iodReset

Disables in-order delivery (IOD) on a switch.

Synopsis iodreset

Description Use this command to disable in-order delivery enforcement on the local switch. IOD is disabled by

default, and can only be disabled after it has been enabled with the iodSet command. This

command disables the legacy IOD enforcement only.

Disabling IOD allows faster re-routing after a fabric topology change, but it may cause out-of-order

delivery of frames during fabric topology changes.

Note 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.

Operands none

Examples To disable IOD enforcement:

switch:admin> iodreset

switch:admin> iodshow

IOD is not set
