Applying a DCB Map in a Switch Stack 
Apply the same DCB map with PFC and ETS configuration to all stacked ports in a switch stack. You 
cannot apply different DCB maps to different stacked switches. This functionality is supported on the 
platform.
To remove all PFC and ETS settings applied to stacked ports from the DCB map and reset PFC and ETS to 
their default settings, use the no dcb-map stack-unit all command.
Task Command Command Mode
Apply the specified DCB map on all 
ports of the switch stack.

CONFIGURATION
dcb pfc-shared-buffer-size
Configure the maximum amount of shared buffer size for PFC packets in kilobytes. This utility is 
supported on the 
S4820T platform.
You must configure the shared buffer size to be less than the total PFC buffer size. If the buffer size and 
DCB buffer threshold settings are applied on one or more ports, a validaiton is performed to determine 
whether following condition is satisfied: Shared-pfc-buffer-size <= (Total-pfc-buffer-size - Σpfc priority 
<> buffer-size on each port, priority).
If the preceding condition is not satisfied by the shared PFC buffer size value, the configuration is not 
saved and a system logging message is generated stating that the shared buffer size that you attempt to 
specify cannot be configured because of the existing total buffer space on the system being lower than 
the shared buffer size. You must either enter a smaller value for the shared buffer size or increase the 
total buffer size appropriately by using the dcb pfc-total- buffer-size command.
