    1 INTRODUCING ZONING Zoning allows you to partition your Storage Area Network (SAN) into logical groupings of devices that can access each other. Using Zoning, you can arrange fabric-connected devices into logical groups, or zones, over the physical configuration of the fabric. Zones can be

    assigned to a zone, and are thus not active in the fabric if Zoning is enabled. No zone Figure 1. Fabric with Three Zones 12 Zoning User's Guide

    2 USING ZONING This chapter explains both the concept of zoning and how to use Zoning to partition a fabric into logical groupings of devices. Understanding Zoning A zone is a group of fabric-connected devices arranged into a specified grouping. Any device connected to a fabric can be included in
  • HP Surestore 6164 | Zoning User's Guide - Page 16
    and security can be ensured by the cooperating hosts. In addition to hard and soft zones, a third type of zone is available. 16 Zoning User's Guide

    Broadcast Zone Only one broadcast zone can exist within a fabric. This zone is named "broadcast" and is used to specify those nodes that are to receive broadcast traffic. This type of zone is hardware enforced; the switch controls data transfer to a port. Zone Enforcement When zoning is disabled,

    Using Zoning Steps to Implement Zoning 1. (Optional) Create an alias. An alias is a name assigned to a device or group of devices. By creating an alias you can assign a familiar name to a device, or you can group multiple devices into a single name. This can simplify cumbersome entries, and it can
  • HP Surestore 6164 | Zoning User's Guide - Page 22
    also be uploaded to the host for archiving, and it can be downloaded from the host to all switches in the fabric. 22 Zoning User's Guide
  • HP Surestore 6164 | Zoning User's Guide - Page 23
    Adding a Switch When a new switch is added to the fabric, it automatically takes on the zone configuration information from the fabric. To add the new switch, attach the E_ports; the new switch is incorporated into the fabric and the enabled zone configuration. Merging Fabrics When a new fabric (

    3 USING QUICKLOOP ZONES In addition to zoning fabrics, covered in Chapter 3, Zoning also allows you to zone QuickLoops. By partitioning selected devices within a QuickLoop into a QuickLoop zone you can enhance management of a Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL) in a legacy environment. In
  • HP Surestore 6164 | Zoning User's Guide - Page 26
    ), followed by a list of AL_PAs to be included. QuickLoop names define the switch (or pair of switches) that make up the QuickLoop. 26 Zoning User's Guide
  • HP Surestore 6164 | Zoning User's Guide - Page 27
    A QuickLoop name must be a unique alpha-numeric string beginning with an alpha character. The underscore character ( _ ) is allowed and names are case sensitive. For example, Qloop1 is not the same name as qloop1. 2. Define a QuickLoop zone. A QuickLoop zone is a group of FL_Ports or AL_PAs that can
  • HP Surestore 6164 | Zoning User's Guide - Page 28
    is not the same name as qlconfig_1. 4. Enable a QuickLoop zone configuration. To enable a QuickLoop zone configuration, select the configuration to be enabled. 28 Zoning User's Guide

    A ZONING TELNET COMMANDS To use a Telnet command, log in with administrative privileges to any switch in the fabric, enter the command with required operands, if any, and press Enter. Changes made to the zoning configuration on one switch are replicated through all switches within the fabric. Note
