44 Fabric OS commands
Removes a member from a zone alias.
Synopsis
aliremove “aliName“, “member; member“
Availability
admin
NOTE: This command requires an HP Advanced Zoning license.
Description
Use this command to remove one or more members from an existing zone alias.
If all members are removed, the zone alias is deleted.
This command changes the defined configuration. For the change to be preserved across switch reboots, it
must be saved to flash memory using the cfgSave command. For the change to become effective, an
appropriate zone configuration must be enabled using the cfgEnable command.
NOTE: When security is enabled, this command can be issued only from the primary FCS switch.
Operands
This command has the following operands:
aliRemove
“aliName“ Specify the name of the zone alias to have members removed, in
quotation marks. This operand is required.
“member“ Specify a member or list of members to be removed from the
alias, in quotation marks, separated by semicolons. An alias
member can be specified by one or more of the following
methods:
• A switch domain and port area number pair. View the area
numbers for ports using the switchShow command.
• WWN
• QuickLoop AL_PAs
This operand is required. The member list is located by an exact
string match; therefore, it is important to maintain the order
when removing multiple members. For example, if a zone alias
contains “1,2; 1,3; 1,4”, then removing“1,3; 1,4” succeeds but
removing “1,4; 1,3” fails.
