switch(config)#
Step 1
Configures the database for a VSAN.
vsan database
Example:

switch(config-vsan-db)#
Step 2
Creates a VSAN with the specified ID if that VSAN
does not exist already.
vsan vsan-id
Example:
switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 50
Step 3
Assigns the membership of the specified interface to
the VSAN.
switch(config-vsan-db)#
vsan vsan-id
interface
{
fc slot
/
port
|
vfc vfc-id
}
Step 4
If this is a QSFP+ GEM, the
slot
/
port
syntax
is
slot
/
QSFP-module
/
port
.
Note
Updates the membership information of the interface
to reflect the changed VSAN.
switch(config-vsan-db)#
vsan vsan-id
{
fc slot
/
port
|
vfc vfc-id
}
Step 5
To remove the VSAN membership of a FC or
vFC interface, assign the VSAN membership
of that interface to another VSAN. Cisco
recommends that you assign it to VSAN 1.
