Hello DASTAN in order to move the configuration over to the new stack just use the TFTP command to copy the .cfg file you want to a server. Then tftp that file to the new stack. Use the command use config to tell the switch to use that file. Then reboot.

Using TFTp saves the config as a xml file.

Let me know if that helps

1. You have to upgrade all the switches in stack to the same software version Download image exosversion VR vr-def 2. Make sure all are in same partition 3. Run easy setup 4. Upload the backup config
