Port Grouping policy 3 Deleting an N_Port from a port group Before deleting an N_Port, all F_Ports mapped to that N_Port must be remapped before that N_Port is deleted from a port group. If an N-port is deleted from a port group enabled for Login Balancing, the F-ports mapped to that N-port stay with the port group as long as there are other N-ports in the group. Only the N-port is removed from the port group. This is because the F_Ports are logically associated with the port groups that are enabled for Login Balancing. This is not the case for port groups not enabled for Login Balancing. When you delete an N-port from one of these port groups, the F-ports that are mapped to the N-port move to PG0 along with the N-port. This is because the F-ports are logically associated with the N-ports in port groups not enabled for Login Balancing. 1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role. 2. Enter the ag --pgdel command with the appropriate operands to delete an N_Port from a specific port group. In the following example, N_Port 13 is removed from port group 3. switch:admin> ag --pgdel 3 13 N_Port[s] are deleted from port group 3 3. Enter the command ag --pgshow to verify the N_Port was deleted from the specified port group. switch:admin> ag --pgshow PG_ID PG_Name PG_Mode N_Ports F_Ports 0 pg0 lb,mfnm 1;3 10;11 2 SecondFabric - 0;2 4;5;6 Removing a port group 1.

Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role. 2. Enter the ag --pgrename command with appropriate operands to rename port group. In the following example, port group pgid 2 is renamed to MyEvenFabric. switch:admin> ag --pgrename 2 MyEvenFabric Port Group 2 has been renamed as MyEvenFabric successfully Disabling the Port Grouping policy 1.
