2 shellFlowControlEnable shellFlowControlEnable Enables XON/XOFF flow control on the console serial port. Synopsis shellflowcontrolenable Description Use this command to enable XON/XOFF flow control to the shell task. Flow control is disabled by default. Because this command changes the flow control on the console serial port, it must be executed from a session that is logged in from the console serial port. This command cannot run from a Telnet session. This setting is saved in the configuration database; therefore, it is persistent across reboots and power cycles. Notes On dual-CP systems, a reboot on the standby CP is required for this command to take effect. No action is required on the active CP. If flow control is enabled and if the console output is suspended for an extended period of time, the switch might reboot. It is recommended to disable the flow control, using shellFlowControlDisable. The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in place. Refer to chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for details. Operands none Examples To enable flow control: switch:admin> shellflowcontrolenable Enabling flowcontrol flow control is now enabled See Also shellFlowControlDisable 808 Fabric OS Command Reference 53-1001337-01
