Synopsis fabricname --set fabric_name fabricname --clear fabricname --show fabricname --help Description 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.
