About VSAN Creation

A VSAN is in the operational state if the VSAN is active and at least one port is up. This state indicates
that traffic can pass through this VSAN. This state cannot be configured.

Creating VSANs Statically

You cannot configure any application-specific parameters for a VSAN before creating the VSAN.
To create VSANs, perform this task:
Command
Step 1
switch# configuration terminal
Step 2
switch(config)# vsan database
switch(config-vsan-db)#
Step 3
switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan vsan-id
Step 4
switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan vsan-id name
name
updated vsan 2
Step 5
switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan vsan-id
suspend
Step 6
switch(config-vsan-db)# no vsan vsan-id
suspend
Step 7
switch(config-vsan-db)# end
switch#
