3 Port Grouping policy automapbalance on N_Port Online Event: Disabled automapbalance on F_Port Offline Event: Enabled Considerations when modifying automatic login balancing Consider the following when disabling automatic login balancing: • Be aware that modifying the APC policy default setting using the agautomapbalance command may yield to uneven distribution of F_Ports to N_Ports. In such cases you may want to consider a manual login distribution that forces a rebalancing of F_Ports to N_Ports. • To control automatic rebalancing to avoid disruptions when the Port Grouping policy is enabled, refer to "Rebalancing F_Ports" on page 37.
