viewFibreChannel CLI command

Use the viewFibreChannel command to show the Fibre Channel settings for both ports in each drive. The information is sorted by drive name. This command is useful to view the port configuration for the Fibre Channel switch and make sure that the configuration is compatible for the type of network in use.

Syntax

viewFibreChannel -ssl > <output-filename.csv>

Parameters

-ssl
Required if SSL (HTTPS) is enabled.
> <output-filename.csv>
(Optional.) Instead of sending the command output to your display, this option sends the output to a .csv (comma-separated variable) file that can be opened and saved in a spreadsheet. By default, the file is saved in the directory where the CLI jar file is stored. To save the file in a different directory, specify the path to that directory.

Example command

viewFibreChannel
