Changing the Position of a Switch Within the

FCS Policy

Use the secPolicyFCSMove command to change the order in which switches are listed in the FCS

policy. The list order determines which backup FCS switch becomes the primary FCS switch if the

current primary FCS switch fails.

To modify the order of FCS switches:

1. From a sectelnet or SSH session, log in to the primary FCS switch as admin.

2. Type secPolicyShow “Defined”, “FCS_POLICY”.

This displays the WWNs of the current primary FCS switch and backup FCS switches.

3. Type secPolicyFCSMove; then provide the current position of the switch in the list and the desired

position at the prompts.

Alternatively, enter secPolicyFCSMove “From, To”. From is the current position in the list of the

FCS switch and To is the desired position in the list for this switch.

For example, to move a backup FCS switch from position 2 to position 3 in the FCS list, using

interactive mode:

4. Type secPolicyActivate.

primaryfcs:admin> secpolicyfcsmove
