Table 36 Fabric-wide consistency policy settings Setting Value When a policy is activated Absent Tolerant Strict null database_id database_id:S Database is not automatically distributed to other switches in the fabric. All updated and new policies of the type specified (SCC, DCC, or both) are distributed to all Fabric 5.2.0 and later switches in the fabric. Pre-Fabric OS 5.2.0 switches are allowed in the fabric, but no automated means are provided to ensure those switches have consistent databases. A warning is issued if the databases do not match. All updated and new policies of the type specified (SCC, DCC, or both) are distributed to all switches in the fabric. To display the fabric-wide consistency policy: 1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role. 2. Enter the fddCfg --showall command. The following example shows policies for a fabric where no consistency policy is defined. switch:admin> fddcfg --showall Local Switch Configuration for all Databases:- DATABASE - Accept/Reject SCC - accept DCC - accept PWD - accept FCS - accept AUTH - accept IPFILTER - accept Fabric Wide Consistency Policy:- "" To set the fabric-wide consistency policy: 1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role. 2. Enter the following command: fddCfg --fabwideset "" where policy_ID is a semicolon-separated list database_setting;database_setting equal to null Exclude the database ID from the list to set the policy to absent. database_id Sets a tolerant policy for a database. The database ID is either SCC, DCC, or FCS. database_id:S Sets the policy to strict. The database ID is either SCC, DCC, or FCS. The following example shows how to set a strict SCC and tolerant DCC fabric-wide consistency policy. switch:admin> fddcfg --fabwideset "SCC:S;DCC" switch:admin> fddcfg --showall Local Switch Configuration for all Databases:- DATABASE - Accept/Reject SCC - accept DCC - accept PWD - accept FCS - accept AUTH - accept IPFILTER - accept Fabric Wide Consistency Policy:- "SCC:S;DCC" 132 Configuring advanced security features
