Zone configurations

Deleting a zone configuration
1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
2. Enter the cfgDelete command, using the following syntax:
cfgdelete "cfgname"
3. Enter the cfgSave command to save the change to the defined configuration.
The cfgSave command ends and commits the current zoning transaction buffer to nonvolatile
memory. If a transaction is open on a different switch in the fabric when this command is run,
the transaction on the other switch is automatically aborted. A message displays on the other
switches to indicate that the transaction was aborted.
Example
switch:admin> cfgdelete "testcfg"
switch:admin> cfgsave
You are about to save the Defined zoning configuration. This
action will only save the changes on the Defined configuration.
Any changes made on the Effective configuration will not
take effect until it is re-enabled. Until the Effective
configuration is re-enabled, merging new switches into the
fabric is not recommended and may cause unpredictable
results with the potential of mismatched Effective Zoning
configurations.
Do you want to save Defined zoning configuration only? (yes, y, no, n): [no] y
Clearing changes to a configuration
• Enter the cfgTransAbort command.
When this command is executed, all changes since the last save operation (performed with the
cfgSave, cfgEnable, or cfgDisable command) are cleared.
Example
In the following example, assume that the removal of a member from zone1 was done in error:
switch:admin> zoneremove "zone1","3,5"
switch:admin> cfgtransabort
Viewing all zone configuration information
If you do not specify an operand when executing the cfgShow command to view zone
configurations, then all zone configuration information (both defined and effective) displays. If
there is an outstanding transaction, then the newly edited zone configuration that has not yet been
saved is displayed. If there are no outstanding transactions, then the committed zone configuration
displays.
1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
2. Enter the cfgShow command with no operands.
