Defaults Dynamic Configuration
Command Mode Vfabric CONFIGURATION
Usage
Information
The configurations are supported only in the multiswitch mode. The configured domain ID can be
preferred or dynamic.
If the domain ID is preferred, the switch requests preferred domain ID to the principal switch.
You can change the domain ID only when the vfabric is in an inactive state. To activate vfabric, add
vlan and fcmap configuration under the vfabric configuration view. Ensure to configure the domain ID
before configuring the vlan and fcmap in the vfabric configuration view.
When disruptive fabric reconfiguration (RCF) occurs, the switch transmits RDI request sequence with
preferred domain ID. During nondisruptive reconfiguration (BF), the switch requests for previously
allocated domain ID (previous runtime domain ID), if available. Otherwise, use the preferred domain ID.
The no form of this command resets to the default, dynamic value.
Example
OS10(conf-vfabric-<vfabric-id>)#domain-id preferred 2

10.5.1.0 or later
e_d_tov
Configures the E_D_TOV FC timer value for every vfabric.
Syntax
e_d_tov timeout-val
Parameters timeout-valValid values are from 1000 to 10000.
Defaults 2000 ms
Command Mode Vfabric CONFIGURATION
Usage
Information
The configurations are supported only in the multiswitch mode.
If you do not receive an expected response within the expected time, then consider the condition
as an error condition. This timer is used for the error conditions during link initialization, and the
principal switch election. Match this value with the other end during port initialization. This type of
configuration is not permitted when vfabric is active.
If the configured E_D_TOV value is not same on both the sides of the port, then the port is isolated.
Ensure to configure the same E_D_TOV value on both the sides.
You can change the E_D_TOV value only when vfabric is in inactive state. The vfabric is activated
only by adding vlan and fcmap configuration under the vfabric configuration view. Ensure to configure
E_D_TOV before configuring the vlan and fcmap in the vfabric configuration view.
The no version of this command resets to the default value.
Example
OS10(conf-vfabric-<vfabric-id>)#e_d_tov 3000
