Cisco 9500 Stackwise virtual

Hello all,

In short I need to set up stackwise virtual on a pair of 9500 switches which I've racked, but not turned on, configured, or stacked yet.

I've checked release notes and software versions, and all is well regarding that side of things, and the switches are compatible.

Now I've never done this before, and I've wrote a script for this based on the cisco configuration template and the SVL is an active QSFP+ cable, and I was wonderring if anyone can give me a sanity check before I go and do this?

My mental logic after reading the notes are;

Stack the switches with the factory default configuraiton. Then assign the managememnt ip and port information, as you would with a normal set of switches which had stacking cables and stacking modules.

Here is the script which I will run on both switches;

######## Stackwise Virtual Configuration to be run on both switches ######## en switch 1 renumber 2 switch 1 priority 5 conf t stackwise-virtual domain 2 ************** Change This if multiple stackwise virtual domains in deployment end show stackwise-virtual ************** verify stackwise-virtual configuration write memory reload ############ Configuration of Stackwise Virtual Link ############ en conf t interface FortyGigabitEthernetX/X/X ************** Change This to the 40GB interface stackwise-virtual link 1 end write memory reload
