Note
Adding an IVR-Enabled Switch to an Existing IVR Topology
Before adding an IVR-enabled switch to an existing fabric with manual IVR topology and CFS
distribution enabled (see the
you must add an entry to the IVR topology for the new switch and activate the new IVR topology.
To add the IVR-enabled switch to the existing IVR topology on the IVR-enabled switch where you
update the IVR configuration, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch# config t
switch(config)#
Step 1
mds(config)# ivr vsan-topology database
mds(config-ivr-topology-db)#
Step 2
