switchCfgPersistentDisable
Disables a switch persistently.
Synopsis switchcfgpersistentdisable
Description Use this command to persistently disable the switch. All Fibre Channel ports are taken offline. If the
switch was part of a fabric, the remaining switches reconfigure. The switch remains disabled even
after a reboot.
The disable process can be observed and verified by watching the front panel LEDs change to slow
flashing yellow as each port is disabled.
A persistently disabled switch can be temporarily enabled using the switchEnable command. A
temporarily enabled switch remains disabled after a reboot.
Notes Performance Monitoring cannot be added to any port on a persistently disabled switch.
The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may
be in place. Refer to chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS commands" and Appendix A, "Command
Availability" for details.
