Synopsis zoneadd "zoneName", "member[; member]"

Description Use this command to add one or more members to an existing zone.

reboots, save the configuration to nonvolatile memory with the cfgSave command. For the change

to become effective, enable the configuration with the cfgEnable command.

Notes The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may

be in place. Refer to chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS Commands" and Appendix A, "Command

When an FCS policy is enabled, this command can be issued only from the primary FCS switch.
