Fabric Zoning 6 This chapter explains how to: ■ Zone fabrics ■ Use zoning features and dialog boxes Zoning Basics Note: Designing zoning can be a complex task, especially for multiswitch fabrics. Refer to HP’s professional services organization before configuring zoning. This section is designed to help you understand the following concepts so that you can more efficiently use HAFM features to configure and manage zones across a multiswitch fabric: ■ Benefits of zoning.
Fabric Zoning Controlling Access Across a Fabric The fabric zoning feature enables you to partition devices attached to managed Fibre Channel products into groups called zones. A zone contains devices that can access one another through port-to-port connections. Devices in the same zone can recognize and communicate with one another; devices in different zones cannot.
Fabric Zoning Figure 58 illustrates three zones established on a single managed product with four devices in each zone. Devices in each zone can communicate with and access devices only in their respective zones.
Fabric Zoning Figure 59 illustrates how zones can consist of ports and/or devices installed on ports in three managed products in a multiswitch fabric.
Fabric Zoning Controlling Access at the Switch A port binding feature is available on switches and directors that allows you to “bind” a specific switch or director port to the WWN of an attached device for exclusive communication. This WWN binding feature is available through the Configure Ports option in the Product Manager application’s Configure menu.
Fabric Zoning ■ The connection is bound to a storage port WWN. If the fiber optic cable is disconnected from the storage port, the server-to-storage connection is automatically reestablished when the port cable is reconnected. The connection is also automatically reestablished if the storage port is cabled through a different managed product port. Access can also be controlled at the storage device as an addition or enhancement to redundant array of independent disks (RAID) controller software.
Fabric Zoning Naming Conventions for Zones and Zone Sets The following naming conventions apply to zones and zone sets: ■ All names must be unique and may not differ by case only. For example, myzone and MyZone are both valid individually, but the are not considered to be unique. ■ The first character of a zone set name must be a letter (A-Z, a-z). ■ A zone set name cannot contain spaces. ■ Valid characters are a-a, A-A, 0-9, ^, -, _, and $. ■ A zone set name can have a maximum of 64 characters.
Fabric Zoning Using WWNs To identify a zone member by WWN, use the 16-digit WWN of the device. For example: 10:00:08:00:88:40:C0:D4 In the HAFM and Product Manager, the WWN is preceded with the switch or director manufacturer’s name. The WWN is assigned to the Fibre Channel interface or HBA installed in devices such as servers or storage devices. Although the device may also have a node WWN, this WWN is not used for zoning identification.
Fabric Zoning The advantage of identifying a zone member by port number is that if the HBA on an attached device fails, you do not have to identify the member with the WWN of the replacement HBA. A disadvantage of port zoning is that someone may rearrange cable connections to ports (because of port failures or other reasons) and inadvertently allow devices to communicate that should not have access to each other.
Fabric Zoning The following are some important points to remember about zone sets: ■ If no zone set is active, and the default zone is disabled, then no devices can communicate. ■ If you activate a zone set when there is already an active zone set, that set will replace the currently active zone set. ■ If you deactivate the current active zone set, then all devices connected in the fabric become members of the default zone.
Fabric Zoning Merging Zoned Fabrics Managed products are linked through ISLs to form multiswitch fabrics. In a multiswitch fabric, the active zoning configuration applies to the entire fabric. Any change to the configuration applies to all switches in the fabric. Configurations of Merged Zoned Fabrics When fabrics join through an ISL, adjacent managed products exchange active zone configurations and determine if the configurations are compatible and can merge.
Fabric Zoning Table 4: Merging Fabrics — Results for Zone Configurations Fabric A Fabric B Result Not zoned Not zoned Fabrics join successfully. The new fabric remains not zoned. Not zoned Zoned Fabrics join successfully and the active zone set will propagate across the fabric. Fabric A inherits zoning configuration from Fabric B. Zoned Not zoned Fabrics join successfully and the active zone set will propagate across the fabric. Fabric B inherits zoning configuration from Fabric A.
Fabric Zoning Configuring Zoning through the HAFM This section provides procedures for using the menu options available through the HAFM Fabrics tab to configure and manage zoning. For information on other menu options, refer to Chapter 3. To configure new zones and a zone set, then activate a new zone set for the fabric, follow these three steps: 1. Create zones. Follow steps under Configure Zones and Zone Sets on page 148 under “Configuring Zoning through the HAFM.” 2. Create a zone set.
Fabric Zoning Use this dialog box to perform major tasks for configuring zoning on the fabric: ■ Display zone sets, zones, and zone members in library ■ Configure zones by adding zone members (attached nodes) ■ Configure zone sets by adding zones ■ Clear zones ■ Delete zones and zone sets ■ Import and export zone sets ■ Display zone and zone set properties ■ Copy zones and zone sets ■ Find zone members in zones ■ Find zones in zone sets The following table lists the configuration limits
Fabric Zoning Menus The following menus and options are available in the Zoning Library dialog box. Page numbers are provided for procedures in using these options. Options under specific menus may only be enabled or perform different functions depending on whether the Zones or Zone Sets tab is selected.

Optional Features 8 This chapter provides detailed information on using, administering, and configuring optional HAFM features through HAFM applications. There are two types of features covered in this chapter: ■ “Keyed” features, requiring feature keys to be purchased and enabled through the Configure Feature Key dialog box in the product’s Product Manager application.
Optional Features Configuring the FICON Management Server Use this procedure to configure whether the host is the controlling manager. The optional FICON Management Server feature must be installed in order to perform this procedure. ■ Enable Management Server Click this check box to add a check mark and enable the management server. Click the check mark to remove it and disable this feature. ■ Switch Clock Alert Mode Click this check box to display a check mark and enable clock alert mode.
