fabricShow

fabricShow
Displays fabric membership information.
Synopsis fabricshow
Description Use this command to display information about switches in the fabric.
If the switch is initializing or is disabled, the message "no fabric" is displayed. In a mixed fabric,
fabricshow must be executed on a switch that runs Fab OS v5.3.0 or later; otherwise, IPV6
information is lost, since switches running older versions do not recognize an IPV6 configured
switch.
Running this command on an FCR or edge switch will not provide any router information; running
this command on an edge switch with the -m option will provide router information.
If the fabric is reconfiguring, some or all switches may not be displayed; otherwise, the following
fields are displayed:
Switch ID
World Wide Name
Enet IP Addr
FC IP Addr
Name
FC Router IP Addr
FC Router Name
The execution of this command is subject to Admin Domain restrictions that may be in place.
