Setting a fabric name
The fabric name configured takes effect only on a statically-built fabric. You must configure the same
fabric name for all switches in a VSAN.
To set a fabric name:

By default, the fabric name is null.
If the user does not configure a fabric name, the
switch WWN is used as the fabric name.
Setting the switch priority
The priority value for FCF switches is in the range of 1 to 254. The smaller the value, the higher the
priority. The FCF switch with the highest priority will be elected as the principal switch.
The priority is configured on a per-VSAN basis, and one FCF switch can have different priorities in
different VSANs.
In a stable fabric, the configured priority does not take effect immediately. Therefore, the running priority
of a switch might be different from the configured priority. To validate the configured priority, use the
domain restart disruptive command to perform a disruptive reconfiguration. After a disruptive
reconfiguration, the running priority still might be different from the configured priority, depending on the
configured priority value, as shown in Table 3.
