Command Modes


Configuration mode.

This command was introduced in Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 1.3(1).

Usage Guidelines

By default, all three N-port types (initiator, mgmt, and target) are in VSAN 1. Explicitly remove it from VSAN 1 if this is not required by your network.

The VSAN number can be any number from 1 to 4096. Only 64 VSANs for all initiator/mgmt/target are allowed (meaning, you can have initiator in VSANs 1-30, target in VSANs 31-60, and mgmt in VSANs 61-64). If the target, initiator, and mgmt overlap in VSANs, each overlap is also included in the total VSAN count.

A mgmt N-port can only exist in 4 of these 64 VSANs.

You can specify a range of interfaces by issuing a command with the following example format:

interface svc 1/1 space , space svc 2/1-2

This command configures Slot 1 Node 1 as an SVC interface and simultaneously configures Slot 2, Nodes 1and 2 as SVC interfaces.

Place the disk, host, and other SVC nodes in the appropriate VSAN for any configuration to be completely established

Examples

The following example configures the initiator N-port on VSAN 1, the target N-port on VSAN 2, and the management N-port on VSAN 3.

Syntax Description

svc-ibmcli

Enters the IBM CLI configuration mode.

cluster-name

Specifies a new cluster.

cluster-name

Specifies a cluster name.

node svc

Specifies a node in the SVC interface.

slot-number

Specifies the slot number of the Caching Service Module (CSM).

node-number

Specifies the node number of the SVC instance running on the CSM. This number ranges from 1 to 2 nodes per module.

IBM-CLI-command

Specifies the IBM TotalStorage command to be executed

Command Default

None.

Command Modes


EXEC mode.

This command was introduced in Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 1.3(1).

Usage Guidelines

When you enter the IBM TotalStorage shell, all future commands are interpreted directly by this shell. Type exit to return to the Cisco MDS switch prompt.

Examples

The following example enters the SVC configuration mode and displays all options in this mode.


switch# svc-ibmcli cluster-name SampleCluster
Attaching to config node for cluster SampleCluster
To exit type 'exit', to abort type '$.'
IBM_svc:admin>
switch# svc-ibmcli node svc 2/1

svc-purge-wwn module

To remove all configured WWNs for the CSM from the running configuration, use the svc-purge-wwn module command.

svc-purge-wwn module module-number

Syntax Description

svc-purge-wwn

Purges the WWN for the CSM.

module module-number

Specifies the slot number for the CSM.

Command Default

None.

Command Modes


EXEC mode.

This command was introduced in Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 1.3(1).

Usage Guidelines

This command also purges all system allocated pWWNs and nWWNs from the system and will never be used again (by the system or by SVC interfaces). New system values will be allocated for all pWWN/nWWNs for the module.

Examples

The following example enters the SVC configuration mode and displays all options in this mode.


switch# svc purge-wwn module 2
!!!WARNING!  This command will purge all SVC system allocated
    WWNs for the specified module.  These WWNs will be lost.
    All user configured WWNs will be removed from the
    running-config, but not from the startup-config.
This operation can take a long time.  Other CLI commands
    on the system may be stopped while this operation is
    in progress.

Command Modes


SVC configuration mode—cluster configuration submode.

This command was introduced in Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 1.3(1).

Usage Guidelines

The cluster configuration submode prompt is (switch(svc-cluster)#).

The VDisk submode prompt is switch (svc-cluster-vdisk)#

Extents are allowed from all MDisks in the list

Examples

The following example enters the cluster configuration mode for SampleCluster and ---


switch(svc)# cluster config SampleCluster
switch(svc-cluster)# vdisk add Vdisk1 iogroup 1 mdisk-grp Mdisk1 ?
  capacity  Vdisk add name iogroup mdisk-grp
  import    Vdisk add import
switch(svc-cluster)# vdisk add Vdisk1 iogroup 1 mdisk-grp Mdisk1 capacity ?
  <0-2147483647>  Enter the capacity
switch(svc-cluster)# vdisk add Vdisk1 iogroup 1 mdisk-grp Mdisk1 capacity 5000 ?
  gb  Vdisk add name iogroup mdisk-grp capacity
  mb  Vdisk add name iogroup mdisk-grp capacity
  pb  Vdisk add name iogroup mdisk-grp capacity
  tb  Vdisk add name iogroup mdisk-grp capacity
switch(svc-cluster)# vdisk add Vdisk1 iogroup 1 mdisk-grp Mdisk1 capacity 5000 gb ?
  clean           Vdisk add clean
  mdisk-list      Vdisk add mdisk-list
  preferred-node  Vdisk add sequential mdisk
  sequential      Vdisk add sequential
  <cr>            Carriage Return
switch(svc-cluster)# vdisk add VDISK1 iogroup 1 mdisk-grp Mdisk1 capacity 0 gb
switch(svc-cluster)# vdisk VDISK1
switch(svc-cluster-vdisk)# ?
