To clear all zone configurations:
1.
Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
2.
Issue the
cfgClear
command to clear all zone information in the transaction buffer.
NOTE:
Be careful using the
cfgClear
command; it deletes the defined configuration.
switch:admin>
cfgclear
The Clear All action will clear all Aliases, Zones, FA Zones
and configurations in the Defined configuration.
cfgSave may be run to close the transaction or cfgTransAbort
may be run to cancel the transaction.
Do you really want to clear all configurations? (yes, y, no, n): (no)
3.
Issue one of the following commands, depending on whether an effective zoning configuration exists:
If no effective zoning configuration exists, issue the
cfgSave
command.
If an effective zoning configuration exists, issue the
cfgDisable
command to disable and clear
the zone configuration in nonvolatile memory for all switches in the fabric.
Maintaining zone objects
Although you can delete a zone configuration, there is a quicker and easier way to perform the same task
with the zone object commands (
zoneObjectExpunge
,
zoneObjectCopy
, and
zoneObjectRename
). You can also copy and rename zone objects. When you copy a zone object, the
resulting object has the same type as the original. Deleting a zone object also removes the object from any
member lists of other objects. You can rename objects for all zone object types.
To copy a zone object:
1.
Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
2.
Issue the
cfgShow
command to view the zone configuration objects you want to copy.
cfgshow "
