DNS name:
switch:admin> tsclockserver "10.32.170.1;10.32.170.2;ntp.localdomain.net"
Updating Clock Server configuration...done.
Updated with the NTP servers
Changes to the clock server value on the principal or primary FCS switch are
propagated to all switches in the fabric
Verifying the persistent PID feature
Before connecting the SAN768B-2 to the fabric, verify that the WWN-based
persistent port identifier (PID) feature on the SAN768B-2 matches the other
switches in the fabric. This parameter must be identical for all switches in the
fabric and is set using the
configure
command as shown in this example.
switch:admin> configure
Configure...
Fabric parameters (yes, y, no, n): [no]
y
Domain: (1..239) [1]
Enable a 256 Area Limit
(0 = No,
1 = Zero Based Area Assignment,
2 = Port Based Area Assignment): (0..2) [0] 1
WWN Based persistent PID (yes, y, no, n): [no] yes
<command output truncated>
You can check the PID setting using the
configshow
command as in the following
example. You can use the | grep -i pid qualifier to pinpoint the PID information.
switch:admin> configshow | grep -i pid
fabric.ops.mode.pidFormat:1
fabric.wwnPidMode:1
The 1 indicates that the WWN-based persistent PID feature is enabled. The default
value is 0 for disabled.
