What's your goal to configure?

Are you connecting it to an existing fabric? If yes, then you will have to make sure that the fabric ID for new switch is different than others.
(to change Fabric ID, first disable the switch with "switchdisable" command and then run "configure" command, hit enter to accept default for most of the options and say YES for the fabric parameters and when asked the ID, type in the number.)

You will have to plan the zoning configuration. I will suggest you to read the OS Command line reference manual or for a quick reference look help for "zonecreate" command.
