show fcns database : Gives VASN number: FCID(8bit): Vendor : PWWN details of a
ll ports in the fabric.- Name server database :
The name server functionality maintains a database containing the attributes for
all hosts and storage devices in each VSAN.The name server stores name entries
for all hosts in the FCNS database.
show flogi database : Gives interface ,VSAN,fCID,PORT WWN,node wwn of that parti
cular switch
In a Fibre Channel fabric, each host or disk requires an FC ID. Use the show flo
gi command to verify if a storage device is displayed in the Fabric login (FLOGI
). If the required device is displayed in the FLOGI table, the fabric login is s
uccessful.
FDMI::
show fdmi database / show fdmi database detail :
Cisco MDS 9000 Family switches provide support for the Fabric-Device Management
Interface (FDMI) functionality.FDMI enables management of devices such as Fibre
Channel .Host Bus Adapters (HBAs) through in-band communications.Using the FDMI
functionality, the SAN-OS software can extract the following management informat
ion about attached HBAs and host operating systems without installing proprietar
y host agents:
Manufacturer, model, and serial number
Node name and node symbolic name
Hardware, driver, and firmware versions
Host operating system (OS) name and version number

RSCN ::
The Registered State Change Notification (RSCN) is a Fibre Channel service that
informs hosts about changes in the fabric. Hosts can receive this information by
registering with the fabric controller (through SCR). These notifications provi
de a timely indication of one or more of the following events:
Disks joining or leaving the fabric.
A name server registration change.
A new zone enforcement.
IP address change.
Any other similar event that affects the operation of the host.

FCS::
The Fabric Configuration Server (FCS) provides discovery of topology attributes
and maintains a repository of configuration information of fabric elements. A ma
nagement application is usually connected to the FCS on the switch through an N
port. The FCS views the entire fabric
