Enable or Disable the Global Policy for Disruptive Load Balancing
Disruptive load balancing allows you to review the load on all the external interfaces and balance the
load disruptively. Disruptive load balancing is done by moving the servers using heavily loaded external
interfaces, to the external interfaces running with fewer loads.
To enable disruptive load balancing using Fabric Manager, perform the following tasks:
Step 1 Choose Physical Attributes > Switches > N_Port Virtualizer (NPV) as shown in Figure 21-8.
Step 2 Click the Load Balance tab.
Step 3 Check the Enable checkbox to enable disruptive load balancing on the switch.
