chassisConfig

Displays or sets the configuration of the chassis.
Synopsis
chassisconfig [ -f ] [ option ]
Availability
admin (set)
all users (display)
Description
Use this command to set the chassis configuration for products that support both single-switch and
dual-switch operation.Each configuration specifies whether the chassis runs as one logical switch or two.
Each configuration also specifies the port blade ID that is permitted on each logical switch. Any port blade
ID that does not match the current configuration is considered incompatible, and does not power up.
When no arguments are provided, this command displays the current configuration of the chassis as well
as a list of the supported configurations. When a specific option is provided to this command, all CPs
currently in the system are immediately rebooted, returning in the mode that the user specified. This can
result in some blades being faulted as incompatible, based on the new configuration option. This
command rejects without causing a reboot, if an option is not supported by the platform. See the
"Operands" section for supported options.
Of the following options, HP StorageWorks SAN Director 2/128 supports options 1 through 4 and HP
StorageWorks 4/256 SAN Directors support options 1 and 5:
1. One 128-port switch (blade ID 4, 17 on slots 1 through 4 and 7 through 10; blade ID 5, 16 on slots
5 and 6)
2. Two 64-port switches (blade ID 4 on slots 1 through 4 and 7 through 10; blade ID 5 on slots 5 and 6)
3. Two 64-port switches (blade ID 4 on slots 1 through 4, blade ID 2 on slots 7 through 10; blade ID 5
on slots 5 and 6)
4. Two 64-port switches (blade ID 2 on slots 1 through 4, blade ID 4 on slots 7 through 10; blade ID 5
on slots 5 and 6)
5. One 256-port switch (blade ID 17, 18 on slots 1 through 4 and 7 through 10; blade ID 16 on slots 5
and 6)

When the system changes from single to multiple domains and vice versa, configuration parameters that
are not compatible are restored to factory defaults. The configuration data includes, but not limited to
routing, port swap, fabric, zoning, port configuration, passwords, security, HP Fabric Watch, management
server, time server, SNMP, performance monitoring, and general HP Fabric OS configuration values. It is
recommended that the current configuration be saved using
after the configuration change.
Certain configuration values that are not considered switch based and determined not to cause adverse
effects are left untouched for user convenience. These include SSL certificates, PKI certificates, licenses, and
IP address.
When the -f (force) option is omitted, this command prompts for user consent to proceed further with the
configuration change. It also prompts the user to upload the configuration data to a host so it can be used
as a guide to re-establishing the configuration data in the new mode. Use the -f option to proceed
without the interactive step.
