Aruba VSF Stacking Question

Hello all, I've acquired nine Aruba 2930F switches for my job. I've got two running as standalone switches and I'm forming additional stacks of four and three switches, via SFP+ ports and DAC cables.
I'm setting up the stack of four at the moment and having some trouble. I reviewed Aruba's VSF documentation and followed a couple of different guides. I've got a stack formed, but it's showing up as a chain topology, rather than a ring.

Aruba-VSF-2930F# show vsf VSF Domain ID : 1 MAC Address : 08f1ea-xxxxxx VSF Topology : Chain VSF Status : Active Uptime : 0d 14h 54m VSF MAD : None VSF Port Speed : 10G Software Version : WC.16.05.0007 Mbr ID MAC Address Model Pri Status --- ----------------- ------------------------------------- --- --------------- 1 08f1ea-xxxxxx Aruba JL254A 2930F-48G-4SFP+ Switch 255 Commander 2 08f1ea-xxxxxx Aruba JL254A 2930F-48G-4SFP+ Switch 254 Standby 3 3821c7-xxxxxx Aruba JL254A 2930F-48G-4SFP+ Switch 128 Member 4 08f1ea-xxxxxx Aruba JL254A 2930F-48G-4SFP+ Switch 128 Member 

I'm not quite sure why this is, but when I show running config, I see a discrepancy that I think might be causing the issue?

Running configuration: ; hpStack_WC Configuration Editor; Created on release #WC.16.05.0007 ; Ver #12:08.1d.9b.3f.bf.bb.ef.7c.59.fc.6b.fb.9f.fc.ff.ff.37.ef:ba hostname "Aruba-VSF-2930F" vsf enable domain 1 member 1 type "JL254A" mac-address 08f1ea-xxxxxx priority 255 link 1 1/49,1/52 link 1 name "I-Link1_1" link 2 name "I-Link1_2" exit member 2 type "JL254A" mac-address 08f1ea-xxxxxx priority 254 link 1 2/49 link 1 name "I-Link2_1" link 2 2/50 link 2 name "I-Link2_2" exit member 3 type "JL254A" mac-address 3821c7-xxxxxx priority 128 link 1 3/50 link 1 name "I-Link3_1" link 2 3/51 link 2 name "I-Link3_2" exit member 4 type "JL254A" mac-address 08f1ea-xxxxxx priority 128 link 1 4/51 link 1 name "I-Link4_1" link 2 4/52 link 2 name "I-Link4_2" exit 

I think it might have something to do with "link 1 1/49,1/52" on the commander (member 1). The stacking ports are both showing up under the same link, whereas for the others, they are separate. Not sure how to deal with this to reconfigure it to the same as the others... I don't even know if this would fix the issue... Any advice would be appreciated. Ultimately, I just want them in a ring topology.
Thank you.

Edit: Resolved
