HP StorageWorks 1606 Brocade Fabric OS Command Reference v6.3.0 (53-1001337-01 - Page 137

configDownload 2 - Download the entire configuration including the data for all logical switches and for the chassis (-all). The interactive version of the command (no operands) prompts for input on only the parameters the user is allowed to execute. • In a non-Virtual Fabric environment, this command by default downloads the switch configuration. Additional options support downloading the chassis configuration (-chassis) or all of the system's configuration data, including chassis and switch configurations (-all). Chassis permissions are required. The -fid, and -sfid options are not valid. Configuration management supports download of v6.1 or v6.2+ configuration files to a switch running v6.2 firmware, but a v6.2 configuration file is not accepted by a switch running pre-v6.2 firmware. A v6.1 configuration downloaded to a 6.2 system is applied only to the default switch or chassis. For more information on compatibility refer to the Fabric OS Administrator's Guide. The switch must be disabled for configuration download of all parameters with the exception of SNMP and Fabric Watch. The following rules apply to configuration download in Virtual Fabric mode: • When downloading the chassis configuration, the number of logical switches defined in the configuration download must match the number of logical switches currently defined on the switch. • When downloading the switch configuration, the target FID must be defined in both the configuration download and the current system. • When downloading the switch configuration from a specified source FID to a target FID, the target FID must be defined on the switch and the source FID and associated configuration must be defined in the configuration download. In addition, downloading an SFID configuration resets the target FID ports without warning. Caution is advised when using this option. • When downloading all configuration parameters, the number of switches defined in the downloaded configuration file must match the number of switches currently defined on the switch. In addition, the following restrictions apply: - The switches must be disabled unless you only wish to download SNMP or Fabric Watch parameters. - Downloading a configuration file from a system that is not Virtual Fabric-capable to a system in Virtual Fabric mode is not recommended. The configuration is applied to the default switch only, and only to the ports that are part of the default switch. If an FCS policy is enabled, the following rules and restrictions apply: • Both [Defined Security Policies] and [Active Security Policies] sections must exist and contain the FCS_POLICY. • In the [Defined Security Policies] section, at least one member of the FCS_POLICY must be the same as a member in the previous FCS_POLICY. • In the [Active Security Policies] section, the FCS_POLICY must be exactly the same as the previous FCS_POLICY. Order of members must be maintained. • If either security policies section has an RSNMP_POLICY, then that section must have a WSNMP_POLICY. • After the switch is enabled, if the switch is the primary FCS, then its security and zoning information is propagated to all other switches in the fabric. • After the switch is enabled, if the switch is a non-FCS or a backup FCS, then its security and zoning information will be overwritten by the primary FCS.
