switch:admin> zone --show -ic TI_zone*
Defined TI zone configuration:

Troubleshooting TI zone routing problems
Use the following procedure to generate a report of existing and potential problems with TI zones. The
report displays an error type.
• "ERROR" indicates a problem currently exists in the fabric.
• "WARNING" indicates that there is not currently a problem, given the current set of online devices
and reachable domains, but given the activated TI zone configuration, parallel exclusive paths
between a shared device and a remote domain have been detected, which might cause a problem
for devices that join the fabric later.
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account with admin permissions.
2. Enter the zone --showTIerrors command.
zone --showTIerrors
Here is an example report that would be generated for the illegal configuration shown in
on page 347.
switch:admin> zone --showTIerrors
My Domain: 3
Error type: ERROR
Affected Remote Domain: 1
Affected Local Port: 8
Affected TI Zones: etiz1, etiz2
Affected Remote Ports: 1, 2, 3, 4
Setting up TI zones over FCR (sample procedure)
The following example shows how to set up TI zones over FCR to provide a dedicated path shown in
. In this example, three TI zones are created: one in each of the edge fabrics and one in the
backbone fabric. The combination of these three TI zones creates a dedicated path for traffic between
Host 1 in edge fabric 1 and Targets 1 and 2 in edge fabric 2.
Host 1 has port WWN 10:00:00:00:00:08:00:00
Target 1 has port WWN 10:00:00:00:00:02:00:00
Target 2 has port WWN 10:00:00:00:00:03:00:00
