In some cases, a configuration might not be carried forward in a code update. For updates where this issue is to be expected, the following procedure should be followed:
- Save the current configuration by uploading it from the stack, using the copy command from the CLI.
- Load new code into the stack manager. Reboot the stack.
- Upon reboot, go into the boot menu and erase the configuration (restore to factory defaults)
- Continue with the boot of operational code.
- Once the stack is up, download the saved configuration back to the master. This configuration should then be automatically propagated to all members of the stack.
