3. Enter the cfgSave command to save the change to the defined configuration.
The cfgSave command ends and commits the current zoning transaction buffer to nonvolatile
memory. If a transaction is open on a different switch in the fabric when this command is run, the
transaction on the other switch is automatically aborted. A message displays on the other switches
to indicate that the transaction was aborted.
4. Enter the cfgShow command to view the changes.

Replacing zone members
Fabric OS allows you to replace one zone member with another zone member using a CLI command.
This command takes two inputs. The first is the member to be replaced and the second is the new
member. These inputs can be formatted only with WWN or D,I zoning schemes.
Notes and restrictions
• To make a configuration change effective, a cfgEnable command should be issued after the
zoneObjectReplace command. Otherwise, the changes will be in the transaction buffer but not
committed.
• Only members of regular zones and aliases (those identified using either D,I or WWN) can be
replaced using zoneObjectReplace .
• The zoneObjectReplace command is not applicable for Frame Redirect (FR) and Traffic Isolation
(TI) zones. Only members of regular zones can be replaced using this command.
• The zoneObjectReplace command does not work with aliases. Alias members (that is, members
inside an alias) can be replaced using zoneObjectReplace , but an alias itself cannot be directly
