Usage Information
Configure the maximum buffer available for PFC traffic. You can choose to increase or
decrease the buffer size that is allocated in the system by default. However, if you
modify the PFC buffer size lower than the previously configured size, the system
determines whether this reduction in size is valid without disrupting the existing
configuration. In such a scenario, disable and re-enable DCB. For example, if you
modify the total buffer size as 4000 KB from the previous size of 5000 KB, an error
message is displayed that this reduction cannot be performed owing to existing system
configuration because of queues that are being currently in process.
The lossless queue limit per port is validated based on the dcb pfc-queues
command. PFC queue configuration identifies the maximum number of queues a port
