FIGURE 8 pg0 default setup
You can create new port groups and add N_Ports to those groups. However, all N_Ports that are not
part of any user-created port group are part of the default port group pg0.
Because port groups cannot be overlapped, if you specify an N_Port as a Preferred Secondary
N_Port and it already belongs to another port group, the Port Group creation fails.
NOTE
If the PG policy is disabled while a switch in AG mode is online, all the user-defined port groups are
deleted, but the F_Port-to-N_Port mapping remain unchanged.
Creating a port group
1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
2. Enter the command ag --pgcreate with the <PG_ID> “<N_Port1;N_Port2;…> [-n <PG_Name>]
operands. For example, to create a port group “FirstFabric” that includes N_Ports 1 and 3:
switch:admin> ag --pgcreate 3 "1;3" -n FirstFabric1
Port Group 3 created successfully
3. Enter the command ag --pgshow to verify the port group was created.
switch:admin> ag --pgshow
