2 portCfgFportBuffers portCfgFportBuffers Synopsis Configures F_Port buffer allocation. portcfgfportbuffers --enable [slot/]port buffers portcfgfportbuffers --disable [slot/]port Description Use this command to change the default buffer allocation for an F_Port and to allocate a specified number of buffers to the port. When port buffer allocation is enabled, the number of buffers specified override the default F_Port buffer allocation. When the configuration is disabled, the default buffer allocation is restored. Only an F_Port can utilize the buffers allocated by this command, and the allocated buffers are reserved only for this port. The F_Port buffer configuration is persistent across system reboots. Use the portBufferShow command to determine current port buffer allocations. .Notes 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. The F_Port buffer feature does not support ports configured as EX_Ports, Mirror Ports, Long Distance Ports, L_Ports, QoS Ports, Fast Write, and Trunk Areas. Operands This command has the following operands: --enable Enables the F_Port buffer configuration on a specified port. A port and buffer allocation must be specified with this option. .--disable slot buffers Disables the F_Port buffer configuration on a specified port. Specifies the slot number on bladed systems, followed by a slash (/). Specifies the number of buffers to be allocated to the specified port. The specified buffer allocation takes effect when the F_Port comes online. This operand is required with the --enable option. The minimum buffer allocation is the default number of buffers plus 1. The maximum is determined by the remaining buffer allocations in the port's port group. Use BportBufferShow to determine the number of remaining free buffers. Examples To allocate 12 buffers to an F_Port: switch:admin> portcfgfportbuffers --enable 2/44 12 To disable the port buffer configuration and return to the default buffer allocation: switch:admin> portcfgfportbuffers --enable 2/44 12 See Also portBufferShow 562 Fabric OS Command Reference 53-1001186-01
