Guidelines and Limitations
This section explains the database guidelines for this feature.
For information about CFS merge support, refer to the Cisco MDS 9000 Family NX-OS System Management Configuration Guide for detailed concepts.
When merging two device alias databases, follow these guidelines:
- Verify that two device aliases with different names are not mapped to the same pWWN.
- Verify that two different pWWNs are not mapped to the same device aliases
- Verify that the combined number of the device aliases in both databases does not exceed 8191 (8K). For example, if database N has 6000 device aliases and database M has 2192 device aliases, this merge operation will fail.
