Cmdlet: Set-NcFcAdapterType


NAME
Set-NcFcAdapterType

SYNOPSIS
Set the adapter driver and/or configuration state.

SYNTAX
Set-NcFcAdapterType [[-Node] <String>] [[-Adapter] <String>] [[-Type] <Strin
g>] [-Controller <NcController[]>] [<CommonParameters>]


DESCRIPTION
Sets the adapter driver and/or configuration state. Each configurable adapt
er has an adapter type and adapter state. The adapter type indicates which
driver is attached to the adapter, the adapter state indicates what the conf
iguration state of the adapter is. The fc type is used to modify both the ad
apter type and the adapter state. After setting the adapter fc type a filer
reboot is sometimes needed to make the change effective. Use Get-NcFcAdapte
r to determine if a filer reboot is needed.


PARAMETERS
-Node <String>
The storage system name the command will be executed on.

-Controller <NcController[]>
A clustered Data ONTAP controller to receive this cmdlet, as embodied by
an NcController object. This parameter is returned by the Connect-NcCo
ntroller cmdlet. If not specified, the value in the global variable Cur
rentNcController is used. In the latter case, if CurrentNcController co
ntains a collection of NcController objects, this cmdlet is invoked on e
ach controller in succession.
