FICON Configuration Files
You can save up to 16 FICON configuration files on each FICON-enabled VSAN (in persistent storage).
The file format is proprietary to IBM TM. These files can be read and written by IBM hosts using the
inband CUP protocol. Additionally, you can use the Cisco MDS CLI or FM applications to operate these
FICON configuration files
Multiple FICON configuration files with the same name can exist in the same switch, provide they reside
in different VSANs. For example, you can create a configuration file named XYZ in both VSAN 1 and
VSAN 3.
When you enable the FICON feature in a VSAN, the switches always uses the startup FICON
configuration file, called IPL. This file is created with a default configuration as soon as FICON is
enabled on a VSAN.
FICON configuration files contain the following configuration for each implemented port address:
• Block
•
Prohibit mask
• Port address name
Refer to the
for details on the normal configuration files used by Cisco MDS switches. This configuration file
includes FICON enabled attribute for a VSAN, port number mapping for port channels and FCIP
interfaces, port number to port address mapping, port and trunk allowed VSAN configuration for ports,
in-order guarantee, configuring static domain ID, and fabric binding configuration.
Caution
When FICON is disabled on a VSAN, all the FICON configuration files are irretrievably lost.
