To create multiple fabrics sharing the same physical infrastructure, assign ports to VSANs, turn on or
off interop mode, load balance either per originator exchange or by source-destination ID, and enter
VSAN database mode, use the vsan database command. To remove a configuration, use the no
command in VSAN database mode.
