You cannot upload an ICX 6450 image from a mixed stack to a TFTP server or SCP client.
Recovering a pre-stacking configuration on peripheral devices
Defines a recovery strategy for peripheral devices in a mixed stack.
You must execute the command used for the recovery mechanism on the active controller.
Before joining a mixed stack as peripheral devices in a substack, ICX 6450 devices in a mixed stack
can be part of independent traditional stacks or can be standalone devices. A recovery mechanism
allows you to recover the configuration on the ICX 6450 devices from before they were members of
the mixed stack. If a peripheral device was a clean unit before joining the mixed stack, it becomes a
clean unit after the recovery mechanism is performed.
The recovery mechanism removes all the peripheral ports and peripheral trunks from the ICX 6610
devices. It also detaches the peripheral ICX 6450 devices from the mixed stack and reloads them after
recovering their previous configurations.
Perform the following steps to execute the recovery mechanism:
1. Launch the recovery mechanism on the active controller.
Brocade# stack unconfigure mixed-stack
2. When prompted, confirm the removal of all peripheral ports and peripheral trunks, and recovery of
the previous configuration of the peripheral devices.
All the peri-ports/trunks will be removed and all the ICX6450 units will recover
pre-mixed-stacking configuration. Are you sure? (enter 'y' or 'n'):y
All peripheral ports and peripheral trunks are removed from the ICX 6610 devices. The peripheral
ICX 6450 devices recover their configuration from before they were members of the mixed stack,
and they are reloaded.
