vcs (logical chassis cluster mode)
Changes RBridge ID and/or VCS ID of a logical chassis cluster mode and, with the no form of the
command, converts a logical chassis cluster to a fabric cluster.
Synopsis
vcs [rbridge-id rbridge-id] [vcsid vcsid]
no vcs [rbridge-id rbridge-id] [vcsid vcsid] logical-chassis enable
no vcs logical-chassis enable rbridge-id {all | range} default-config
Operands
rbridge-id rbridge-id Changes the existing RBridge ID.
vcsid vcsid
Changes the VCS ID. The range for this value is 1 to 8192. The default is 1.
logical-chassis enable
Used with the no form of this command, transitions the node from
logical chassis cluster mode to fabric cluster mode.
rbridge-id [all | range]
Specifies that you want to either convert all RBridge IDs in the logical
chassis cluster to fabric cluster mode, or that you want to convert only a
range of RBridge IDs. (You can also specify just one RBridge ID.) Ranges can
be specified with hyphens, separated by commas, or contain a mixture of
both. Do not use a space after a comma when specifying a range of IDs. For
example, to specify RBridges 5 through 10 and RBridge 15, enter: rbridge-id
5,10,15
default-config
Uses the default configuration when the nodes are converted to fabric
cluster mode. This is a required parameter.
Defaults
None
Command Modes
Privileged EXEC mode
Description
Use this command to change the RBridge ID and/or the VCS ID on a switch. At the same time, you
can change the VCS ID and transition the node from logical chassis cluster mode to fabric cluster
mode. You can also convert the cluster from logical chassis cluster mode to fabric cluster mode
without changing the RBridge ID or VCS ID.
Usage Guidelines
For examples of how to use the no form of this command, referto the Examples.
Examples
To change the RBridge ID to 10 and VCS ID to 35:
switch# vcs rbridge-id 10 vcsid 35
To change an RBridge ID from 8 to 10:
switch# vcs rbridge-id 10
During reboot, enter the following command on the principal node to disable the old RBridge
ID:
switch# no vcs enable rbridge-id 8