Optional Features — If Active=Saved is not enabled (no check mark), the IPL address configuration and the active configuration are not maintained as identical, and may be different configurations. If the feature is not enabled, you can modify the IPL configuration through the Configure Addresses “Active” dialog box. If the feature is enabled, the IPL file is locked to modification through the Configure Addresses - “Active” dialog box.
Optional Features Configuration Procedure To configure the FICON management server, use the following steps: 1. Choose Configure > Management Server from the Product Manager window. The Configure FICON Management Server dialog box displays (Figure 78). Figure 78: Configure FICON Management Server dialog box 2. Enable or disable the management server by clicking Enable Management Server check box. (To disable the management server, click the check box again to remove the check mark.) 3.
Optional Features Open Systems Management Server The Open System Management Server (OSMS) is a keyed feature that allows host control and inband management of the director or switch through a management application that resides on an open-systems interconnection (OSI) device. This device is attached to a director or switch port. The device communicates with the switch or director through Fibre Channel common transport (FC-CT) protocol.
Optional Features 3. Click the check box in the Host Control Prohibited field to display a check mark and to prohibit the host management program from changing configuration and connectivity parameters on the switch. In this case, the host program has read-only access to configuration and connectivity parameters. Clicking the check box when it contains a check mark removes the check mark and allows a host program to change configuration and connectivity parameters on the switch. 4.
Optional Features Fabric Binding This feature is managed through the Fabric Binding option, available through the Fabrics menu in HAFM when the Fabrics tab is selected. Using Fabric Binding, you can allow specific switches to attach to specific fabrics in the SAN. This provides security from accidental fabric merges and potential fabric disruption when fabrics become segmented because they cannot merge.
Optional Features Configuring Switch Binding Overview To configure Switch Binding, you must first activate the feature using the Switch Binding State Change dialog box while selecting the type of port where you want to restrict connection (connection policy). Possible selections are E_Ports, F_Ports, or all types.
Optional Features Enable/Disable Switch Binding Use the following procedure to enable and disable switch binding: 1. Choose the Configure > Switch Binding > Change State from the Product Manager window. The Switch Binding State Change dialog box displays (Figure 80). Figure 80: Switch Binding State Change dialog box 2.
Optional Features ■ Restrict All — Select if you want to restrict connections from specific devices to switch F_Ports and switches to switch E_Ports. Device and switch WWNs can be added to the Switch Membership List to allow connection and removed from the Membership List to prohibit connection. 4. Click Activate to enable the changes and close the dialog box. 5.
Optional Features 2. If nicknames are configured for WWNs through HAFM and you want these to display instead of WWNs in this dialog box, click Display Options. The Display Options dialog box displays. 3. Click Nickname, then click OK. 4. To prohibit connection to a switch port from a WWN currently in the Membership List, click the WWN or nickname in the Membership List, then click Remove. The WWN or nickname will move to the Node List panel.
Optional Features Enable/Disable and Online State Functions In order for Switch Binding to function, specific operating parameters and optional features must be enabled. Also, there are specific requirements for disabling these parameters and features when the director or switch is offline or online. Be aware of the following: ■ Switch Binding can be enabled or disabled whether the switch is offline or online. ■ Enabling Enterprise Fabric Mode automatically enables Switch Binding.
Optional Features Zoning with Switch Binding Enabled Note that SANtegrity has no effect on existing zoning configurations. However, note that if a device WWN is in a specific zone, but the WWN is not in the Switch Membership List, the device cannot log in to the director or switch port and cannot connect to other devices in the zone with Switch Binding enabled.
Optional Features Rerouting Delay Rerouting Delay is a parameter in the Configure Switch Parameters dialog box, available from the Configure menu in the Product Manager application. Rerouting Delay ensures that frames are delivered through the fabric in order to their destination.
Optional Features Insistent Domain Identification (ID) This is a parameter in the Configure Switch Parameters dialog box, available from Configure menu in the Product Manager application. Enabling this option sets the domain ID configured in the Preferred Domain ID field in the Configure Switch Parameters dialog box as the active domain identification when the fabric initializes.
Optional Features In particular, you do not need to manually configure ISLs into “trunk groups” of redundant links where data can be “off-loaded.” Candidate links for rerouting flow are identified and maintained automatically. This means that flow may be rerouted onto a link that goes to a different adjacent switch as long as that link is on the least cost/shortest path to the destination domain ID.
Optional Features 3. Set the Congestion Thresholds for ports as percentages of link bandwidths, in the range of 1% through 99%. These thresholds are used only when a port becomes an ISL. When the link’s traffic load becomes greater than this percentage, the link is seen as “congested” and traffic is rerouted (if possible) to an uncongested link. Note that rerouting may not be possible if there are no alternate links available or if alternate links are congested or have no available BB_Credit.
Optional Features ■ Back Pressure — Click this check box to display a check mark and enable this option. If enabled, a back pressure entry will be made to the Event Log and an SNMP trap will be generated if trap recipients are configured through the Configure SNMP dialog box. A back pressure event occurs when the percentage of time the ISL has no available BB_Credit exceeds the low BB_credit threshold. A separate event also occurs when the backpressure condition ends. 5. Set the Low BB_Credit Threshold.
Optional Features Pop-Up Menu Right click on columns in the Configuration Threshold table to display menu options that globally change values in the column cells. Use Algorithmic Threshold Right click in the column to display these options: ■ Set all to Default — Adds check marks to all check boxes in this column and sets all cells of Threshold % column to default values. ■ Clear All — Clears all check boxes in this column and restores values in cells of Threshold % column with previous values.
Optional Features 196 ■ Old Exit Port — The decimal exit port number on this switch that the flow used to get to the target domain. ■ New Exit Port — The decimal exit port number on this switch that the flow now uses to get to the target domain.
