Figure 26 Zone Admin Module The information in the Zone Admin module is collected from the selected switch. If secure mode is enabled, zoning can be administered only from the primary FCS switch. If the selected switch has an Advanced Zoning license installed but is not the primary FCS switch, the Zone Admin icon is displayed in the Fabric Toolbar but not activated. For specific information regarding secure fabrics, see the HP StorageWorks Secure Fabric OS administrator guide. You must be logged in as an admin or switchAdmin to launch the Zone Admin module. If you are logged in as a switchAdmin, you can access the Zone Admin module in read-only mode only; most of the zoning operations are disabled in read-only mode. A snapshot is taken of all the zoning configurations at the time you launch the Zone Admin module; this information is not updated by Advanced Web Tools. To update this information, see "Refreshing the Zone Admin module information" on page 84. NOTE: Any changes you make in the Zone Admin module are held in a buffered environment and do not update the zoning database until you save the changes. If you close the Zone Admin module without saving your changes, your changes are lost. To save the buffered changes you make in the Zone Admin module to the zoning database on the switch, see "Saving local zoning changes" on page 84. Saving means updating the zoning database on the switch with the local changes from the Advanced Web Tools buffer. Refreshing means copying the current state of the zoning database on the switch to the Advanced Web Tools buffer, overwriting its current contents. 82 Administering zoning

Figure 26
Zone Admin Module
The information in the Zone Admin module is collected from the selected switch.
If secure mode is enabled, zoning can be administered only from the primary FCS switch. If the selected
switch has an Advanced Zoning license installed but is not the primary FCS switch, the Zone Admin icon
is displayed in the Fabric Toolbar but not activated. For specific information regarding secure fabrics, see
the
HP StorageWorks Secure Fabric OS administrator guide
.
You must be logged in as an admin or switchAdmin to launch the Zone Admin module. If you are logged
in as a switchAdmin, you can access the Zone Admin module in read-only mode only; most of the zoning
operations are disabled in read-only mode.
A snapshot is taken of all the zoning configurations at the time you launch the Zone Admin module; this
information is not updated by Advanced Web Tools. To update this information, see ”
Refreshing the Zone
Admin module information
” on page 84.
NOTE:
Any changes you make in the Zone Admin module are held in a buffered environment and do
not update the zoning database until you save the changes. If you close the Zone Admin module without
saving your changes, your changes are lost. To save the buffered changes you make in the Zone Admin
module to the zoning database on the switch, see ”
Saving local zoning changes
” on page 84.
Saving
means updating the zoning database on the switch with the local changes from the Advanced
Web Tools buffer.
Refreshing
means copying the current state of the zoning database on the switch to the
Advanced Web Tools buffer, overwriting its current contents.
