Decommissioning an F-Port

NOTE

You must configure at least one CIMOM server (refer to

“Registering a CIMOM server”

on page 445)

before you can decommission an F-Port.

NOTE

Fabric tracking must be enabled (refer to

“Enabling fabric tracking”

on page 187) to maintain the

decommissioned port details (such as port type, device port wwn, and so on). Do not accept
changes in the Management application client.

1. Select the F-Port, then select Configure > Port Commissioning > Decommission > Port.

The Port Commission Confirmation dialog box displays.

2. Choose one of the following options:

Apply Default Settings (default) — Select to have the Management application contact all
registered CIMOM servers within the fabric affected by the action and obtains the status
from each CIMOM server. If all CIMOM servers are okay, the Management application
sends a CAL Request to decommission the port. If even one CIMOM server is not okay,
decommissioning fails.

Force — Select to force the port decommission. The Management application still contacts
all registered CIMOM servers within the fabric affected by the action, but forces the port
decommission regardless of the CIMOM server response.

NOTE

If the CIMOM server is not reachable or the credentials fail, F-Port decommission does not
occur.

3. Click OK on the Port Commission Confirmation dialog box.

While decommissioning is in progress, a down arrow icon displays next to the port icon in the
Product List. You can view the port commissioning results in the deployment reports (refer to

“Port commissioning deployment report”

on page 453).

When the decommission is complete, an application event displays in the Master Log detailing
success or failure.
