msTdDisable

Disables the Management Server (MS) topology discovery service.

Synopsis mstddisable ["ALL"]

Description Use this command to disable the management server topology discovery service on a local switch or an entire

fabric. This change takes effect immediately and commits to the configuration database for all affected switches.

The change is persistent across power cycles and reboots.

Notes Topology Discovery Management requires the attached devices (including attached switches) to support request

node identification data (RNID) extended link service (ELS).

When an FCS policy is enabled, and this command is issued with the "ALL" operand, it can be issued only from the

primary FCS.

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.

Operands The following operand is optional:

"ALL"

Disables the MS topology discovery service throughout the entire fabric. This operand must

be enclosed in double quotation marks.

Examples To disable the MS topology discovery service on the local switch only:
