2 Note: Enter commands in lowercase only; mixed case is for readability. ad -s "switch_list" • Supports node or port WWNs. • End-device members, whose WWNs are used in an Admin Domain definition, need not be online when the Admin Domain is created (similar to a zoneCreate operation). • Provides rights to zone the devices. • Provides administrative view rights to the switch port the device is connected to: for example, portShow, nsShow, and so forth; does not provide port control rights: for example, portDisable, portEnable, and so forth. Specifies the list of switches in an Admin Domain, in quotation marks. Separate each entry in the switch list with a semicolon (;). Specify the switch in one of the following formats: • Switch WWN • Domain ID Note Any switch member specified using Domain ID format will be converted into a switch WWN based on the current fabric information. Operations with switch list will fail if the domain ID to switch WWN lookup fails. switch_list grants switch administrative operations such as switchDisable, switchEnable, reboot, firmwareDownload, and so forth. Ownership of a switch implicitly provides port control capability on all its ports, but no zoning control. "command_list" Specifies a list of commands to execute in the Admin Domain context. This operand is valid only with --exec. present_ad_id Specifies an Admin Domain name or number. This operand is valid only with -rename. new_ad_id Specifies an Admin Domain name or number. This operand is valid only with -rename. -i Displays the implicit members of AD0. This operand is valid only with --show. -m mode Specifies the display mode for information about the Admin Domain configuration. This operand is valid only with --show and --validate. mode can be: 0 Displays the Admin Domain configuration in the current transaction buffer. 1 Displays the Admin Domain configuration stored in persistent memory (defined configuration). 2 Displays the Admin Domain configuration currently enforced (effective configuration). The operands described above are used with the following options: --activate ad_id Activates an Admin Domain. An Admin Domain enforces only if it is in an activated state. AD0 is always in an activated state. By default, after the Admin Domain is enabled, the devices specified in the Admin Domain are not able to see each other until they are zoned together. ad --activate prompts for confirmation. 2-6 Fabric OS Command Reference Manual Publication Number: 53-1000240-01
