Port commissioning

• 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 decommissioning do not
occur. If all CIMOM servers are reachable, the Management application sends a CAL request to
decommission the port. If some CIMOM servers are reachable and some CIM servers are not
reachable, decommissioning fails and the Management application recommissions the
decommissioned CIM instances. If any of the discovered CIMOM servers are not reachable
then recomissioning is initiated automatically for decommissioned CIM instances.
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
“Viewing a port commissioning deployment report” on page 539).
When the decommission is complete, an application event displays in the Master Log detailing
success or failure.
Recommissioning an F_Port
NOTE
You must configure at least one CIMOM server (refer to “Registering a CIMOM server” on page 526)
before you can recommission an F_Port.
Select the F_Port, and then select Configure > Port Commissioning > Recommission > Port.
While recommissioning is in progress, an up 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
“Viewing a
port commissioning deployment report” on page 539).
When the recommission is complete, an application event displays in the Master Log detailing
success or failure.
