure" error message appears.

I saw this issue at "Cisco wiki" but the resolution in that page is just "Open a case with TAC". Because of  the reasion is H/W Problem.

Is The resolution only one ? anything else? The 3750 does not use Stack.It is just stand alone. So i think it has other resolution as "disabling Stack" or another one. How about my opinion ? Is the Resolution only "Open a Case with TAC"

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 3750 - Switch Stack Reboots Every 24 Hours

Nov 12, 2011

I have four-switch Cat 3750 stack that has been working reliably for a couple years. Suddenly the other morning it reboots itself, and has been doing so every 24 hours since. take a look at the attached log? This should really be a Smartnet thing, but as it turns out the warranty we have on this is not Smartnet .

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 3750 Stack Master Failure?

Apr 18, 2012

We have a stack of a 3750E with a 3750X, when we turn off the master, a disconnection occurs for around one minute while only one request timeout is seen when the slave is turned off. Is this normal? Details: in other words, when the slave switch is elected as the new master all the port-channels and some physical ports become in 'down' state before reobtaining the up state again, this results in a one minute outage. The question is: is it normal to have a layer2 control traffic interruption when the master fails and re-election occurs and if yes, what is the normal downtime in seconds. the layer2 control information such as port-channels LACP protocol are not synchronised to all slave switches by the master?

if I read the Datasheet of Catalyst 3750X-Series-Switches it is possible to connect a new X-Switch to an existing and old Catalyst 3750-Series Stack.What kind of requirements are needed? Only same IOS-Version in the hole Stack and if possible same Feature-Set? .... like in a normal NOT mixed Stack?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Rolling Stack Upgrade Of Catalyst 3750

Apr 1, 2013

I want to run rolling-stack upgrades on several stacks containing Catalyst 3750X-switches. I have done as follows: Configured the redundant uplinks as active and stand-by.Started to upgrade by using archive download-sw /rolling-stack-upgrade /overwrite /reload The upgrade starts as expected BUT switch number 2 in the stack is reloaded BEFORE switch 1 is finnished, the result is of course downtime for the stack. The documentation says something about the command "boot time", but what is this command doing? The default seems to be 7 minutes, it this parameter the time the upgrade-process waits before booting the next switch in the stack? I would expect that switch number 2 is reloaded when switch 1 is up again after reload, and not after an absolute number of minutes, is the rolling-stack-upgrade not working this way ?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Stack Behaviour Of 3750 Switch

Nov 17, 2012

I configured 3750 A  switch with vlan 20 and its IP address 192.168.20.41Its default gateway was 192.168.20.3Then i configured 3750 B  switch with same default gateway and vlan 20 IP   192.168.20.43My question is now when we stack it becomes single switch and now vlan 20 ip address is 192.168.20.43 thats only IP i can see.So how does stack switch choose vlan 20 IP?Does it choose highest IP address between two switches if they have same vlan 20 as in my case?Also when i go to switch 3750 b by session command and do sh ip route  it does not show ip default gateway .Also it shows vlan 20 as admin down .

Jan 6, 2013

In the current set up I have a LAN stack of 5 3750 switches configured as an access stack. As per the requirement I need to partition the current 5 switch stack into two individual stacks of 3 & 2 switches respectively. Kindly let me know the step by step process withh all the necessary commands, reloads and reconnections. I purpose to do it by changing the priority of current member switch to 15 so that its elected as Master in the new partitioned switch stack. But not sure what all steps required and in which order.

We are having 3750 Stack switch as our edge switch. Here we are having some issues as low memory & itermediate High CPU utilization.For memory when we checked its shwoing maximum memory is allocated to DHCPD receive & ARP Input as follows
 
Processor Pool Total:   70829380 Used:   56809532 Free:   14019848

i want to understand why this 2 proceses (DHCPD & ARP input) taking more memory?High CPU: We also facing intermediate high CPU utilization (above 95%). When CPU is high there were 2 processes consuming more CPU are 'Spanning Tree' (about 20%) & ARP Input (about 66%). we also checked the ARP entries, there were 1500 ARP entries & 2 incomplete ARP (out of 6000 ARP supported)

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 3750 Connect Stack Cables To New Switch

Dec 11, 2011

At a customer i've tried to add a new 3750 switch til a running stack.I used the following proccess:
 
1. connect stack cables to the new switch

2. bootup new switch.
 
