DESCRIPTION
Use this command to control the automatic rebalancing of F_Ports for login distribution in the event that
an F_Port goes offline or an N_Port comes online.
If automatic rebalancing is enabled, and an F_Port goes offline, the remaining F_Port logins are
redistributed across the existing N_Ports. Similarly if a new N_Port comes online, some of the F_Port
logins being routed through existing N_Ports would be failed over to the new N_Ports. Both operations
are potentially disruptive. Disabling automatic rebalancing of login distribution provides a way of avoiding
disruptions associated with routine F_Port/N_Port offline/online events.
The default values for agautomapbalance are as follows:
•
•

command output varies depending on current AG policy settings:
