Fcrlsanmatrix - Brocade Communications Systems Brocade 8/12c Command Reference Manual

fcrLsanMatrix

Creates, edits and displays LSAN fabric or FCR matrix information, which binds the LSAN Zone and
device database information to specified edge fabric IDs or FCRs.

DESCRIPTION
Use this command to specify pairs of edge fabrics IDs (FIDs) that can access each other. Every pair
implies two-way communications. The pairs of edge fabrics have access only to the edge fabrics
associated with them by this command. The edge fabrics that are not specified have access to the
remaining unspecified edge fabrics. Using this information, the FCR switch maintains the remote LSAN
Zone and the device state database only if it is associated to its local edge fabrics.
For example, if edge fabric FIDs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 are online, the default is that all edge fabrics have two-way
communication. In the case where 1 and 2 are specified with the --add option to have access to each
other, then:
•
•
•
The FIDs entered are not required to be online when you set up the LSAN fabric matrix. The LSAN fabric
matrix information is automatically distributed to all switches in the fabric.
This command is also used to specify FC Router pairs that can talk to each other. All edge fabrics
connected to a defined pair of FCRs are allowed to import devices each other. Once a fabric is removed
from an FCR, the communication with other fabrics of the two FCRs is also removed. The world wide
name (WWN) is used to specify an FCR member. If the FCR is online, the domain ID of the switch can be
used in place of the WWN.
Using the command options, you can do the following:
•

1 can access only 2.
2 can access only 1.
3, 4, 5 can access each other, but cannot access 1 or 2.
Update the cached information (nonpersistent location) by editing pairs of FIDs.
Update the cached information by removing pairs of FIDs.
Apply the changes to the persistent memory and distribute the changes to all FCRs in the backbone
fabric.
Display the information saved in the cache.
Clear the information from the cache and revert to the saved value.
Display the information that is saved in the persistent memory (CLI command with no option).
