Table 26 Switch operations Allowed on FCS switches secPolicyRemove (Allowed on all switches for SCC/DCC policies as long as its not fabric-wide) Allowed on all switches secPolicyActivate fddcfg --fabwideset Any fabric-wide commands All zoning commands except the show commands All AD commands secPolicySave secPolicyAbort SNMP commands configupload Any local-switch commands Any AD command that does not affect fabric-wide configuration FCS enforcement does not apply to pre-5.3.0 switches and they will be able to initiate all operations. Overview of steps to create and manage the FCS policies Whether your intention is to create new FCS policies or manage your current FCS policies, you must follow certain steps to ensure the domains throughout your fabric have the same policy. The local-switch WWN cannot be deleted from the FCS policy. 1. Set the pre-6.0 switches in the fabric to accept the FCS policy using the fddcfg --localaccept/localreject command. 2. Create the FCS policy using the secPolicyCreate command. 3. Activate the policy using the secPolicyActivate command. 4. If your switches are set to accept distribution of the policies, you can use the distribute -p command to either sent the policies to intended domains, or the wild card (*) character to send the policies to all switches. To create an FCS policy: 1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role. 2. Type secPolicyCreate "FCS_POLICY", "member;...;member". member indicates a switch that is eligible to become a primary or back-up FCS switch. Specify switches by WWN, Domain ID, or switch name. Enter the wild card (*) character to indicate all the switches in the fabric. For example, to create an FCS policy that allows a switch with Domain ID 2 to become a primary FCS and domain id 4 to become a backup FCS: switch:admin> secpolicycreate "FCS_POLICY", "2;4" FCS_POLICY has been created To save or activate the new policy, enter either the secPolicySave or the secPolicyActivate command. Once the policy has been activated you can distribute the policy. NOTE: FCS policy should be consistent across the fabric. If the policy is inconsistent in the fabric, then you will not be able to perform any fabric-wide configurations from the primary FCS. Modifying the Primary FCS To fail over to a new Primary switch, use the secPolicyFCSMove command to change the order in which switches are listed in the FCS policy. To modify the order of FCS switches: 1. Log in to the primary FCS switch using an account assigned to the admin role. 2. Type secPolicyShow "Defined", "FCS_POLICY".
