Hi, Its been quite some time since I've used EX switches. From memory though, even if you don't explicitly have any VC configuration the switch will believe itself to be part of a VC with only one member - itself.
Run some show virtual-chassis commands to confirm that this is the case. If it does believe it is, then you can likely add in the appropriate VC configuration that designates it as master, and insert your new switch into the chassis without interruption. This part is completely unhelpful for you but we configured all switches going into production as a VC even if they didn't have any other members for situations like this.
