| Description | This table lists all the virtual devices configured
on this device.
The successful creation of a row in this table,
through the use of the cFCSDMVdRowStatus object,
followed by the 'Config Commit' will also cause
the creation of rows in other tables. Specifically:
- The Creation of Device Alias: An entry in the
'cfdaConfigTable' of CISCO-FC-DEVICE-ALIAS-MIB
gets created by the agent with the value of the
cFcSdvVdName as the instance identifier value of
cfdaConfigDeviceAlias, 'pwwn' as the value of
cfdaConfigDeviceType and the value of cFcSdvVdPwwn
as the value of cfdaConfigDeviceId. An attempt
to create an already existing Device Alias entry
mapping to different Real Device would fail and
hence results in failure to add Virtual Device
entry in this table. In general, any failure in
Device Alias creation/deletion will have
corresponding effect of Virtual Device creation
/deletion respectively.
Similarly the deletion of a row in this table causes
deletion of corresponding rows in other tables.
Specifically:
- An entry in the 'cfdaConfigTable' of
CISCO-FC-DEVICE-ALIAS-MIB that corresponding to
the value of cFcSdvVdName is deleted.
Once a Virtual Device gets created successfully,
such a device is available for zone configuration.
The Virtual Device added as Device Alias can be
used to create the zones and zoneSets using
CISCO-ZS-MIB. The Device Alias is identified as
the 'deviceAlias' type of ZoneMemberType in all
occurrences of usage of ZoneMemberType in the
zoning tables. |
