HP suggests that you use Table 18, the zoning input form, to capture and track the required

device and command information. The form supports two paths, two switches, and a

maximum of 16 entries per switch. Copy and use a separate form to track information for each

zone (such as Green Zone_Top, Blue Zone_Top, Red Zone_Top, and so on). Organize alias

name, function, and site data by either World Wide ID (WWID) number or Port ID number.