Normally the new switch will become a member of the stack, but here, the switch says its the stack master. I can see that the stack port from the old switches connecting the new is up.The only way i could make it work was to provisioning the new switch as switch nr x, save, power off and then connect it and boot it up.The IOS i the same on all switches.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Removing Provisioned Switch - Cat 3750 Stack

Oct 27, 2012

We have a live stack with 4 Cat 3750 switches of mixed varieties.  Switch 1 crashed the other day and didn't come back up.  A power reset brought the switch online again, and switch 2 is now running as the stack master.  We are going to replace switch 1 in a staged approach to minimise client downtime.  Switch 1 is a ws-c3750-48ts and we will be replacing it with a ws-c3750g-48ts.  I will be pre-provisioning and installing the new switch into the stack as switch 5 and configuing the ports to be the same as switch 1.  The cables will then be moved over from switch 1 to switch 5 so the changeover time should be minimal.  When all cutover, I'll power down switch 1, reconfigure the stack cables and remove switch 1 from the stack.
 
My question is to what occurs next.  If I perform a 'no switch 1 provision ws-c3750-48ts' will I be left with switch 2 through to 5 (ie no switch 1)?  I can live with this moving forward.  I know I can renumber switch 5 to be switch 1 if I want, but my understanding is that I have to reload the member switch which is something I'd like to avoid at this stage.  In my reading, I saw the statement - "Note: You cannot use the switch current-stack-member-number renumber new-stack-member-number global configuration command on a provisioned switch. If you do, the command is rejected."  I'm a bit confused by this statement, I'm assuming that it is saying that if I do as above but don't issue the 'no switch 1 provision' command, I cannot renumber switch 5 to switch 1 but as long as I use the 'no switch 1 provision' command first, I can renumber switch 5 to switch 1?  Will all of my switch 5 port configuration information and any associated references (eg port-channel configuration etc) be changed from gi5/0/x to gi1/0/x if I do renumber?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Adding 3750 Switch To Existing Stack?

I am looking to add a new 3750 Switcch to an existing stack shown below
 
Switch   Ports Model             SW Version             SW Image
------   ----- -----             ----------             ----------
*   1   26     WS-C3750-24P       12.2(35)SE5             C3750-IPBASE-M
     2   26     WS-C3750-24P       12.2(35)SE5             C3750-IPBASE-M
     3   26     WS-C3750-24P       12.2(35)SE5             C3750-IPBASE-M

[code]....
 
I have looked on notes to add a switch to an existing stack and haven’t identified answers on how the IOS will be affected on the new switch – will it downgrade to the current stack version or will the current stack upgrade to its version. At this moment in time I would prefer if the new switch IOS downgraded to the current stack IOS version.The new switch is a 3750V2 – will this affect how it joins the stack?The new switch has the image of IPBASEK9-M – again will this affect how it joins the stack?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: How To Change Master Switch In 3750 Stack

Oct 18, 2012

We have 2 3750 24 port fiber switches in a stack and we would like to change the member to become the master. Both are running the same IOS and they are alive on the network. I read that you can change the who becomes the master by setting the priority number higher on the member, which we did. However this requires a reboot of the member to take effect. Is there a way to force this without having to reboot? One other note, both switches in stack have a single gig connection that goes to the core (6500). One gig link is blocked due to spanning-tree and this is on the member that we want to become the master.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Possibility Of Purchasing Few 3750 To Build Switch Stack

Jan 7, 2013

I'm looking at the possibility of purchasing a few 3750 to build a switch stack to replace my current core and access switches. I'd like for the stack to support server, SAN, and user traffic, as well as provide simple switch management, redundancy, and failover. I've also been looking at the 4500, 6500, and Nexus series switches (although the Nexus switches maybe a bit too much for my network).
 
My current environment consists of 3560's as the core/distribution/access switches, a mixture of Hyper-V and VMWare environments (although we're slowly migrating to Hyper-V), an HP SAN (P4500), and about 100 users. Any issues going with the 3750's or have an alternative, more efficient solution?
