Fabric Zoning The following are some important points to remember about zone sets: ■ If no zone set is active, and the default zone is disabled, then no devices can communicate. ■ If you activate a zone set when there is already an active zone set, that set will replace the currently active zone set. ■ If you deactivate the current active zone set, then all devices connected in the fabric become members of the default zone. Active Zone Set An active zone set is a zone set that is currently active on a single-switch fabric or across all managed products in a multiswitch fabric. At any time, you can disable zoning by deactivating the active zone set and enabling the default zone, or you can enable zoning by activating a zone set. When a zone set is active, all zones that are members of that zone set are active. Only one zone set can be active for the fabric at one time. If no zones are active, then all devices are considered to be in the default zone. Zoning Library The Zoning Library contains all of the zone members, zones, and zone sets configured through the HAFM. Any zone set in the library may be selected and activated on a fabric. You can view components of this library through dialog boxes and panels in the Zones and Zone Sets tabs of the Zoning Library dialog box. 140 High Availability Fabric Manager User Guide
