Changing Mode Settings
When a device alias mode is changed from basic mode to enhanced mode, the corresponding applications are informed about the change. The applications then start accepting the device alias-based configuration in the native format.

 
Note: Because the device alias was previously running in the basic mode, the applications do not have any prior native device alias configuration.
 

The applications check for an existing device alias configuration in the native format. If the device alias is in the native format, the applications reject the request, and the device alias mode cannot be changed to basic.

All the native device alias configurations (both on local and remote switches) must be explicitly removed, or all the device alias members must be replaced with the corresponding World Wide Port Names (WWPN) before changing the mode back to basic.
