Brocade_SAN.ElementName is a descriptive name to identify the SAN.
The default value for ElementName is the Brocade_SAN.Name property value.
Supports the set operation that is used to set the user-friendly name to SAN. The name can be
up to 15 characters.
on page 17.
The ElementName is changed whenever the SAN WWN is changed.
The SAN user-friendly name is deleted when the fabric is deleted. For example, assume a
fabric with switch1 as principal switch and you configure a SAN Element Name.
-
If the firmware is upgraded in the switch1 and it goes down momentarily, then switch2
becomes the principal switch in that fabric and the Element Name is changed to default.
-
When the switch1 comes active and becomes the principal switch, then the configured
SAN ElementName is reset to the configured name.
The SAN element name is reset to the default value when the principal switch WWN is changed
during fabric merge or segmentation.
-
For example, assume there are two switch fabrics where switch1 is the seed switch and
switch2 is the principal switch, and SAN Element name is configured. If a switch3 joins the
fabric as a principal switch, then the element name changes to switch3 WWN and the
configured name is lost.
