Operational State of a VSAN

A VSAN is in the operational state if the VSAN is active and at least one port is up. This state indicates

When an active VSAN is deleted, all of its attributes are removed from the running configuration.

VSAN-related information is maintained by the system software as follows:

Any commands for a nonconfigured VSAN are rejected. For example, if VSAN 10 is not configured in

the system, then a command request to move a port to VSAN 10 is rejected.

affected when you delete a VSAN from the configuration. When a VSAN is deleted, all the ports in

that VSAN are made inactive and the ports are moved to the isolated VSAN. If the same VSAN is

recreated, the ports do not automatically get assigned to that VSAN. You must explicitly reconfigure

the port VSAN membership (see

VSAN Port Membership Details

VSAN-based runtime (name server), zoning, and configuration (static routes) information is

removed when the VSAN is deleted.

Configured VSAN interface information is removed when the VSAN is deleted.
