Telnet Commands
switchDisable
Disable the switch.
Syntax
switchDisable
Availability
Admin 
Description
Use this command to disable the switch. All Fibre Channel ports are 
taken off line; if the switch was part of a fabric, the remaining 
switches reconfigure.
The switch must be disabled before making configuration changes 
(using 
configure
 or 
configDefault
) or before running many of the 
diagnostic tests. All commands that require the switch to be disabled 
send an error if invoked while the switch is enabled.
The switch does not need to be disabled before rebooting or 
powering off.
As each port is disabled, the front-panel LED changes to a slow 
flashing yellow.
Operands
None
Example
To disable the switch:
switch:admin> switchDisable
