Disabling a zone configuration
When you disable the active configuration, the Advanced Zoning feature is disabled on the fabric and all
devices within the fabric can communicate with all other devices. This does not mean that the zoning
database is deleted, however, only that there is no configuration active on the fabric.
When you disable a zone configuration from Advanced Web Tools, keep in mind that the entire zoning
database is automatically saved, and then the selected zone configuration is disabled.
To disable a zone configuration:
1. Launch the Zone Admin module as described on page 95 .
2. Select Actions > Disable Zoning.
The Disable Config warning is displayed.
3. Click Yes to save and disable the current configuration.
Displaying the enabled zone configuration
The enabled zone configuration screen displays the actual content of the single zone configuration that is
currently enabled on the fabric, whether or not it matches the configuration that was enabled when the
current Zone Admin session was launched or last refreshed (see Figure 34 ). The zones, QuickLoops, and
FA zones are displayed, and their contents (ports, WWNs, AL_PAs) are displayed next to them. Aliases
are not displayed in the enabled zone configuration. If there is no active zone configuration enabled on
the switch, a message is displayed to that effect.
The enabled configuration is listed in the top right corner of the Zone Admin module.
