Overview Zoning Product Manager application on the HAFM server to receive unsolicited SNMP trap messages. The trap messages indicate operational state changes and failure conditions. Note: For more information about SNMP support provided by HP products, refer to the HP StorageWorks SNMP Reference Guide for Directors and Edge Switches. The director supports a name server zoning feature that partitions attached devices into restricted-access groups called zones. Devices in the same zone can recognize and communicate with each other through switched port-to-port connections. Devices in separate zones cannot communicate with each other. Zoning is configured by authorizing or restricting access to name server information associated with device N_Ports that attach to director fabric ports (F_Ports). A zone member is specified by the port number to which a device is attached, or by the eight-byte (16-digit) World Wide Name (WWN) assigned to the host bus adapter (HBA) or Fibre Channel interface installed in a device. A device can belong to multiple zones. Caution: If zoning is implemented by port number, a change to the director fiber-optic cable configuration disrupts zone operation and may incorrectly include or exclude a device from a zone. If zoning is implemented by WWN, removal and replacement of a device HBA or Fibre Channel interface (thereby changing the device WWN) disrupts zone operation and may incorrectly include or exclude a device from a zone. In Open Fabric mode, only zoning by WWN is supported. Zoning by port numbers is not supported. Zones are grouped into zone sets. A zone set is a group of zones that is enabled (activated) or disabled across all directors and edge switches in a multi-switch fabric. Only one zone set can be enabled at one time. 24 Director 2/64 Installation Guide
