zone 2 NOTES • TI within edge fabric routes traffic between a real device and a Proxy device to a specified EX_Port. • TI within backbone fabric locks down the route within the backbone fabric based on EX_Ports and devices involved. Use the --showTIerrors option to generate a report of potential routing problems in the local Domain. If the command detects errors, it outputs the ID of the current domain, and for each record, it displays the following information: Error Type Error or Warning. Affected Remote Domain Domain where the traffic drop is likely to be happening. Affected Local Port Device port shared by the TI zones. Affected TI Zones Lists the names of the TI zones implicated in the problem. Affected Remote Ports Remote ports that are affected by the problem in the TI Zones. Using TI zones in logical fabrics has several restrictions. TI zones created in logical fabrics cannot include logical interswitch links (LISLs); only physical port numbers can be included. TI zones cannot use the failover disabled option in Logical fabrics that have LISLs, and TI zones cannot use the failover disabled option in Base Fabrics. For more information, refer to the Fabric OS Administrator's Guide. 3. Manage Frame Redirect (RD) Zones Use the --rdcreate and --rddelete options to manage Frame Redirect Zones. RD zones allow frames to be redirected to devices that can perform additional processing on these frames (for example, encryption). The feature uses a combination of RD zones and Name Server changes to map real device world wide names (WWNs) to virtual port IDs (PIDs.) This allows redirecting a flow between a host and target to a device that can perform its functionality without reconfiguring the host and target. The RD Zone is part of the defined zone configuration and does not appear in the effective zone configuration. Use cfgSave to save the RD zone changes to the defined configuration. Use cfgShow to display the RD zones. When you create the first RD zone, two additional zone objects are created automatically: A base zone "red_______base" and a zone configuration "r_e_d_i_r_c__fg". These additional zone objects are required by the implementation. These zone objects must remain on the switch as long as other redirect zones are defined. Do not remove these objects, unless redirection is no longer required and no other redirect zones exist. Use zone --rddelete to remove the base RD zone, "red_______base", if it is the last remaining RD zone in the RD zone configuration, "r_e_d_i_r_c__fg." When the base zone is removed, the RD zone configuration is removed as well. Device ports are allowed to be part of several TI zones to support enhanced TI zone deployment in FICON environments. You cannot swap E_Ports that are configured as part of a TI zone. The TI zone information is lost when you use portSwap to swap the E_Ports. To work around this issue, reconfigure your TI zones rather than swapping the E_Ports. The current zone commands, zoneCreate, aliCreate, cfgCreate, etc., cannot be used to manage special zones, such as TI zones or RD zones. The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in place. Refer to Chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS Commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for details. Fabric OS Command Reference 53-1002746-01 1097
