Documentation Example When zoning changes are made to a VSAN, the zone set data is propagated to the rest of the switches in the fabric via the ISLs. By default, only the active zone set information is relayed to all switches in the VSAN. If the user accesses the Fabric Manager and CLI from another switch in the fabric, the new VSAN and zone set information will not be viewable. To view the active and inactive zone set on the other switches in the fabric, the user must log in to the CLI and issue a command from the EXEC prompt. The following is an example of copying VSAN 1 through 20 zoning data: CiscoMDS_name# zone copy active full vsan 1-20 CiscoMDS_name# conf t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL Z. CiscoMDS_name(config)# zoneset distribute full vsan 1-20 CiscoMDS_name(config)# Note: This command needs to be issued on all switches in the fabric one time only. This is a nondisruptive command. After issuing the commands, the user will now see the active and inactive zone sets for the specified VSANs on any switch that is chosen from which to manage the fabric. After a zoning change is made, save the running configuration to the startup configuration. Documentation Send documentation comments to mdsfeedback-doc.com. Product documentation As of NX-OS Release 4.2(1a), software configuration information is available in new feature-specific configuration guides for the following information: System management Interfaces Fabric Quality of service Security IP services High availability and redundancy The information in these new guides previously existed in the Cisco MDS 9000 Family CLI Configuration Guide. That configuration guide remains available on Cisco.com and should be used for all software releases prior to NX-OS Release 4.2(1a). Configuration guides address the features introduced in or available in a particular release. Select and view the configuration guide that pertains to the software installed in your switch. In addition, Data Center Network Manager (DCNM) information has been removed from the MDS NX-OS Release Notes (this document) and placed into standalone DCNM Release Notes that support both Cisco MDS 9000 Family switches and Cisco Nexus 5000 Series switches. 20 Dell EMC Connectrix MDS 9000 NX-OS Release Notes

Dell EMC Connectrix MDS 9000 NX-OS Release Notes
Documentation
When zoning changes are made to a VSAN, the zone set data is propagated to the rest of the
switches in the fabric via the ISLs. By default, only the active zone set information is relayed
to all switches in the VSAN. If the user accesses the Fabric Manager and CLI from another
switch in the fabric, the new VSAN and zone set information will not be viewable. To view the
active and inactive zone set on the other switches in the fabric, the user must log in to the CLI
and issue a command from the EXEC prompt.
Example
The following is an example of copying VSAN 1 through 20 zoning data:
CiscoMDS_name# zone copy active full vsan 1-20
CiscoMDS_name# conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with
CNTL Z
.
CiscoMDS_name(config)# zoneset distribute full vsan 1-20
CiscoMDS_name(config)#
Note:
This command needs to be issued on all switches in the fabric one time only.
This is a nondisruptive command. After issuing the commands, the user will now see the active
and inactive zone sets for the specified VSANs on any switch that is chosen from which to
manage the fabric.
After a zoning change is made, save the running configuration to the startup configuration.
