To create a zoning commands text file for the remote fabric: 1. Open the faceplate display, and select Fabric > TR Mapping Manager. 2. Create a new TR mapping for an inter-fabric zone, if one does not exist. See "Mapping a new inter-fabric zone" (page 24) for more information. 3. In the TR Mapping Manager dialog (Figure 8), select an entry from the TR Mapping List window. 4. Select File > Generate Remote Zoning to open the Remote Fabric Zoning dialog (Figure 9). 5. If you made and saved changes in the TR Mapping Manager dialog, you can choose the type of zoning commands to view in the Suggested Remote Fabric Zoning Commands window. Choose one of the following options from Select Set of Zoning Commands to View: • The Comprehensive Zoning Commands for Initial TR Setup option to show the list of zoning commands to set up all the IFZs. • The Zoning Commands Only for Changes to TR Mappings option to show the list of zoning commands only for the changes you made during this session (after opening the TR Mapping Manager dialog). NOTE: The Remote Fabric Zoning dialog shows the Select Set of Zoning Commands to View option only if you made and saved changes in the TR Mapping Manager dialog. If you opened the Remote Fabric Zoning dialog after selecting File>Generate Remote Zoning, the Select Set of Zoning Commands to View option is not displayed, and the Suggested Remote Fabric Zoning Commands window displays the list of zoning commands to set up all the IFZs. 6. Choose one of the following options from the Remote Switch Type drop-down list to generate the corresponding zoning commands: • B-series-to connect remotely with B-series switches • C-series-to connect remotely with C-series switches 7. Enter the configuration name, which is used as the zone set name in the commands. This name must be the same as the zone set name on the remote fabric to which this zoning is applied. If necessary, you can save and edit the command file to correct the configuration name. The default configuration name is TRoutesCfg. 8. Select one of the following: • Clear the New Configuration option if the remote fabric has an active zone set. Executing the updated zoning commands on the remote fabric automatically adds the changes to the active zone set, if the specified configuration name matches the name of the active zone set. NOTE: If configuration name is not the name of the active zone set in the remote fabric, the commands attempts to replace the active zone set with a new zone set with the new name containing only the IFZs. This will not succeed unless you respond to CLI queries to accept activation of this new zone set. • Select the New Configuration option if the remote fabric does not have an active zone set. Executing the commands on the remote fabric automatically adds the commands (IFZs) to create and activate the zone set. The name of the created active zone set is the configuration name. 9. Click Export and select a path name (TXT file extension only) in the Save dialog. Selecting the same path name overwrites the first path name. 10.Click Save to save the zoning commands text file on your workstation. NOTE: The commands generated for C-series switches apply zoning to VSAN 1. If this is not the correct VSAN, you must edit the command file to specify the correct VSAN before executing the commands. . 26
