where: pattern mode A POSIX-style regular expression used to match zone names Specify 0 to display the contents of the transaction buffer (the contents of the current transaction), or specify 1 to display the contents of the nonvolatile memory. The default value is 0. The following example shows all zones beginning with A, B, or C: switch:admin> zoneshow "[A-C]*" zone: Blue_zone 1,1; array1; 1,2; array2 zone: Bobs_zone 4,5; 4,6; 4,7; 4,8; 4,9 If no parameters are specified, the entire zone database (both the defined and effective configuration) is displayed. Validating a zone 1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin. 2. Enter the cfgShow command to view the zone configuration objects you want to validate. switch:admin> cfgShow Defined configuration: cfg: USA_cfg Purple_zone; White_zone; Blue_zone zone: Blue_zone 1,1; array1; 1,2; array2 zone: Purple_zone 1,0; loop1 zone: White_zone 1,3; 1,4 alias: array1 21:00:00:20:37:0c:76:8c; 21:00:00:20:37:0c:71:02 alias: array2 21:00:00:20:37:0c:76:22; 21:00:00:20:37:0c:76:28 alias: loop1 21:00:00:20:37:0c:76:85; 21:00:00:20:37:0c:71:df 3. Enter the zone --validate command to list all zone members that are not part of the current zone enforcement table. Note that zone configuration names are case-sensitive; blank spaces are ignored. switch:admin> zone --validate "White_zone" 4. Enter the following command to validate all zones in the zone database in the defined configuration. switch:admin> sw5:root> zone --validate -m 1 Defined configuration: cfg: cfg1 zone1 cfg: cfg2 zone1; zone2 zone: zone1 1,1; ali1 zone: zone2 1,1; ali2 alias: ali1 10:00:00:05:1e:35:81:7f*; 10:00:00:05:1e:35:81:7d* alias: ali2 10:00:00:05:1e:35:81:09*; 10:00:00:05:1e:35:81:88* Invalid configuration * - Member does not exist The mode flag -m can be used to specify the zone database location. Supported mode flag values are: • 0 - zone database from the current transaction buffer • 1 - zone database stored from the persistent storage • 2 - currently effective zone database. If no mode options are given, the validated output of all three buffers is shown. If the -f option is specified, all the zone members that are not enforceable would be expunged in the transaction buffer. This pruning operation always happens on the transaction and defined buffers.
