Abstract
A switch fabric modification system includes a switch fabric having first switch devices and a primary switch device. The primary switch device detects a second switch device has been connected to the switch fabric and, in response and without subsequently receiving an instruction from a user, verifies a second switch device/switch fabric connectivity of the second switch device to the switch fabric that provides a switch device role for the second switch device by determining that the second switch device/switch fabric connectivity enables data communications that are available to the first switch device(s) that have the switch device role, verifies an operating configuration of the second switch device by determining that it matches an operating configuration of the primary switch device and, response to verifying the second switch device/switch fabric connectivity and the operating configuration of the second switch device, adds the second switch device to the switch fabric.
