Removing members from a zone configuration
Use the following procedure to remove members from a zone configuration.
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account with admin permissions.
2. Enter the cfgRemove command, using the following syntax:
cfgremove "cfgname", "member[; member...]"
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> cfgremove "NEW_cfg", "purplezone"
switch:admin> cfgsave
WARNING!!!
The changes you are attempting to save will render the Effective configuration
and the Defined configuration inconsistent. The inconsistency will result in
different Effective Zoning configurations for switches in the fabric if a zone
merge or HA failover happens. To avoid inconsistency it is recommended to
commit the configurations using the 'cfgenable' command.

Enabling a zone configuration
The following procedure 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 procedure 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.
Use the following procedure to enable a zone configuration.
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account with admin permissions.
2. Enter the cfgenable command, using the following syntax:
cfgenable "cfgname"
3. Enter y at the prompt.
Example
switch:admin> cfgenable "USA_cfg"
You are about to enable a new zoning configuration.
This action will replace the old zoning configuration with the current
configuration selected. If the update includes changes to one or more traffic
isolation zones, the update may result in localized disruption to traffic on
ports associated with the traffic isolation zone changes.
Do you want to enable 'USA_cfg' configuration (yes, y, no, n): [no] y
zone config "USA_cfg" is in effect
