Activating DPVM Config Databases

When you explicitly activate the DPVM config database, the DPVM config database becomes the active DPVM database. Activation may fail if conflicting entries are found between the DPVM config database and the currently active DPVM database. However, you can force activation to override conflicting entries.

Detailed Steps

To activate the DPVM config database, follow these steps:

  1. Expand Fabricxx> All VSANs, and then select DPVM from the Logical Attributes pane.

    2. You see the DPVM configuration in the Information pane.

  2. Click the Action tab and set the Action drop-down menu to activate or forceActivate to activate the DPVM config database.
  3. Click the CFS tab and select the Config Action drop-down menu for the master database.
  4. Select commit from the drop-down menu to distribute these changes or abort to discard the changes.

Note     To disable DPVM, you must explicitly deactivate the currently active DPVM database.
