Description

Use this command to change the RBridge ID on a switch. At the same time, you can change the
VCS ID and enable the logical chassis cluster mode for the switch.

Usage Guidelines

Each time you change the Brocade VCS Fabric configuration, the switch resets to the default
configuration and reboots automatically. Make sure to save the configuration before you issue any
of the commands shown in the Synopsis.

To transition a switch from logical chassis cluster mode back to standalone mode, run the
command: no vcs enable

NOTE

Platforms that allow standalone mode are the Brocade VDS 6710-54, 6720, and 6730.

Examples

To convert a node that is in fabric cluster mode to logical chassis cluster mode, while
simultaneously changing its RBridge ID to 10 and its VCS ID to 35:

switch# vcs rbridge-id 10 vcsid 35 logical-chassis enable
