Command History

Usage Guidelines Clear the switch development or system log file if it is large, or if you are going to perform testing and

want to be sure the switch log files only reflects information from the testing session.

Clear local zoning configuration if you are moving the storage router from one FC switched zoned fabric

to another or removing a switch from the fabric, or when other network changes have been made that

render the saved zoning information inaccurate. All ports operating as E_Ports must be inactive. If the

clear fcswitch zones local command is issued when there is an active E_Port on the SN 5428-2 Storage

Router, the command fails and issues a warning message indicating the FC interfaces that are currently

enabled.

Use the fabric keyword to clear the local zoning database and deactivate the active zoneset for the entire

fabric.
