first, download the config just in case
as long as the stack remains powered up, the stack will operate as one
unit and when the new base is installed the other units provide the
config. The base is required when first powered up to provide the config
so as long as does not reboot until the new unit is in place and in the
stack should be OK. also look at the hardware conifguration from the
menu when the unit is up just to make sure the stack sees as the
base/unit 1 or may need to renumber that unit in the stack.
