Switch Priority
Any new switch can become the principal switch when it joins a stable fabric. During the principal switch selection phase, the switch with the highest priority becomes the principal switch. If two switches have the same configured priority, the switch with the lower WWN becomes the principal switch.
The priority configuration is applied to runtime when the fcdomain is restarted (see the "Domain Restart" topic). This configuration is applicable to both disruptive and nondisruptive restarts.
