Chapter 8 Fibre Channel Commands vsan database Send comments to [email protected] Command Modes Configuration mode Command History Release 4.0(0)N1(1a) Modification This command was introduced. Usage Guidelines To use this command, change to the VSAN database mode. The interface range must be in ascending order and nonoverlapping. You can specify a range using a hyphen and several interfaces using commas: • The interface range format for a Fibre Channel interface range is fcslot/port - port , fcslot/port , fcslot/port: For example, show int fc2/1 - 3 , fc2/4 , fc3/2 • The format for a SAN port channel is san-port-channel portchannel-number.subinterface-number: For example, show int san-port-channel 5.1 There are four interop modes: • Interop mode 1 - Standards based interop mode that requires all other vendors in the fabric to be in interop mode. • Interop mode 2 - Brocade native mode (Core PID 0). • Interop mode 3 - Brocade native mode (Core PID 1). • Interop mode 4 - McData native mode. Before you configure Interop mode 4 (or remove the configuration), you must suspend the VSAN. You should unsuspend the VSAN only after you configure a VSAN-dependent switch WWN with the McData OUI [08:00:88]. Examples The following example shows how to create multiple fabrics sharing the same physical infrastructure and how to assign ports to VSANs: switch(config)# vsan database switch-config-vsan-db# vsan 2 switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 2 name TechDoc switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 2 loadbalancing src-dst-id switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 2 loadbalancing src-dst-ox-id switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 2 suspend switch(config-vsan-db)# no vsan 2 suspend switch(config-vsan-db)# end The following example shows how to suspend a VSAN and enable Interop mode 4: switch(config)# vsan database switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 100 suspend switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 100 interop 4 switch(config-vsan-db)# exit OL-16599-01 Cisco Nexus 5000 Series Command Reference 8-141
