Note Both FC IDs in this setup have the same area 00 assignment.
Step 2 Expand Switches > Interfaces and then select FC Physical from the Physical Attributes pane.
Step 3 Set the Status Admin drop-down menu to down for the interface that the HBA is connected to.
This shuts down the HBA interface in the MDS switch.
Step 4 Expand Fabricxx > VSANxx and then select Domain Manager.
Step 5 Click the Persistent Setup tab in the Information pane to verify that the FC ID feature is enabled (see
Figure 25-12).

If this feature is disabled, continue with this procedure to enable persistent FC ID.
If this feature is already enabled, skip to Step 7.
Step 6 Check the Enable check box to enable the persistent FC ID feature in the Cisco MDS switch (see
Figure 25-13).
Step 7 Select the Persistent FcIds tab and assign a new FC ID with a different area allocation in the FcId field.
In this example, we replace 00 with ee (see Figure 25-13).
