Configuration management for Virtual Fabrics
8
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role.
2. Enter the configDownload -vf command.
3. Respond to the prompts.
4. Wait for the configuration file to download onto the switch.
You may need to reconnect to the switch.
5. Enter the configDownload command.
6. Respond to the prompts.
7. Wait for the configuration file to download to the switch.
8. Verify the LISL ports are set up correctly.
Example of a non-interactive download from a switch with an FID = 8, to FID 10
configdownload -fid 8 -sfid 10 -ftp
10.1.2.3
,
UserFoo
,config.txt,password
Example of configDownload on a switch
5100:FID128:admin> configdownload -vf
Protocol (scp, ftp, local) [ftp]:
Server Name or IP Address [host]: 10.1.2.3
User Name [user]:
UserFoo
Path/Filename [<home dir>/config.txt]: 5100_FID89.txt
*** CAUTION ***
This command is used to download the VF configuration to the
switch. Afterwards, the switch will be automatically rebooted
and the new VF settings will be used. You will then need to
run configdownload again to install the configuration(s) for
any logical switch(s) that are setup in the new VF configuration.
Do you want to continue [y/n]: y

Restrictions
The following restrictions should be observed when using the configUpload or configDownload
commands when Virtual Fabrics is enabled:
•
The -vf option is incompatible with the –fid, –sfid, or –all options. Any attempt to combine it
with any of the other three will fail the configuration upload or download operation.
•
You are not allowed to modify the Virtual Fabric configuration file after it has been uploaded.
Only minimal verification is done by the configDownload command to ensure it is compatible,
much like the normal downloaded configuration file.
•
After the configDownload -vf command completes and reboots your switch, you must then
download the matching regular configuration using the configDownload -all command. This
ensures proper behavior of the system and logical switches.
•
All of the attributes of the Virtual Fabric configuration file will be downloaded to the system and
take effect. This includes, but is not limited to, logical switch definitions, whether the Virtual
Fabrics feature is enabled or disabled, and the F_Port trunking ports, except the LISL ports.
The LISL ports on the system are not affected by the Virtual Fabric configuration file download.
