alias Description Creates a named set of ports/devices. Aliases make it easier to assign a set of ports/devices to many zones. An alias can not have a zone or another alias as a member. Authority Admin session and Zoning Edit session for all operands except list and members Syntax alias add [alias] [member_list] copy [alias_source] [alias_destination] create [alias] delete [alias] list members [alias] remove [alias] [member_list] rename [alias_old] [alias_new] Operands add [alias] [member_list] Specifies one or more ports/devices given by [member_list] to add to the alias named [alias]. Use a to delimit ports/devices in [member_list]. An alias can have a maximum of 2,000 members. A port/device in [member_list] can have any of the following formats: • Domain ID and port number pair (Domain ID, Port Number). Domain IDs can be 1-239; port numbers can be 0-255. • 6-character hexadecimal device Fibre Channel address (hex) • 16-character hexadecimal Worldwide Port Name (WWPN) with the format xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx. The application verifies that the [alias] format is correct, but does not validate that such a port/device exists. copy [alias_source] [alias_destination] Creates a new alias named [alias_destination] and copies the membership into it from the alias given by [alias_source]. create [alias] Creates an alias with the name given by [alias].

The zoning database supports a maximum of 256 aliases. delete [alias] Deletes the specified alias given by [alias] from the zoning database. If the alias is a member of the active zone set, the alias will not be removed from the active zone set until the active zone set is deactivated. list Displays a list of all aliases. This operand does not require an Admin session. members [alias] Displays all members of the alias given by [alias]. This operand does not require an Admin session. remove [alias] [member_list] Removes the ports/devices given by [member_list] from the alias given by [alias]. Use a to delimit ports/devices in [member_list]. A port/device in [member_list] can have any of the following formats: • Domain ID and port number pair (Domain ID, Port Number). Domain IDs can be 1-239; port numbers can be 0-255. • 6-character hexadecimal device Fibre Channel address (hex) • 16-character hexadecimal WWPN for the device with the format xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx. rename [alias_old] [alias_new] Renames the alias given by [alias_old] to the alias given by [alias_new]. 8/20q Fibre Channel Switch command line interface guide 131
