Creates a zone.
Syntax
zonecreate “zoneName”, “zoneMemberList”
Availability
Admin
Description
Use this command to create a new zone;
zoneName
is a name for this new zone and cannot
already be used for any other zone object;
zoneMemberList
is a semicolon-separated list
of one or more:
■
Physical fabric port numbers
■
World Wide Names
■
QuickLoop AL_PAs
■
Zone alias names
A zone name is a C-style name (a name beginning with a letter and followed by letters,
numerals, and underscore characters) up to 64 characters. Names are case sensitive; for
example,
Zone_1
and
zone_1
are different zones. Spaces are ignored.
The zone member list has at least one member (empty lists are not allowed). The members are
described by a semicolon-separated list of member definitions.
Physical fabric port numbers are specified as a pair of decimal numbers
s,p
, where
s
is the
switch number (domain ID) and
p
is the port number on that switch; for example,
2,12
specifies port 12 on switch number 2. When a zone member is specified by physical fabric port
number, all devices connected to that port are in the zone. If this port is an arbitrated loop, all
devices on the loop are in the zone.
World Wide Names are specified as eight hexadecimal pairs separated by colons: for example,
10:00:00:60:69:00:00:8a
. Zoning has no knowledge of the fields within a World
Wide Name; the eight bytes are simply compared with the node and port names presented by a
device in a login frame (FLOGI or PLOGI). When a zone member is specified by node name,
all ports on that device are in the zone. When a zone member is specified by port name, only
that single device port is in the zone.
QuickLoop AL_PAs are specified as a QuickLoop name (referred to as a qloop name by
zoning), followed by a list of AL_PAs: for example,
qloop1[01,02]
. QuickLoop names
have the same format as zone names and are created with the
qloopcreate
command to
define a switch or pair of switches that form the QuickLoop.
