NOTE: VEX_Port Users: If the fabric is already connected, you must leave the ge0 and ge1 ports disabled until after you have configured the VEX_Port; this prevents unintentional merging of the two fabrics. To enable a persistently disabled port: 1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role. 2. Issue the portCfgShow command to view ports that are persistently disabled. 3. After identifying the ports, issue the portCfgPersistentEnable command to enable the ports. 4. Issue the portCfgShow command to verify the port is persistently enabled: switch:admin06> portcfgpersistentenable 8/16 switch:admin06> portcfgpersistentenable 8/17 408 Configuring and monitoring FCIP extension services
