Hey Matt,

we have couple of EX2200 VC running in our infra. JUNOS version 12.3R3.4.

Few things to keep in mind:
1. JUNOS should be same on both switch

2. Make your VC as 'preprovisioned', so that 'you' can decide what part the new 
member will play in VC.

3. configure the ethernet ports to act as VC-ports, as 2200 do not have any 
fixed VCP. It can be the built-in ports or ports from uplink module.

Understanding EX2200 VC:

Hope this helps.

On Ex2200 a standalone switch is already part of a virtual chassis.
You have to configure two VC ports, and to preprovision the other member
as backup (or linecard), it will boot and join the actual vc, without
interruption.

Be sure to have a backup of the configuration in case of disaster :)
