Fabric Lock Override

If you have performed a fctimer fabric task and have forgotten to release the lock by either committing or
discarding the changes, an administrator can release the lock from any switch in the fabric. If the administrator
performs this task, your changes to the pending database are discarded and the fabric lock is released.
The changes are only available in the volatile directory and are subject to being discarded if the switch is
restarted.
To use administrative privileges and release a locked fctimer session, use the clear fctimer session command.
switch# clear fctimer session

◦ The fctimer configuration is only applied to those switches containing the VSAN with a modified
fctimer value.
