zone Notes 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. Peer Zones are not allowed to be edited using this command. The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric restrictions that may be in place. Refer to "Using Fabric OS Commands" and "Command Availability" for details. Operands This command takes as an operand an action and its associated arguments. When executed without operands, the command displays the usage. --help Displays the command usage. 1. Commands for performing specific zone operations --copy Copies a specified zone object or all zone objects. The current transaction buffer is used for this operation. The following operands are optional: source_zone_object Specifies the zone object. The zone object can be a zone configuration, a zone alias, or several zones. If a source zone object is not specified, all zone configurations are copied over. dest_zone_object Identifies the destination zone object. If dest_zone_object is not specified, source_zone_object is copied over with the same name. If the destination zone object is not already present, one is created (with type as source_zone_object). -f Overwrites existing zone object without confirmation. --expunge Removes all references to the specified zone object and then deletes the zone object. The command displays the list of zone objects to be deleted and prompts for confirmation before deleting the zone objects. The removal of zone object references can trigger the removal of zones not specified in the command. For example, removing the last zone member from a zone deletes the zone, and may trigger a recursive deletion of other zones. The following operand is required: "zone_object" Specifies a zone object. A zone object can be a zone member, zone alias, or a zone. The zone object must be enclosed in double quotation marks. --validate Lists all zone members that are not part of the current zone enforcement table.
