Modifying the Fibre Channel domain ID (Optional) If desired, you can modify the Fibre Channel domain ID. The default Fibre channel domain ID is domain 1. If the switch is not powered on until after it is connected to the fabric and the default Fibre channel domain ID is already in use, the domain ID for the new switch is automatically reset to a unique value. If the switch is connected to the fabric after is has been powered on and the default domain ID is already in use, the fabric segments. The domain IDs that are currently in use can be determined using the fabricshow command. The number of domains is determined by your domain fabric licensing. See "SAN Switch licensing" on page 25. To modify the domain ID: 1. Type switchdisable to disable the switch. 2. Type configure. This prompts display sequentially; type a new value or press Enter to accept each default value. 3. At the Fabric Parameters prompt, type Y and press Enter: Fabric parameters (yes, y, no, n): [no] y 4. Enter a unique domain ID, such as the domain ID used by the previous switch, if still available: Domain: (1..239) [1] 3 5. Complete the remaining prompts or press Ctrl+D to accept the remaining default settings. 6. Enter the switchenable command to Re-enable the switch. 7. Optionally, specify any custom status policies: a. Enter the switchstatuspolicyset command at the prompt. This command sets the policy parameters that determine the overall switch status. b. Customize the status policies. To deactivate the alarm for a particular condition, enter 0 at the prompt for that condition. 56 Installing and configuring
