Installing the SAN Switch 2/32

Optional Configuration Settings

The following sections describe how to modify domain IDs and status policies.

Modifying Domain IDs

Optional. Modify the domain IDs if desired, as follows.
NOTE: The default domain ID is 1. If the default domain ID is already in use when the switch is
connected to the fabric, the domain ID for the new switch is automatically reset to a unique
value. The domain IDs that are currently in use can be determined using the telnet command
fabricShow.
1. Disable the switch by entering the following:
switchDisable
2. Enter the following:
configure
3. Enter y after the Fabric parameters prompt.
Fabric parameters (y, n)
4. Enter a unique domain ID (such as the domain ID used by the previous switch, if
still available).
Domain: (1..239) [1] 3
5. Complete the remaining prompts (or press CTRL+D to accept the remaining
settings without completing all the prompts).
6. Re-enable the switch by entering the following:
switchEnable

Specifying Custom Status Policies

Optional If desired, specify any custom status policies for the fabric as follows.
1. Enter the following at the prompt.
switchStatusPolicySet
2. Specify the desired status policies. To completely deactivate the alarm for a
particular condition, enter 0 at the prompt for that condition.
IMPORTANT: Configure each port to match the topology of each host or target before
connecting to the device. The default port configuration is fabric, not private loop. The switch
does not auto-sense topology.
