If a switch fails (which rarely happens), you can replace it easily, of course after you call Cisco and let them do the troubleshooting. When they send you the replacement you have to power it up and check the following before connecting it to the stack:
1- It is running the same "License Level" using "show version" command
2- Enable auto-upgrade on the stack, so when you connect the new switch it upgrades to the same IOS on the
3- Make sure to keep the priority as "1" on the new switch, or not higher than the Active switch, or it will overwrite with its configurations which are "nothing"

Thank you for watching!
