Documentation updates for Fabric OS v6.4.0

NOTE

The updates in this section are for the Fabric OS Command Reference, publication number

53-1001764-01, published March 2010 and supporting Fabric OS v6.4.0. Updates refer to the help

pages for the commands indicated and the associated man pages on the switch.

ceePortLoopbackTest/portLoopbackTest

The man pages and corresponding pages in the Command Reference should be updated with the

following note:

This diagnostic cannot be run on an operational switch. You must disable the switch using the

chassisDisable command before you can run this test. After the test completes, re-enable the switch

using the chassisEnable command. Do not use the switchDisable command followed by manually

shutting down the ports before running the test. This will not work because executing switchEnable after

the test completes will leave the ports in the same state as before. The only way to bring the ports down

before running the test and back up after the test completes is by using the chassisDisable command

followed by the chassisEnable command.

passwd

The syntax for the following example has been corrected as follows:

To change the password for user "brocadeUser" from an admin account noninteractively:

switch:admin> passwd brocadeUser -old brcdPasswd -new mynewPasswd

Password changed.

Saving password to stable storage.

Password saved to stable storage successfully.
