lsCfg

-b | -base

Creates a base logical switch on the chassis. A base logical switch communicates
among different logical switches. Legacy switches can be connected to the base
logical switch through EX_Ports, and interswitch links (ISLs) between base logical
switches enable communication among different logical switches. This operand is
optional.

-f | -force

Executes the command without confirmation. This operand is optional.

--delete

Deletes a logical switch with the specified fabric ID. The specified logical switch
must exist and no ports should be configured on this partition. You must remove
all ports from the logical switch before deleting the logical switch instance. Use the
lscfg --config command to remove the ports.

FID

Specifies the Fabric ID of the logical switch. This operand is required.

--config

Configures the specified logical switch. This command assigns ports to the logical
switch specified by a given FID. The ports are removed from the partition on which
they are currently configured. This command prompts for confirmation, indicating
that the specified ports will be disabled. The following operands are supported:

FID

Specifies the fabric ID of the logical switch. This operand is required.

-slot slot1[-slot2]

Specifies the slot number or a range of slot numbers separated by a dash, for
example -slot 3-5. This operand is required.

-port port1[-port2]

Specifies the ports to be assigned to the logical switch. Provide a valid port, or a
range of ports separated by a dash, for example -port 3-8. This operand is
optional; if omitted, all ports on the specified slots are assigned.

-f | -force

Executes the command without confirmation. This operand is optional.

--restore_to_default FID

Moves all vacant ports in the logical switch specified by FID to the default switch.
Use this command when lsCfg --show displays no ports, but the switch continues
to generate errors indicating that there are ports on the switch.

--restore_slot_to_default slot

Moves all ports on a specified slot to the default switch.

--change

Changes the fabric ID of a logical switch, creates a base logical switch out of an
existing logical switch, or removes base switch properties. The -newfid and -base
operands are exclusive and may not be combined. The following operands are
supported:

FID

Specifies the Fabric ID of the logical switch. This operand is required.

-n | -newfid FID

Changes the fabric ID of an existing logical switch. This command effectively
removes the logical switch from a given logical fabric and makes it part of another
logical fabric.
