Changing the fabric ID of a logical switch

The following procedure describes how you can change the fabric ID of an existing logical switch.
The fabric ID indicates in which fabric the logical switch participates. By changing the fabric ID, you
are moving the logical switch from one fabric to another.
Changing the fabric ID requires permission for chassis management operations. You cannot
change the FID of your own logical switch context.
NOTE
If you are in the context of the logical switch with the fabric ID you want to change, you are
automatically logged out when the fabric ID changes. To avoid being logged out, make sure you are
in the context of a different logical switch from the one with the fabric ID you are changing.
Use the following procedure to change the fabric ID of a logical switch:
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account with admin permissions.
2. Enter the lsCfg command to change the fabric ID of a logical switch:
3. Enter y at the prompt.
4. Enable the logical switch.
