If Default zoning policies are enabled, all cfgEnable/Disable commands and zoning changes must be run from a switch in the fabric running Fabric OS 5.1.0 or later. Fabric OS 5.1.1b 7

Zoning
Support for Default Zoning policies have been added to Fabric OS 5.1.0 or later.
Typically, when you issue the
cfgDisable
command in a large fabric with thousands
of devices, the name server indicates to all hosts that they can communicate with each
other. To ensure thatall devices in a fabric do not see each other during a
cfgDisable
operation, you can activate a Default Zone with policy set to “no access”. If Default
zoning policies are enabled, all
cfgEnable
/
Disable
commands and zoning changes
must be run from a switch in the fabric running Fabric OS 5.1.0 or later.
