Chapter 8 Fibre Channel Commands
fcdomain
Usage Guidelines You can use this command to select the principal switch, configure domain ID distribution, reconfigure
the fabric, and allocate FC IDs.
We recommend using the optimize fast-restart option on most fabrics, especially those with a large
number of logical ports (3200 or more), where a logical port is an instance of a physical port in a VSAN.
Examples The following example shows how to configure a preferred domain ID for VSAN 87:
switch(config)# fcdomain domain 3 preferred vsan 87
The following example shows how to specify disruptive fabric reconfiguration for VSAN 1:
switch(config)# fcdomain restart disruptive vsan 1
The following example shows how to enable domain manager fast restart for VSANs 7 through 10:
switch(config)# fcdomain optimize fast-restart vsan 7 - 10
The following example shows how configure the fabric world wide name (fWWN) for VSAN3:
switch(config)# fcdomain fabric-name 20:1:ac:16:5e:0:21:01 vsan 3
