configuration information, and clears the event log. After the pending firmware is
activated, the configuration is recovered. This process may take a few minutes. To
save the event log to a file before resetting, enter the
Set Log
Archive command.

Notes
To ensure a successful non-disruptive activation, you should first satisfy the
following conditions:
No changes are being made to switches in the fabric including
powering up, powering down, disconnecting or connecting ISLs,
changing switch configurations, or installing firmware.
No port on the switch is in the diagnostic state.
No Zoning Edit sessions are open on the switch.
No changes are being made to attached devices, including powering
up, powering down, disconnecting, connecting, and HBA configuration
changes.
For a fabric in which one or more switches are running firmware prior
to version 7.4, only one Enterprise Fabric Suite 2007 session can be
open.
Install firmware on one switch at a time in the fabric. If you are installing
firmware on one switch, wait two minutes after the activation is complete
before installing firmware on a second switch.
Ports that change states during the non-disruptive activation, will be reset.
When the non-disruptive activation is complete, Enterprise Fabric Suite
2007 and QuickTools sessions reconnect automatically. However, Telnet
sessions must be restarted manually.
This command clears the event log and all counters.
NOTE:
After upgrading firmware that includes changes to QuickTools, an open
QuickTools session may indicate that the firmware is not supported. This
means the new firmware is not supported by the previous QuickTools
version. To correct this situation, close the QuickTools session and the
browser window, then open a new QuickTools session.
