SETTINGS
================================================================================
Setting we deviate from for the default install:
passwords are "password" by default on brocades - CHANGE THEM!!!
timeout 30
modesetall 100 Full
passwd admin set to same admin as other switches
syslogdipadd "X.X.X.X"
date to new time
Gateway = X.X.X.X
firmware upgrade
firmwareDownload "X.X.X.X,"ftp","pub/brocade-2800-v2.6.1","ljsd@ljsdf.com"
================================================================================
reordering of lpfc numbers
when you do a package add/remove, or updates to the lpfc stuff,
it sometimes reorders the lpfc's (thinks the cards you are manipulating
are new so it adds them to the /etc/path_to_inst instead of using the
old path_to_inst entries - you can also manually remove the new entries
path_to_inst)
OR
/usr/sbin/lpfc/convert_path_to_inst all
================================================================================
The prompt will be similar to: switch-#>
To get help use: zonehelp
>switchshow
EXAMPLE: >alicreate "host_port", "WWPN of hostport name"
EXAMPLE: >alicreate "myhost_0", "10:00:00:00:c9:26:ab:80"
>alicreate "xxx", "xxx"
WWPN is listed on the port number of the host you
connected to the switch, if something else is listed,
then host is not cabled or not talking to the switch
>cfgshow
Your changes will be listed at the top in the
"Defined configuration" and not yet in the "Effective configuration:";
It will get to the Effective after you enable it later.
EXAMPLE: >zonecreate "host_port_symm_fa", "host_port;symm_fa"
EXAMPLE: >zonecreate "myhost_0_2162_4a", "myhost_0;symm2162_4a"
>zonecreate "xxx", "xxx"
You will get the FA for the host/port from the EMC docs.
>cfgshow
EXAMPLE: >cfgadd "brocade_100_5_11_01", "myhost_0_2162_4a"
>cfgadd "xxx", "xxx"
Use the line "cfg:" under "Effective configuration"
as the first argument (it is the config file),
the second argument is the new zone you are adding.
EXAMPLE: >cfgenable "brocade_100_5_11_01"
>cfgenable "xxx"
>cfgshow
>cfgsave
-Do a reconfigure reboot
touch /reconfigure
init 6
