Zoning Version 3.1.x/4.1.x User Guide
Resolving Zone Conflicts
Zone conflicts can be resolved by using
configupload
and performing a cut
and paste operation so the config info matches in both fabrics being merged.
Zone conflicts can also be resolved by performing a
cfgClear
followed by a
cfgDisable
on the segmented fabric that is incorrectly configured. Then do a
portDisable/portEnable
on one of the ISL ports that connects the fabrics.
This will cause a merge that will make the fabric consistent with the good
configuration. Be careful in using the
cfgClear
command; this command can
inadvertently delete the zone configuration in the fabric.
