Zone Merge Failure Chapter 14 Troubleshooting Zones and Zone Sets Send documentation comments to [email protected] Resolving a Link Isolation Because of a Failed Zone Merge Using the CLI The following CLI commands are used to resolve a failed zone merge: • zoneset import vsan-id • zoneset export vsan-id To resolve a link isolation because of a failed zone merge using the CLI, follow these steps: Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Use the show interface command to confirm that the port is isolated because of a zone merge failure. switch# show interface fc2/14 fc2/14 is down (Isolation due to zone merge failure) Hardware is Fibre Channel, WWN is 20:4e:00:05:30:00:63:9e vsan is 1 Beacon is turned off 40 frames input, 1056 bytes, 0 discards 0 runts, 0 jabber, 0 too long, 0 too short 0 input errors, 0 CRC, 3 invalid transmission words 0 address id, 0 delimiter 0 EOF abort, 0 fragmented, 0 unknown class 79 frames output, 1234 bytes, 16777216 discards Received 23 OLS, 14 LRR, 13 NOS, 39 loop inits Transmitted 50 OLS, 16 LRR, 21 NOS, 25 loop inits An E port is segmented (isolation due to zone merge failure) if the following conditions are true: • The active zone sets on the two switches differ from each other in terms of zone membership (provided there are zones at either side with identical names). • The active zone set on both switches contain a zone with the same name but with different zone members. Verify the zoning information, using the following commands on each switch: • show zone vsan vsan-id • show zoneset vsan vsan-id You can use two different approaches to resolve a zone merge failure by overwriting the zoning configuration of one switch with the other switch's configuration. This can be done with either of the following commands: • zoneset import interface interface-number vsan vsan-id • zoneset export interface interface-number vsan vsan-id The import option of the command overwrites the local switch's active zone set with that of the remote switch. The export option overwrites the remote switch's active zone set with the local switch's active zone set. 14-16 Cisco MDS 9000 Family Troubleshooting Guide, Release 3.x OL-9285-05
