Reenabling the switch fabric and verify operation

You must enable the FC switch fabric and make sure that the switches and devices are operating correctly.

Steps

  1. Enable the switches: switchCfgPersistentEnable
    If this command is not available, the switch should be in the enabled state after the fastBoot command is issued.
    Example
    The following example shows the command issued on FC_switch_A_1:
    FC_switch_A_1:admin> switchCfgPersistentEnable
    The following example shows the command issued on FC_switch_B_1:
    FC_switch_B_1:admin> switchCfgPersistentEnable
  2. Verify that the switches are online and all devices are properly logged in: switchShow
    Example
    The following example shows the command issued on FC_switch_A_1:
    FC_switch_A_1:admin> switchShow
    The following example shows the command issued on FC_switch_B_1:
    FC_switch_B_1:admin> switchShow
  3. Run the fmc_dc utility to ensure that the 7-Mode fabric MetroCluster is functioning correctly.
    You can ignore errors related to Traffic Isolation (TI) zoning and trunking.
  4. Repeat the tasks for the second switch fabric.
