Enabling NPIV using the CLI
1. To verify that NPIV is enabled, enter following command:
CiscoSANswitch# show running-config
If the npiv enable entry does not appear in the list, NPIV is not enabled on the switch.
2. To enable NPIV, use the following commands from global config mode:
CiscoSANswitch# config terminal
CiscoSANswitch# NPIV enable
CiscoSANswitch# exit
CiscoSANswitch# copy running-config startup-config
NPIV is enabled globally on the switch on all ports and all VSANs.
3. To disable NPIV, enter the no npiv enable command.
