About CFS Distribution of Allowed Domain ID Lists
You can enable the distribution of the allowed domain ID list configuration information to all Cisco SAN
switches in the fabric using the Cisco Fabric Services (CFS) infrastructure. This feature allows you to
synchronize the configuration across the fabric from the console of a single switch. Because the same
configuration is distributed to the entire VSAN, you can avoid possible misconfiguration and the possibility
that two switches in the same VSAN have configured incompatible allowed domains.
Use CFS to distribute the allowed domain ID list to ensure consistency in the allowed domain ID lists on all
switches in the VSAN.
We recommend configuring the allowed domain ID list and committing it on the principal switch.

Locking the Fabric

The first action that modifies the existing configuration creates the pending configuration and locks the feature
in the fabric. After you lock the fabric, the following conditions apply:
• No other user can make any configuration changes to this feature.
• A pending configuration is created by copying the active configuration. Subsequent modifications are
