HP StorageWorks Fabric OS 5.3.x administrator guide (5697-0244, November 2009)

248 Using the FC-FC routing service
NOTE: This feature is supported only in a fabric with Fabric OS 5.3.0 and later Fibre Channel routers in
the backbone.
The fcrlsanmatrix command is local to a Fibre Channel router and its configuration data will be saved
locally. The configuration is not distributed automatically to other Fibre Channel routers on the backbone.
The fcrlsanmatrix command is used to configure each of the FCRs in the backbone that support this
feature.
For example, if edge fabrics with IDs 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 are online, the default behavior is that every edge
fabric allows access to each other. If later on, FIDs 1 and 2 are specified to have exclusive access using the
command fcrlsanmatrix, then:
• FID 1 can access only FID 2
• FID 2 can access only FID 1
• FIDs 3, 4 and 5 can access each other but cannot access FIDs 1 or 2
The FIDs entered do not need to be online when setting up the LSAN fabric matrix. The LSAN fabric matrix
information is saved per Fibre Channel router and not distributed to other FCRs automatically. The best
practice is to enter the same information for all the Fibre Channel routers in the backbone that supports this
command.
The fcrlsanmatrix command is explained in detail below:
fcrlsanmatrix [--add FabricID1 FabricID2] [--remove FabricID1 FabricID2] [--apply]
[--cancel] [--display] [--fabricview] [--verify] [--quickmode]
CAUTION: The command fcrlsanmatrix --add 0 0 will erase the entire LSAN Zone Matrix
settings in the cache.
To set up LSAN zone binding
1. Log in to the switch as admin.
2. To add a pair, enter the command as follows:
FCR:Admin > fcrlsanmatrix --add <FabricID1> <FabricID2>
3. To apply the changes persistently, enter the command as follows:
FCR:Admin > fcrlsanmatrix --apply
To view the LSAN zones static and dynamic bindings
1. Log on to the switch as admin.
2. Enter the command as follows:
command with no option Displays the matrix information that is saved in the persistent memory.
FabricID1 FabricID2 Specifies the fabric ID of the two edge fabrics that will be paired.
--add Adds the pair of FIDs to the cache.
--remove Removes the pair of FIDs from the cache.
--apply Applies the changes from the cache to persistent memory.
--cancel Clears the information from the cache and put it back to the saved
value.
--display Displays the information that is saved in the cache.
--fabricview Displays the static and default and dynamic binding of the backbone
to show which edge fabrics can access each other.
--verify Verifies if the information in the cache is valid and will not disrupt
existing import/export devices.
--quickmode Runs a quick mode to derive the LSAN Zone matrix from the current
import/export database.
