2 portDisable portDisable Disables a port or a range of ports. SYNOPSIS portdisable [slot/]port1[-port2] [...] portdisable -i [index1[-index2] [...] [-f]] portdisable -x [hex1[-hex2] [...]] portdisable -slot [slot1[-slot2] [...]] portdisable -h DESCRIPTION NOTES OPERANDS Use this command to disable a port or a range of ports. If the port is connected to another switch when disabled, the fabric may reconfigure. Devices connected to this port can no longer communicate with the fabric. You can identify a single port to be disabled by its port number or by its port index number in decimal or hexadecimal format. Port ranges are supported with port numbers, index numbers(decimal or hexadecimal) or by specifying a slot or a slot range. Use switchShow for a listing of valid ports, slots, and port index numbers. Specifying multiple ports with the index (-i) or slot (-s) option is supported only if PortSwap is disabled. They are not supported on GbE ports and configured F_Port trunks. Use the -i option without a port index argument to display the portSwap status, or alternately use portSwapShow. The front panel LED of a disabled port flashes amber in a two-second cycle. If the port was online before being disabled, a state transition will be indicated in one of the following ways: RSCN, SNMP trap, or Web pop-up window. 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. This command is not supported on FCoE ports. To disable an FCoE port, use fcoe --disable. This command has the following operands: slot On bladed systems only, specifies the slot number of the ports to be disabled, followed by a slash (/). port1[-port2] Disables a single port or a range of ports identified by port numbers. The port range cannot span slots, but you can specify multiple port ranges pairs separated by a space, for example, 3/1-4 4/7-9. -i index1[-index2] Disables a port or a range of ports identified by port index numbers. You may specify multiple index ranges separated by a space, for example, -i 33-38 40-60. -f Ignores nonexisting ports. This operand is valid only with the -i option. -x [hex1 [-hex2]] Disables a port or a range of ports identified by port numbers, index number in hexadecimal format. You may specify multiple port ranges separated by a space, for example, -x 21-26 28-3c. 734 Fabric OS Command Reference 53-1002746-01
