Setting up TI zones over FCR (sample procedure)
13
• “WARNING” indicates that there is not currently a problem, given the current set of online
devices and reachable domains, but given the activated TI zone configuration, parallel
exclusive paths between a shared device and a remote domain have been detected, which
might cause a problem for devices that join the fabric later.
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account with admin permissions.
2. Enter the zone
--showTIerrors command.
zone --showTIerrors
Here is an example report that would be generated for the illegal configuration shown in Figure 40
on page 385.
switch:admin> zone --showTIerrors
My Domain: 3
Error type: ERROR
Affected Remote Domain: 1
Affected Local Port: 8
Affected TI Zones: etiz1, etiz2
Affected Remote Ports: 1, 2, 3, 4
Setting up TI zones over FCR (sample procedure)
The following example shows how to set up TI zones over FCR to provide a dedicated path shown in
Figure 52. In this example, three TI zones are created: one in each of the edge fabrics and one in
the backbone fabric. The combination of these three TI zones creates a dedicated path for traffic
between Host 1 in edge fabric 1 and Targets 1 and 2 in edge fabric 2.
Host 1 has port WWN 10:00:00:00:00:08:00:00
Target 1 has port WWN 10:00:00:00:00:02:00:00
Target 2 has port WWN 10:00:00:00:00:03:00:00
