Fabric OS reference guide Zone alias names have the same format as zone names and are created with the alicreate command. The alias must resolve to a list of one or more physical fabric port numbers, World Wide Names, or QuickLoop AL_PAs. The types of zone members used to define a zone might be mixed. For example, a zone defined with the members 2,12; 2,14; 10:00:00:60:69:00:00:8a contains devices connected to switch 2, ports 12 and 14, and the device with a World Wide Name of 10:00:00:60:69:00:00:8a (either node name or port name), whichever port in the fabric to which it is connected. Note: This command changes the defined configuration (see cfgshow). For the change to become effective, an appropriate zone configuration must be enabled using the cfgenable command. For the change to be preserved across switch reboots, it must be saved to nonvolatile memory using the cfgsave command. When security is enabled, this command can be issued only from the primary FCS switch.

Fabric OS 3.x Document Addendum
Zone alias names have the same format as zone names and are created with the
alicreate
command. The alias must resolve to a list of one or more physical fabric port numbers, World
Wide Names, or QuickLoop AL_PAs.
The types of zone members used to define a zone might be mixed. For example, a zone
defined with the members
2,12; 2,14; 10:00:00:60:69:00:00:8a
contains
devices connected to switch 2, ports 12 and 14, and the device with a World Wide Name of
10:00:00:60:69:00:00:8a
(either node name or port name), whichever port in the
fabric to which it is connected.
Note:
This command changes the defined configuration (see
cfgshow
). For the change to become
effective, an appropriate zone configuration must be enabled using the
cfgenable
command.
For the change to be preserved across switch reboots, it must be saved to nonvolatile memory using
the
cfgsave
command.
When security is enabled, this command can be issued only from the primary FCS switch.
Operands
The following operands are required:
