zoneCreate

When creating a zone, you can combine different ways of specifying zone members. For example, a

zone defined with the following members: "2,12; 2,14; 10:00:00:60:69:00:00:8a" contains all devices

connected to switch 2, ports 12 and 14, and to the device with the world wide name

"10:00:00:60:69:00:00:8a" (either node name or port name), at the port in the fabric to which it is

connected.

EXAMPLES To create three zones using a combination of port numbers and zone aliases:

switch:admin> zonecreate "Purple_zone", "1,0"

switch:admin> zonecreate "Blue_zone", "1,1; array1; 1,2; array2"

switch:admin> zonecreate "Green_zone", "1,0; 1,2; array2"

To create zone with the specified zone alias and to include the members that matches a pattern:

switch:admin> zonecreate sloth, "b*; 10:00:00:00:01:1e:20:20"

switch:admin> cfgshow
