Disables the switch.
Synopsis
switchdisable
Availability
admin
Description
Use this command to disable the switch. All Fibre Channel ports are taken offline; if the switch was part of
a fabric, the remaining switches reconfigure.
The switch must be disabled before making configuration changes (using configure or
configDefault) or before running many of the diagnostic tests. All commands that require the switch to
be disabled send an error if invoked while the switch is enabled.
The switch does not need to be disabled before rebooting or powering off.
As each port is disabled, the front panel LED changes to a slow flashing yellow.
Operands
none
