McDATA® 4Gb SAN Switch for HP p-Class BladeSystem command line interface guide 35
Modify a switch configuration
To modify a switch configuration, you must open an Admin session with the Admin Start command. An
Admin session prevents other accounts from making changes at the same time through Telnet, McDATA
Web Server, or another management application. You must also open a Config Edit session with the
Config Edit command and indicate which configuration you want to modify. If you do not specify a
configuration name the active configuration is assumed. The Config Edit session provides access to the
Set Config commands with which you make modifications to the port, switch, port threshold alarm, or
zoning configuration components as shown in the following example:
McDATA4GbSAN #> admin start
McDATA4GbSAN (admin) #> config edit default
The config named default is being edited.
McDATA4GbSAN (admin-config)#> set config port . . .
McDATA4GbSAN (admin-config)#> set config security . . .
McDATA4GbSAN (admin-config)#> set config switch . . .
McDATA4GbSAN (admin-config)#> set config threshold . . .
McDATA4GbSAN (admin-config)#> set config zoning . . .
The Config Save command saves the changes you made during the Config Edit session. In this
case, changes to the configuration named Default are being saved to a new configuration named
config_10132003. However, the new configuration does not take effect until you activate it with the
Config Activate command:
McDATA4GbSAN (admin-config)#> config save config_10132003
McDATA4GbSAN (admin)#> config activate config_10132003
McDATA4GbSAN (admin)#> admin end
When you have finished making changes to the switch, the Admin End command releases the Admin
session for other administrators. See the ”Admin command” on page 99. See the ”Config command” on
page 100.
The following is an example of the Set Config Switch command. See Table 23 for a description of
the switch configuration parameters.
McDATA4GbSAN #> admin start
McDATA4GbSAN (admin) #> config edit
McDATA4GbSAN (admin-config) #> set config switch
