Because of the merge between switch-1 and switch-2, device alias A2 becomes available on switch-2, and A2 is mapped to pWWN 21:01:01:01:01:01:01:02. When this occurs, the device alias-based member A2 in the IVR zone z1 is resolved and mapped to pWWN 21:01:01:01:01:01:01:02, and is a member of VSAN 2. However, pWWN 21:01:01:01:01:01:01:02 is already a member of VSAN 1. The mapping that occurs because of the device alias merge makes the IVR configuration illegal; the same pWWN cannot be a member of multiple VSANs. In this case, the pWWN in VSAN 2 is defined using the device alias (A2), while the member in VSAN 1 is defined using the actual pWWN. IVR detects this situation and rejects the device alias validation and the device alias merge fails. Resolving Merge in Progress Issues When a merge occurs, the merged device alias database is validated with the registered applications on each switch in both of the fabrics. During this process, an application database may be in a locked state. Common causes are listed in Table 15-2. OL-9285-05 Cisco MDS 9000 Family Troubleshooting Guide, Release 3.x 15-9
