secDefineSize
Displays the size of the defined security database.
SYNOPSIS secdefinesize
DESCRIPTION Use this command to display the size of the defined security database. The command also displays the
maximum database size.
For switches running Fabric OS v6.2.0 and later, the maximum security database size is 1 Megabyte per
logical switch. With up to eight partitions, the total database size on a chassis can be up to 8 Megabytes.
On switches that are not Virtual Fabric-capable, the security database is limited to 1 Megabyte. For
switches running earlier versions of Fabric OS (up to v5.3.0), the maximum size is 256 Kilobytes.
The effective security DB size is the lowest supported by the fabric. The presence of a Standby CP that
runs an earlier version of the operating system drops the effective security DB size on an Active CP that
runs Fabric OS v6.2.0 or later.
NOTES The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in
place. Refer to Chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS Commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for
details.
