Port commissioning overview

Recommissioning all ports on a switch or blade

NOTE

All ports on the switch or blade must be managed by the Management application.

Select the switch or logical switch for which you want to recommission all ports, then select

Configure > Port Commissioning > Recommission > All F-Ports on the Switch/Blade.

NOTE

You can only recommission ports from the logical switch, not the physical chassis.

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 “Port

commissioning deployment report” on page 376).

When the recommission is complete, an application event displays in the Master Log detailing

success or failure.
