# Switch stack information management

Use the information in the following sections to display and edit switch stack information.

## Viewing stack information

Use this procedure to display information about the operating status of stack switches.

### Procedure

1. From the navigation tree, double-click Edit.
2. In the Edit tree, double-click Chassis.
3. In the Chassis tree, click Switch/Stack.
4. In the work area, click the Stack Info tab.

### Stack Info field descriptions

The following table outlines the parameters for the Stack Info tab.

Name | Description
--- | ---
Indx | Indicates the line number for stack info. This is a read-only cell.
Descr | Describes the component or subcomponent. If not available, the value is a zero length string. This is a read-only cell.
Location | Indicates the geographic location of a component in a system modeled as a chassis, but possibly physically implemented with geographically separate devices connected to exchange management information. Chassis modeled in this manner are sometimes referred to as virtual chassis. An example value is: 4th flr wiring closet in blg A.
| Important
| This field applies only to components that are in either the Board or Unit groups. If the information is unavailable, for example, the chassis is not modeling a virtual chassis or component is not in a Board or Unit group, the value is a zero-length string. If this field is applicable and is not assigned a value through a SNMP SET PDU when the row is created, the value defaults to the value of the object s5ChasComSerNum.
LstChng | Indicates the value of sysUpTime when it was detected that the component or sub-component was added to the chassis. If this action has not occurred since the cold or warm start of the agent, the value is zero.
AdminState | Specifies the state of the component or subcomponent. enable: enables operation reset: resets component
OperState | Indicates the current operational state of the component. The possible values are other: another state notAvail: state not available removed: component removed disabled: operation disabled normal: normal operation resetInProg: reset in progress testing: performing a self test warning: operating at warning level nonFatalErr: operating at error level fatalErr: error stopped operation
Ver | Indicates the version number of the component or subcomponent. If not available, the value is a zero-length string.
SerNum | Indicates the serial number of the component or subcomponent. If not available, the value is a zero-length string.
BaseNumPorts | Indicates the number of base ports of the component or subcomponent.
TotalNumPorts | Indicates the number of ports of the component or subcomponent.
IpAddress | Indicates the IP address of the component or subcomponent.
RunningSoftwareVer | Indicates the software version running on the switch.

## Editing stack information

Use this procedure to change the information about the switch units in the stack.

### Procedure

1. From the navigation tree, double-click Edit.
2. In the Edit tree, double-click Chassis.
3. In the Chassis tree, click Switch/Stack.
4. In the work area, click the Stack info tab.
5. To select a switch unit for which to edit information, click a switch row.
6. In the row, double-click the cell in the Location column.
7. Type a location.
8. In the row, double-click the cell in the AdminState column.
9. Select a value from the list.
10. On the toolbar, click Apply.
