Remove a Provisioned Switch from a Cisco Switch Stack

To remove a switch from stack, the member number of the switch must be changed back to 1 and the provision info must be removed.

Otherwise, you might see error “..Switch can not be un-provisioned when it is physically present..”

switch# show switch                (determine the member number of the switch)

switch(config)#switch 2 renumber 1 (assume the switch is member 2)

Write mem

Reload

switch(config)#no switch 2 provision

Write mem

Reload

    switch(config)#switch 2 renumber 1
    This command does not work with 3650 switch. It must be run from privileged mode and NOT global config.

      Thanks for the comment. This command works with 3750 switch, cisco ios version 15. I was wondering what ios version you were using.
