Adding Zone Members

You can zone a port/device by switch domain ID and port number, device port Fibre Channel address, or the device port WWN. Adding a port/device to a zone affects every zone set in which that zone is a member. To add ports/devices to a zone, do the following:

1.Open the Zoning menu, and select Edit Zoning to open the Edit Zoning dialog.

2.Choose one of the following methods to add the port/device:

„Select a port/device in the Port/Device tree, and drag it into the zone. To select multiple ports/devices, press and hold the Control key while selecting.

„Select a port/device in the Port/Device tree. To select multiple ports/devices, press the Control key while selecting. Select a zone set in the left pane. Open the Edit menu and select Add Members.

„Select a port/device in the Port/Device tree. To select multiple ports/devices, press the Control key while selecting. Select a zone set in the left pane. Click the Insert button.

If the port/device you want to add is not in the Port/Device tree, you can add it by doing the following:

a.Right click the selected zone.

b.Open the Edit menu and select Create Members.

c.Choose the WWN, Domain/Port, or First Port Address radio button.

d.Enter the hexadecimal value for the port/device according to the radio button selection: 16 digits for a WWN member, 4 digits for a Domain/ Port member (DDPP), or a 6-digit Fibre Channel Address for a First Port Address member (DDPPAA) where D=domain ID, P=port number, and A=ALPA.

3.Click the OK button to add the member and save the change.

Note: Domain ID conflicts can result in automatic reassignment of switch domain IDs. These reassignments are not reflected in zones that use domain ID/port number pair to define their membership. Be sure to reconfigure zones that are affected by a domain ID change.
