Note: Enter commands in lowercase only; mixed case is for readability. fcrXlateConfig 2 fcrXlateConfig Displays or persistently configures a translate (xlate) domain ID for both the EX_port-attached fabric and the backbone fabric. Synopsis fcrxlateconfig importedFabricID exportedFabricID preferredDomainID fcrxlateconfig [-r] importedFabricID exportedFabricID Description Use this command to display a translate domain ID or change the preferred domain ID. A translate domain is a phantom domain created by an FC Router. FC Routers emulate proxy devices representing real devices in remote fabrics. These proxy devices are emulated to be connected to translate domains. Translate domains are presented to a fabric as residing topologically behind front phantom domains (domains created by an EX_Port). In the case of backbone fabrics, translate domains are topologically behind an E_Port. In every EX_Port-attached edge fabric and backbone fabric, there can be a translate domain for every FC Router-accessible remote fabric. During a fabric build, the translate domain requests a domain ID from the principal switch in the EX_Port-attached edge fabric. The domain ID requested is the preferred domain ID. You can set the preferred domain ID when the translate domain is not active and is persistently saved. The principal switch attempts to provide the translate domain with the requested domain ID, but might not provide it if there are domain ID conflicts with other domains in the fabric. If the requested domain ID (such as the preferred domain ID) is unavailable, the domain ID assignment is completely at the discretion of the principal switch. The assignment domain ID is persistently stored and is used as the preferred domain ID in the future. Information displayed is not related to the entire BB. The FC Router displays only connections to an edge fabric for which there are xlate domain IDs. Any changes you intend to make using this command should be issued on the switches to which the edge fabrics are directly attached. Operands This command has the following operands: -r Removes the preferred domain ID. The translate domain must be inactive to remove the preferred domain ID. importedFabricID Specifies the fabric ID (1 through 128) of the fabric that contains the translate domain. exportedFabricID Specifies the fabric ID (1 through 128) of the remote fabric represented by this translate domain. preferredDomainID Specifies the preferred domain ID (1 through 239) of the translate phantom. -fcrxlateconfig Sets the preferred domain ID (1-239) to preferredDomainID for the translate phantom. The translate domain must be inactive to set the preferred domain ID. importedFabricID Specifies the fabric ID (1 through 128) of the fabric that contains the translate domain. exportedFabricID Specifies the fabric ID (1 through 128) of the remote fabric represented by this translate domain. preferredDomainID Specifies the preferred domain ID (1 through 239) of the translate phantom.
