Note: Enter commands in lowercase only; mixed case is for readability. fosConfig 2 fosConfig Displays or modifies Fabric OS features. Synopsis fosconfig [--enable feature | --disable feature] | [--show] Description Use this command to enable or disable a feature, or display the current operating status of features on a switch. The following features are supported (see Notes for limitations): FC Routing service (see fcrConfigure) iSCSI service (see iscsiCfg) iSNS client service (see isnscCfg) Operands This command has the following operands: --enable feature Enables a feature on the switch. Valid values for feature are: • fcr The FC Routing service will be enabled on this switch. The FC Routing service is by default disabled on a new switch with Fabric OS v5.2. Use fosConfig --show to determine the default state of the FC Routing service, and then use the appropriate operands to enable or disable it. When the FC Routing service is disabled, this command must be executed to enable it. This command can be run while the switch state is "online". Possible results are: • "FC Routing service is in the process of being disabled, please try again after a few minutes." This means that a command to disable the FC Routing service is still in progress. Wait a few minutes and try again. • "FC Routing service is already enabled." This means that the FC Routing service is already enabled. Use switchShow to display the current state of the FC Routing service. • iSCSI The iSCSI service will be enabled on this switch. By default, iSCSI is disabled. This commmand must be executed to enable the iSCSI service. This command can be run while the switch state is "online". • iSNSC The iSNSC service will be enabled on this switch. By default, iSNSC is disabled. This commmand must be executed to enable the iSNSC service. This command can be run while the switch state is "online". --disable feature Disables a feature on the switch. Valid values for feature are: • fcr The FC Routing service will be disabled on this switch. This command can be run while the switch state is "online". To use this command to disable the FC Routing service only instead of disabling the switch, issue this command, then change the BB fabric ID using fcrConfigure. Use fosConfig --enable fcr to turn FC routing on. To run this command, all enabled EX_Ports and VEX_Ports on the switch must be "offline". If there is an XPath OS switch in the BB fabric, it might take up to 8 minutes to complete the disable process. Possible results are: • "Please disable all EX/VEX_Ports first before running this command." This means that there were EX_Ports or VEX_Ports online when this command was issued. Take these ports offline Fabric OS Command Reference Manual Publication Number: 53-1000240-01 2-239
