26 Managing fabrics
NOTE: After you click OK in the TR Mapping Manager dialog, the IFZs are created and saved to the
switch. If there is an active zone set with TR mappings, the old IFZs are deleted and replaced with the new
IFZs, and then the active zone set is re-activated. If there is no active zone set, a zone set named
TR_MAPPING_SET” (default name) is created, the new IFZs are added to the zone set, and then the zone
set is activated. If there are no TR mappings, the old IFZs are deleted from the active zone set, and then the
active zone set is re-activated. If there are no zones and no IFZs in the active set, the active zone set is
deactivated.
Remote Fabric Zoning dialog
The Remote Fabric Zoning dialog ( Figure 8 ) allows you to generate and save a text file containing the
zoning commands required to be executed on the remote fabric in order to establish the inter-fabric
connection using a TR port.

To create a zoning commands text file for the remote fabric:
1. Open the faceplate display, and select Fabric > TR Mapping Manager.
2. Create a new TR mapping for a inter-fabric zone, if one does not exist. See ” Mapping a new
inter-fabric zone ” on page 25 for more information.
3. In the TR Mapping Manager dialog ( Figure 7 ), select an entry from the TR Mapping List window.
4. Select File > Generate Remote Zoning.
5. In the Remote Fabric Zoning dialog ( Figure 8 ), choose one of the following options:
• The Comprehensive Zoning Commands for the Initial TR Settings option to show the list of zoning
commands to set up all the IFZs.
• The Zoning Commands Only for Changes to TR Mappings option to show the list of zoning
commands you just made during this session (after opening the TR Mapping Manager dialog).
