Command History

Usage Guidelines The SN 5428-2 Storage Router and each switch in the fabric maintains its own zoning database

containing one or more zone sets. You must activate a zone set to apply its zoning definitions to the Fibre

Channel (FC) fabric. When you activate a zone set, zone sets of the same name from all SN 5428-2s and

switches in the fabric are compiled and then the merged active zone set is redistributed to every

SN 5428-2 and switch in the fabric. This means that all switches and SN 5428-2s in the fabric have

identical active zone sets.

Only one zone set can be active at a time. You must explicitly deactivate an active zone set to allow

another zone set to be activated.

Caution If the storage router is connected to the FC switched fabric, all zoning changes (including activating a

zone set) are immediately propagated to other SN 5428-2 Storage Routers and switches in the fabric.

See Chapter 5, “Configuring Fibre Channel Interfaces,” for more information about FC fabric zoning.

Examples The following example activates the zone set named foo:

[SN5428-2A]# zoneset foo enable

name The name of the zone set being activated.
