Chapter 3 Configuring Fibre Channel Interfaces

Verifying Fibre Channel Interfaces Configuration

Detailed Steps

To release the shared resources for a port group, follow these steps:

 

Command

Purpose

Step 1

 

 

switch# config t

Enters configuration mode.

 

switch(config)#

 

 

Step 2

 

 

switch(config)# interface fc 1/1

Selects the interface and enters interface

 

switch(config-if)#

configuration submode.

 

 

Tip

You can use an interface range to

 

 

 

release the resources for all interfaces

 

 

 

in a port group.

Step 3

 

 

switch(config-if)# no channel-group

Removes the interface from a PortChannel.

Step 4

 

 

switch(config-if)# shutdown

Disables the interface.

Step 5

 

 

switch(config-if)# out-of-service

Takes the interface out of service.

 

Putting an interface into out-of-service will

 

 

 

cause its shared resource configuration to

 

 

 

revert to default

 

 

 

Do you wish to continue(y/n)? [n] y

 

 

Step 6

 

 

switch(config-if)# no out-of-service

Makes the interface available for service.

 

 

Repeat Step 2 through Step 6 for all the

 

 

interfaces in the port group.

 

 

 

 

Disabling ACL Adjacency Sharing for System Image Downgrade

Fibre Channel ACL adjacency sharing is enabled by default on the switches with an active Generation 2 switching module as of Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 3.0(3), and with an active Generation 3 module as of MDS NX-OS Release 4.1(1). Fibre Channel ACL adjacency sharing improves the performance for zoning and inter-VSAN routing (IVR) network address translation (NAT). To prevent disruptions when downgrading the system image on your switch to a release prior to Cisco SAN-OS Release 3.0(3), enter the following command in EXEC mode:

switch# system no acl-adjacency-sharing

To reenable Fibre Channel ACL adjacency sharing on your switch, enter the following command in EXEC mode:

switch# system acl-adjacency-sharing

Verifying Fibre Channel Interfaces Configuration

To display Fibre Channel interface configuration information, perform one of the following tasks:

 

 

Command

 

Purpose

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

show module

 

Displays the module.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

show module slot recovery-steps

 

Displays the slot for the module.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

show port-resources module slot

 

Displays the port resources for the slot.
