fabricName 2 fabricName Configures the fabric name parameter. SYNOPSIS fabricname --set fabric_name fabricname --clear fabricname --show fabricname --help DESCRIPTION NOTES OPERANDS EXAMPLES Use this command to configure a name for the fabric. With Virtual Fabrics it is not uncommon to have multiple fabrics in a single chassis. These logical fabrics are identified by their Fabric ID. With the fabricName command, you can address a fabric by name. This command provides an option for addressing fabrics by name. However, the fabric name does not replace the FID; the functionality of the FID is unaffected by the fabric name. 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. Fabric name support requires Fabric OS v7.0.0 firmware and will be lost on downgrade. This command has the following operands: --set fabric_name Sets the fabric name. The fabric name is a unique character string and can be up to 128 characters long. You can use any character including spaces and meta-characters. A fabric name that includes spaces must be included in double quotation marks. Tabs are not permitted. By default, the fabric name is not configured. --clear Clears the fabric name. --show Displays the fabric name. If a fabric name is not configured, an appropriate message is displayed. --help Displays the command usage. To set and display the fabric name: switch:user> fabricname --show Fabric Name is not configured switch:user> fabricname --set myfabric@1 Fabric Name set to "myfabric@1" switch:user> fabricname --show Fabric Name: "myfabric@1" To set a fabric name that includes spaces: switch:user> fabricname --set "my new fabric" Fabric Name set to "my new fabric" Fabric OS Command Reference 271 53-1002746-01
