The command will succeed, whether the administration domain is in an activated or deactivated state. Deleting all user-defined Admin Domains When you clear the Admin Domain configuration, all user-defined Admin Domains are deleted, the explicit membership list of AD0 is cleared, and all fabric resources (switches, ports, and devices) are returned to the implicit membership list of AD0. You cannot clear the Admin Domain configuration if zone configurations exist in any of the user-defined Admin Domains. To clear all Admin Domain definitions: 1. Clear all individual AD zone databases, in separate transactions, before proceeding with this operation. 2. Connect to the switch and log in as admin. 3. Switch to the AD255 context, if you are not already in that context. ad --select 255 4. Enter the ad --clear command.

You can use the validate option to list Admin Domain members from AD-unaware switches and non-existing or offline Admin Domain members. You can use the validate option to identify misconfigurations of the Admin Domain. For example, in fabrics with a mix of AD-aware and AD-unaware switches, elements in the Admin Domain member list from old AD-unaware switches are not enforced. Fabric OS 6.1.x administrator guide 165
