Enabling In-Order Delivery Globally

To ensure that the in-order delivery parameters are uniform across all VSANs on an MDS switch, enable
in-order delivery globally.
Only enable in-order delivery globally if this is a requirement across your entire fabric. Otherwise,
enable IOD only for the VSANs that require this feature.
Note Enable in-order delivery on the entire switch before performing a downgrade to Cisco MDS SAN-OS
Release1.3(3) or earlier.
To enable in-order delivery for the switch, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch# config t
switch(config)#
Step 2
switch(config)# in-order-guarantee
switch(config)# no in-order-guarantee

Enabling In-Order Delivery for a VSAN

When you create a VSAN, that VSAN automatically inherits the global in-order-guarantee value. You
can override this global value by enabling or disabling in-order-guarantee for the new VSAN.
To use the lowest domain switch for the multicast tree computation, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch# config t
switch(config)#
Step 2
switch(config)# in-order-guarantee vsan 3452
switch(config)# no in-order-guarantee vsan 101

Displaying the In-Order Delivery Status

Use the show in-order-guarantee command to display the present configuration status:
switch# show in-order-guarantee
global inorder delivery configuration:guaranteed
VSAN specific settings
vsan 1 inorder delivery:guaranteed
vsan 101 inorder delivery:not guaranteed
vsan 1000 inorder delivery:guaranteed
vsan 1001 inorder delivery:guaranteed
vsan 1682 inorder delivery:guaranteed
vsan 2001 inorder delivery:guaranteed
vsan 2009 inorder delivery:guaranteed
