Table 37 Fabric-Wide Consistency Policy Settings - Brocade Communications Systems 53-1001763-02 Administrator's Manual

NOTE
To completely remove all policies from a fabric enter the fddCfg
When you set the fabric-wide consistency policy using the fddCfg command with the
fabwideset <database_id> option, both the fabric-wide consistency policy and specified
--
database are distributed to the fabric.The active policies of the specified databases overwrite the
corresponding active and defined policies on the target switches.
Policy changes that are saved but not activated are stored locally until a policy database change is
activated. Activating a policy automatically distributes the Active policy set for that policy type (SCC,
DCC, or both) to the other switches in the fabric.
NOTE
FC routers cannot join a fabric with a strict fabric-wide consistency policy. FC routers do not support
the fabric-wide consistency policies.
