Resolving merge conflicts
You can resolve the following types of switch configuration conflicts:

Note that not all tests support resolution. If a test supports resolution, the Description column
contains the text 'Resolvable'.
To resolve merge conflicts, complete the following steps.
1. Select the failed test where the Description column contains the text 'Resolvable'.
2. Click Resolve.
A “The switches in fabric Name will be disabled prior to making the configuration change. The
switches will be reenabled after the configuration changes are applied. Please confirm to
proceed.” warning message displays.
3. Click OK on the warning message.
The values of the Fabric chosen on the Set up merge options screen are applied to all devices
in the second fabric. Once the settings are applied the test is run again and the merge results
are updated.
If the test passes, go to step 4.
If an error occurs, an error message displays. You must use Web Tools or the CLI to resolve this
conflict. Click OK on the error message and go to step 4.
If you are resolving a domain ID error, there may be multiple switches involved. If multiple
switches have the domain ID error, the Configure Domain IDs dialog box displays listing all
devices that have domain ID conflict.
a. Select the device you want to resolve the domain ID for in the Available Switches table and
click the right arrow button.
b. Select a new domain ID for the device from the Domain ID list.
c. Repeat steps a and b for each device in the Available Switches table.
d. Click OK on the Configure Domain IDs dialog box.
4. Repeat step 1 through step 3 until all resolvable tests pass.
