Use the fcdomain domain <domain-id> [static | preferred] vsan <vsan-id> command to change the

domain ID for one of the overlapping domain IDs.
The static option tells the switch to request that particular domain ID. If it does not obtain that
particular address, it will isolate itself from the fabric.
The preferred option has the switch request a specified domain ID. If that ID is unavailable, it will
accept another ID.
Use the fcdomain restart vsan command to restart Domain Manager.
Step 4
While the static option can be applied to runtime after a disruptive or nondisruptive restart, the preferred
option is applied to runtime only after a disruptive restart.
A domain ID restart is disruptive. The Fibre Channel nodes that are logged into that domain will be
Note
logged out and logged back in. A disruptive reconfiguration might affect data traffic.
To assign a dynamic domain ID after a fabric reconfiguration
You can use fabric reconfiguration to reassign domain IDs and resolve any overlapping domain IDs. If
you enable the auto-reconfigure option on both switches before connecting the fabric, a disruptive
reconfiguration (RCF) occurs. The RCF functionality automatically forces a new principal switch
selection and causes new domain IDs to be assigned to the different switches.
To use fabric reconfiguration to reassign domain IDs for a particular VSAN using the NX-OS CLI,
perform the following these steps:
Use the show fcdomain domain-list command to determine if you have statically assigned domain IDs
Step 1
on the switches.
Step 2
If you have statically assigned domain IDs, use the no fcdomain domain command to remove the static
assignments.
Step 3
Use the show fcdomain vsan <vsan-id> command to determine if you have the RCF reject option
enabled.
Example:
switch# show fcdomain vsan 3
The local switch is the Principal Switch.
