--disable feature
Disables a feature on the switch. Valid values for feature include the following:
fcr
Disables the FC Routing service on the switch. All enabled EX_Ports and
VEX_Ports on the switch must be offline for this command to succeed.
To use this command to disable the FC Routing service only instead of disabling
the switch, issue this command, then change the BB fabric ID using
fcrConfigure.
When disabling the FCR service, you may encounter the following system
messages:
"Please disable all EX/VEX_Ports first before running this command." This means
that there were EX_Ports or VEX_Ports online when this command was issued.
Take these ports offline and try the command again.
"FC Routing service is already disabled" -This means that the FC Routing service
is already disabled.
vf
Disables Virtual Fabrics on the switch. This command prompts for confirmation,
because the chassis reboots after this command is executed.
ethsw
Disables the Ethernet switch service. Ethernet switching is disabled by default.
This operation reboots the switch and is therefore disruptive.
--show
Displays the current operating status of features on the switch.
