Port Swapping
The FICON port-swapping feature is only provided for maintenance purposes.
The FICON port-swapping feature causes all configurations associated with old-port-number and new
port-number to be swapped, including VSAN configurations.
Cisco MDS switches allow port swapping for nonexistent ports as follows:
• Only FICON-specific configurations (prohibit, block, and port address mapping) are swapped.
• No other system configuration is swapped.
• All other system configurations are only maintained for existing ports.
