Zone configuration and zoning database management

Searching for zone members
You can search zone member selection lists for specified strings of text. If you know some
identifying information about a possible member of a zoning entity, you can select the tab and view
for that entity and then search through its member selection list using the Search for Zone Member
option. If the target entity is an alias or zone, then the search domain includes elements like switch
names and domain numbers, port names and “domain, port” addresses, device WWNs and
manufacturer names, and also any aliases that might already have been defined. If the target
entity is a configuration, then zones are also included, along with the elements they contain.
The search starts from the top of the list, and when the target element is found, it is also selected
in the Member Selection List so it can be added or its parent or children can be found. By default,
the Member Selection List is searched from beginning to end one time. If you select the
wraparound option, the search continues to loop from the beginning to the end of the Member
Selection List.
To search for zone members, perform the following steps.
1. Open the Zone Admin window as described in “Opening the Zone Admin window” on page 118.
2. Select Edit > Search Member.
3. Enter the zone member name in the Member Name field.
Optional: Narrow the search by selecting one or more of the check boxes, such as Match Case.
4. Click Next to begin the zone member search.
Clearing the zoning database
Use the following procedure to disable the active zoning configuration, if one exists, and delete the
entire zoning database. You must disable any active configuration before you can delete the zoning
database.
ATTENTION
This action not only disables zoning on the fabric, but also deletes the entire zoning database. This
results in all devices being able to communicate with each other.
To clear the zone database, perform the following steps.
1. Open the Zone Admin window as described in “Opening the Zone Admin window” on page 118.
2. Select Actions > Clear All.
The Disable Config wizard displays.
3. Click Yes to do all of the following in the wizard:
• Disable the current configuration.
• Clear the entire contents of the current Web Tools Zone Admin buffer.
• Delete the entire persistent contents of the fabric zoning database.
The wizard allows you to define one and only one name for each device port (WWN). Devices
with one or more aliases are considered already named and are not displayed.
