fabricShow
Displays fabric membership information.
Synopsis fabricshow [-membership | -chassis ]
fabricshow -help
Description Use this command to display information about switches in the fabric.
If the switch is initializing or is disabled, the message “no fabric” is displayed. In a mixed fabric,
fabricshow must be executed on a switch that runs Fabric OS v5.3.0 or later; otherwise, IPv6
information is lost, since switches running earlier versions do not recognize an IPv6-configured
switch.
Running this command on an FCR or edge switch does not provide any router information; running
this command on an edge switch with the -m option does provide router information.
If the fabric is reconfiguring, some or all switches may not be displayed; otherwise, the following
fields are displayed depending on the command option used:
Switch ID The switch Domain_ID and embedded port D_ID.
World Wide Name The switch WWN.
Enet IP Addr The switch Ethernet IP address for IPv4 and IPv6 configured switches. For
IPv6 switches, only the static IP address displays.
FC IP Addr The switch FC IP address.
Name The switch symbolic name. An arrow (>) indicates the principal switch.
FC Router IP Addr The IP address of the FC router. This field is empty if the switch is not an FC
Router or it the FC Router does not support it.
FC Router Name The FC Router symbolic name. This field is empty if the switch is not an FC
Router or it the FC Router does not support it.
Chassis WWN The world wide name of the chassis.
Chassis Name The name of the chassis.
Note The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may
be in place. Refer to chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS commands" and Appendix A, "Command
Availability" for details.
