Chapter 8 Fibre Channel Commands npv auto-load-balance disruptive Send comments to [email protected] npv auto-load-balance disruptive To enable N Port Virtualization (NPV) disruptive load-balancing, use the npv auto-load-balance disruptive command. To disable this feature, use the no form of the command. npv auto-load-balance disruptive no npv auto-load-balance disruptive Syntax Description This command has no other arguments or keywords. Command Default None Command Modes Configuration mode Command History Release 4.0(0)N1(2a) Modification This command was introduced. Usage Guidelines Disruptive load-balancing can be configured only in NPV mode. When disruptive load-balancing is enabled, NPV redistributes the server interfaces across all available NP uplinks when a new NP uplink becomes operational. To move a server interface from one NP uplink to another NP uplink, NPV forces reinitialization of the server interface so that the server performs a new login to the core switch. This action causes traffic disruption on the attached end devices. To avoid disruption of server traffic, enable this feature only after adding a new NP uplink, and then disable it again after the server interfaces have been redistributed. Examples The following example shows how to enable disruptive load-balancing: switch(config)# npv auto-load-balance disruptive Related Commands Command npv enable show npv status Description Enables NPV mode. Displays the NPV current status. OL-16599-01 Cisco Nexus 5000 Series Command Reference 8-105
