cfgSize

Displays zone database size details.

Synopsis cfgsize [integer]

Description Use this command to display the size details of the zone database.

The size details include maximum size, the committed size, and the transaction size of the Zone database in bytes.

Zone DB maximum size

Defines the upper limit for the Zone defined configuration, determined by the amount of

nonvolatile memory available for storing the defined configuration. The Zone DB maximum

size is further reduced due to a message header that is propagated with the zone

configuration to all switches in the fabric.

The maximum supported zone database size is 2 MB for chassis based switches and 1 MB

for other switches.

Available Zone DB size

Displays the size of the database that is actually available for storage.

Committed size

Displays the size of the defined configuration currently stored in nonvolatile memory.

Transaction size

Displays the size of the uncommitted defined configuration. This value will be nonzero if the

defined configuration is being modified by Telnet, API, and so forth; otherwise it is 0.

Refer to the cfgShow help page for a description of defined and effective zone configurations.

Notes The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric restrictions that may be in place. Refer to "Using Fabric

OS Commands" and "Command Availability" for details.

In Virtual Fabric environments, the zone database size of all partitions taken together cannot exceed 2 MB for

chassis based switches and 1 MB for other switches. Exceeding the zone database size limit can result in

unexpected behavior. Note that in Virtual Fabric mode, the zone database limit is enforced per partition, but not

chassis-wide.

Operands The following operand is optional:

integer

If a nonzero integer is specified, the size of the nonvolatile memory allocated for the zone

database is displayed. The zone database includes both the defined and effective

configurations. The database size is displayed in bytes.
