Set up Chassis Basic Configuration
(Switch) This will run the iba_chassis_admin configure command which will

NOTE:
Any QLogic or SilverStorm 9000 chassis must be running firmware version
4.0.0.4.3 or later to perform this function. If the chassis is not up to this level,
it will need to be manually updated using the chassis GUI. See the
SilverStorm 9000 Users Guide for more information.
NOTE:
Consult the relevant chassis firmware release notes to ensure any
prerequisites for the upgrade to the new firmware level have been met prior
to performing the upgrade using FastFabric.
