3. Click Change Seed Switch.
If the fabric contains other switches that are running the latest version and are also
HTTP-reachable from the Management application, the Change Seed Switch dialog box
appears. Otherwise, a message displays that you cannot change the seed switch.
4. Select a switch to be the new seed switch from the Change Seed Switch dialog box.
You can select only one switch. Only switches that are running the latest Fabric OS version in
the fabric are displayed. The current seed switch is not displayed in this list.
5. Click OK.
If you are not already logged in to the seed switch, the Fabric Login dialog box displays.
If you are successfully authenticated, the fabric is deleted from the Management application
without purging historical data, and the same fabric is rediscovered with the new seed switch.
