The feature configures a switch or director so that no frame data is stored after a power
off. Without Full Volatility, if the switch or director experiences a fault condition, a dump
of the embedded memor y space is captured into nonvolatile memory. This dump retains
the last 30 frames transmitted from and last four frames transmitted to the embedded port.
With Full Volatility installed, this dump does not occur when a fault condition occurs.
Although this limits the amount of diagnostic information available for potential problem
resolution, the vast majority of problems are typically resolved without the dump files.
Contact your sales representative to purchase a feature key for Full Volatility.

domain ID of the destination fabric element.
