Step 5 Assign a new FC ID with a different area allocation. In this example, we replace 77 with ee.
switch# configuration terminal
switch(config)# fcdomain fcid database
switch(config-fcid-db)# vsan 3 wwn 50:05:08:b2:00:71:c8:c2 fcid 0x6fee00 area
Step 6 Enable the HBA interface in the Cisco Nexus 5000 Series switch.
switch# configuration terminal
switch(config)# interface vfc20/1
switch(config-if)# no shutdown
switch(config-if)# end
switch#
Step 7 Verify the pWWN ID of the HBA by using the show flogi database command.
switch# show flogi database
