Detailed Steps

You can commit changes for a specified feature by setting CFS &gt; Config Action to <b class="cBold">commit</b> for that 
feature.

</p>
<a name="wp1526727"> </a><p class="pBody">
To commit changes for CFS-enabled features, follow these steps:

</p>
<div class="pSmartList1"><ol type="1" class="pSmartList1">
<a name="wp1526728"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">Choose the feature you want to enable CFS for. For example, choose <b style="font-weight: bold" class="cBold">Switch</b><span style="font-weight: bold"> &gt; </span><b style="font-weight: bold" class="cBold">Clock &gt; NTP</b><b style="font-weight: normal" class="cBold">.
</b></li>
<a name="wp1526729"> </a><p class="pListBodyLevel1">
The Information pane shows that feature with a CFS tab. 

</p>
<a name="wp1526730"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">Click the <b class="cBold">CFS </b>tab to display the CFS state for each switch in the fabric for that feature.
</li>
<a name="wp1526731"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">In the <span style="font-weight: bold">Feature</span> tab, click the NTP <span style="font-weight: bold">General</span> tab and change any configuration. Click the <b class="cBold">Apply Changes</b> 
icon to apply the configuration to the local switch. The change remains at the pending database at the 
local switch until further CFS commit is applied.
</li>
<a name="wp1526732"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">Click<b class="cBold"> Pending Differences </b>to check the configuration of this feature on this switch as compared to other 
switches in the fabric or VSAN that have CFS enabled for this feature.
</li>
<a name="wp1526733"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">Click the <span style="font-weight: bold">CFS</span> tab, right-click the value in the Config Action column<span style="font-weight: bold"> o</span>f the master switch that is selected 
and select an option from the drop-down menu. (commit, clear lock, abort). For example, right-click the 
value in the Config Action column and select <span style="font-weight: bold">commit</span> to commit the CFS pending changes for that 
feature and distribute the changes through CFS.

DCNM-SAN retrieves the status of the CFS change and updates the Last Command and Last Result

<a name="wp1526738"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">In the <span style="font-weight: bold">Feature</span> tab, click the NTP <span style="font-weight: bold">General</span> tab and change any configuration. Click the <b class="cBold">Apply Changes</b>
