11 Zone merging TABLE 55 Zone merging scenarios: Defined and effective configurations (Continued) Description Switch A Switch B Expected results Switch A and Switch B have different defined: cfg2 defined configurations. Switch B has an zone2: ali3; ali4 effective configuration. effective: none Switch A does not have a defined configuration. Switch B has a defined configuration and an effective configuration, but the effective configuration is different from the defined configuration. defined: none effective: none defined: cfg1 zone1: ali1; ali2 effective: cfg1 defined: cfg1 zone1: ali1; ali2 effective: cfg1 zone1: ali1; ali2 zone2: ali3, ali4 Clean merge. The new configuration will be a composite of the two, with cfg1 as the effective configuration. Clean merge. Switch A absorbs the defined configuration from the fabric, with cfg1 as the effective configuration. In this case, however, the effective configurations for Switch A and Switch B are different. You should issue a cfgenable from the switch with the proper effective configuration. TABLE 56 Zone merging scenarios: Different content Description Switch A Effective configuration mismatch.
