Usage Guidelines
The ficon swap portnumber old-port-number new port-number command causes all configuration
associated with old-port-number and new port-number to be swapped, including VSAN configurations.
This command is only associated with the two ports in concerned. You must issue this
VSAN-independent command from the EXEC mode.
If you specify the ficon swap portnumber after swap noshut command, the ports are automatically
initialized.
The ficon swap interface old-interface new-interface command allows you to swap physical Fibre
Channel ports, including port numbers, when there are duplicate port numbers on the switch.
If you specify the ficon swap interface old-interface new-interface after swap noshut command, the
ports are automatically initialized.
Refer to the Cisco MDS 9000 Family CLI Configuration Guide for additional information.
This command is not supported on the Cisco MDS 9124 switch, the Cisco Fabric Switch for HP c-Class
Note
BladeSystem, and the Cisco Fabric Switch for IBM BladeCenter.
Examples
The following example swaps the contents of ports 3 with port 15, shuts them down, and automatically
initializes both ports.
