-b | -base

Turns an existing logical switch into a base switch. When this command is issued
on a switch that is already a base switch, this command removes the base switch
properties. This command disables the current logical switch. After making the
change, you must re-enable the switch.

-f | -force

Executes the command without confirmation. This operand is optional.

--show

Displays the partition configuration on a switch or chassis. Without any operands,
the command displays all logical switches and the FC ports assigned to them. For
each switch, the FID and switch role are displayed: base switch (BS) or default
switch (DS). The following operands are optional with the --show option.

-ge

Displays partition configuration information for GbE ports. This operand is valid
only on the Brocade 7800/FX8-24 platforms.

-provision

Displays the partition configuration for all slots, regardless of the slot's status. This
operand is valid only on a chassis and can be used with or without the -ge option.

--help

Displays the command usage.
