Disable the switch.
Synopsis
switchDisable
Availability

Description
Use this command to disable the switch. All Fibre Channel ports are taken offline; if the switch was
part of a fabric, the remaining switches reconfigure.
The switch must be disabled before making configuration changes (using configure or
configDefault) or before running many of the diagnostic tests. All commands that require the
switch to be disabled send an error if invoked while the switch is enabled.
The switch does not need to be disabled before rebooting or powering off.
As each port is disabled, the front panel LED changes to a slow flashing yellow.
Operands
None.
