Description Configures the zoning database. The changes you make with this command are not retained when
you reset or power-cycle the switch unless you save them using the config save command.
Authority Admin session and a Config Edit session
Syntax
set config zoning
Initiates an editing session in which to change the zoning database configuration. The system
displays each parameter one line at a time and prompts you for a value. For each parameter, enter
a new value or press Enter to accept the current value shown in brackets. Table 38 describes the
zoning configuration parameters.
Table 38 Zoning configuration parameters
Parameter Description
MergeAutoSave Enables (True) or disables (False) the saving of changes to active zone
set in the switch’s non-volatile zoning database.The default is True.
Disabling the MergeAutoSave parameter can be useful for preventing the
propagation of zoning information when experimenting with different
zoning schemes. However, leaving the MergeAutoSave parameter
disabled can disrupt device configurations should a switch have to be reset.
For this reason, the MergeAutoSave parameter should be enabled in a
production environment.
DefaultZone Enables (Allow) or disables (Deny) communication among ports/devices
that are not defined in the active zone set. The default is Allow.
DiscardInactive Enables (True) or disables (False) the discarding of all inactive zone sets
from that zoning database. Inactive zone sets are all zone sets except the
active zone set. The default is False.
Examples The following is an example of the set config zoning command.
SN6000 FC Switch #> admin start
SN6000 FC Switch (admin) #> config edit
The config named default is being edited.
SN6000 FC Switch (admin-config) #> set config zoning
A list of attributes with formatting and current values will follow.
Enter a new value or simply press the ENTER key to accept the current value.
If you wish to terminate this process before reaching the end of the list
press 'q' or 'Q' and the ENTER key to do so.
MergeAutoSave (True / False) [True ]
DefaultZone (Allow / Deny) [Allow ]
DiscardInactive (True / False) [False]
Finished configuring attributes.
This configuration must be saved (see config save command) and
activated (see config activate command) before it can take effect.
To discard this configuration use the config cancel command.
