portCfgPersistence portCfgPersistence Sets or removes the persistent disable flag on a port or a range of ports. Synopsis portcfgpersistence --set [-persistentenable | -pe] [-persistentdisable | -pd] [slot/]port1[-port2] [...] portcfgpersistence --set [-persistentenable | -pe] [-persistentdisable | -pd] -i [index1[-index2] [...] [-f]] portcfgpersistence --set [-persistentenable | -pe] [-persistentdisable | -pd] -x [index1[-index2] [...] [-f]] portcfgpersistence --set [-persistentenable | -pe] [-persistentdisable | -pd] -slot [slot1[-slot2] [...] portcfgpersistence -h Description Use this command to set or remove the persistent disable flag on a port or a range of ports. You can identify a single port to be configured by its port number or by its port index number. Port ranges are supported with index numbers 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), (-x), 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. This command only sets or removes the flag for persistent disabling of the port. The switch still runs power-on diagnostics and initializes a persistently disabled port. The portEnable, switchEnable, and bladeEnable commands do not enable a specific port or ports alone, but these commands succeed on a switch with one or more persistently disabled ports. The persistent switch disable or enable configuration does not alter the persistent disable or enable configurations of the ports within the switch. Because ports are by default persistently enabled, the persistently disabled state of a port is cleared by the portCfgDefault command. Notes This command is blocked if the persistent disable flag is set when the port is currently enabled. This command is blocked if the switch is operating in the FICON Management Server mode (fmsmode); instead, use portDisable with Active=Saved mode enabled. This command is not supported on FCoE ports. To disable an FCoE port, use fcoe --disable. The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric restrictions that may be in place. Refer to "Using Fabric OS Commands" and "Command Availability" for details. Operands This command has the following operands: slot On bladed systems only, specifies the slot number of the ports to set the flag, followed by a slash (/). 714 Brocade Fabric OS Command Reference 53-1004112-02
