switchCfgPersistentDisable
Disables a switch persistently.
SYNOPSIS
switchcfgpersistentdisable
switchcfgpersistentdisable --setdisablestate
switchcfgpersistentdisable --disable
switchcfgpersistentdisable --help
DESCRIPTION
Use this command to persistently disable the switch immediately or after reboot. All Fibre Channel ports
are taken offline. If the switch was part of a fabric, the remaining switches reconfigure. The switch
remains disabled even after a reboot.
As each port is disabled, the front panel LEDs change to a slow-flashing amber.
You can temporarily enable a persistently disabled switch with the switchEnable command. A
temporarily enabled switch remains disabled after a reboot.
NOTES
Performance Monitoring cannot be added to any port on a persistently disabled switch.
The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in
place. Refer to Chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS Commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for
details.
