CFS Example Using Device Manager

</h1>
<a name="wp1527579"> </a><h2 class="pHeading2">
Restrictions
</h2>
<a name="wp1527580"> </a><p class="pBody">
When using CFS with features such as DPVM and device alias, you must select <b class="cBold">commit</b> at the end of 
each configuration. If the session is locked, you must exit the feature by selecting <b class="cBold">abort</b>.

</p>
<a name="wp1527581"> </a><h2 class="pHeading2">
Detailed Steps
</h2>
<a name="wp1527582"> </a><p class="pBody">
This procedure is an example of what you see when you use Device Manager to configure a feature that 
uses CFS. For specific procedures for features that use CFS, refer to that feature’s documentation.

</p>
<a name="wp1527583"> </a><p class="pBody">
To configure a feature that uses CFS, follow these steps:

</p>
<div class="pSmartList1"><ol type="1" class="pSmartList1">
<a name="wp1527584"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">Open the dialog box for any CFS-capable feature. Device Manager checks to see whether CFS is 
enabled. It also checks to see if there is a lock on the feature by checking for at least one entry in the 
Owner table. If CFS is enabled and there is a lock, Device Manager sets the status to “pending” for that 
feature. You see a dialog box displaying the lock information.
</li>
<a name="wp1527585"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">Click <b class="cBold">Continue </b>or <b class="cBold">Cancel </b>when prompted. If you continue, Device Manager remembers the CFS status.
</li>
<a name="wp1527586"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">Choose <b class="cBold">Admin &gt; CFS (Cisco Fabric Services) </b>to view the user name of the CFS lock holder. 
</li>
<a name="wp1527587"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">Click the locked feature and click<b class="cBold"> Details</b>. 
</li>
<a name="wp1527588"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">Click the <b class="cBold">Owners</b> tab and look in the <b class="cBold">UserName</b> column.
</li>
<a name="wp1527589"> </a><p class="pListNote1">
<strong>Note	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong> Device Manager does not monitor the status of the feature across the fabric until you click 
<b class="cBold">Refresh</b>. If a user on another CFS-enabled switch attempts to configure the same feature, they 
do not see the “pending” status. However, their configuration changes are rejected by your 
switch.

</p>
<a name="wp1527590"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">If CFS is enabled and there is no lock, Device Manager sets the status to running for that feature. 
</li>
<a name="wp1527591"> </a><p class="pListBodyLevel1">
You then see a dialog box for the feature. As soon as you perform a creation, deletion, or modification, 
Device Manager changes the status to pending and displays the updated information from the pending 
database.

</p>
<a name="wp1527592"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">View the CFS table for a feature. Device Manager only changes the status to running when <b class="cBold">commit</b>, 
<b class="cBold">clear,</b> or <b class="cBold">abort </b>is selected and applied. Device Manager will not change the status to “pending” if <b class="cBold">enable 
</b>is selected, because the pending status does not apply until the first actual change is made.
</li>
<a name="wp1527593"> </a><p class="pListBodyLevel1">
The <b class="cBold">Last Command</b> and <b class="cBold">Result</b> fields are blank if the last command is <b class="cBold">noOp</b>.
