Creating Zone Sets and Adding Member Zones
To create a zone set to include several zones, perform this task:
Tip You do not have to copy the running configuration to the startup configuration to store the active zone
set. However, you need to copy the running configuration to the startup configuration to explicitly store
full zone sets.
Command Purpose
Step 1
switch# configuration terminal
Enters configuration mode.
Step 2
switch(config)# zoneset name
zoneset-name vsan vsan-id
Configures a zone set called Zoneset1.
Tip To activate a zone set, you must first create the
zone and a zone set.
Step 3
switch(config-zoneset)# member name
Adds Zone1 as a member of the specified zone set
(Zoneset1).
Tip If the specified zone name was not previously
configured, this command will return a “zone
not present” error
message:
Step 4
switch(config-zoneset)# zone name
zone-name
Adds a zone to the specified zone set.
Tip Execute this step only if you need to create a
zone from a zone set prompt.
Step 5
switch(config-zoneset-zone)# member fcid
fcid
Adds a new member to the new zone.
Tip Execute this step only if you need to add a
member to a zone from a zone set prompt.
