Zoning a Fabric

The Edit Zoning dialog has a Zone Sets tree on the left and a Port/Device (or members) tree on the right. Both trees use display conventions similar to the fabric tree for expanding and contracting zone sets, zones, and ports. An expanded port shows the port Fibre Channel address; an expanded address shows the port World Wide Name. You can select zone sets, zones, and ports in the following ways:

„Click a zone, zone set, or port icon.

„Right-click to select a zone set or zone, and open the corresponding popup menu.

„Hold down the Shift key while clicking several consecutive icons.

„Hold down the Control key while clicking several non-consecutive icons.

Using tool bar buttons, popup menus, or a drag-and-drop method, you can create and manage zone sets and zones in the zoning database. Table 3-4describes the zoning tool bar operations.

Click the Error Check button to have SANsurfer Switch Manager check for zoning conflicts, such as empty zones, aliases, or zone sets, and ACL zones with non-domain ID/port number membership. Click the Save Zoning button to implement the changes. Click the Close button to close the Error Check dialog. On the Edit Zoning dialog, click the Close button to close the Edit Zoning dialog.
