Port zone conflicts
Fabric Manager identifies ports that cannot communicate with each other due to zone conflicts.
Zone conflicts are identified as one of the following kinds:
• Port zone configurations: If two ports are not defined in the same zone, they cannot
communicate with each other. Fabric Manager can analyze port communication conflicts
based on only on zones defined by port name (not WWN).
• Blocked port communication: You can block ports from communicating with each other using
the block feature in the Edit FICON CUP Port Connectivity Configuration dialog box. By clicking
a combination of ports in the graph, you can block the port connectivity.
NOTE
The Analyze Zone Conflicts feature supports only switches running Fabric OS v4.4.0 or later.
You cannot use the Analyze Zone Conflicts feature in an Admin Domain-aware fabric.
