Searching for a zone member
You can search zone member selection lists for specified strings of text. If you know some identifying
information about a possible member of a zoning entity, you can select the tab and view for that entity
and then search through its member selection list using the Search for Zone Member option. If the target
entity is an alias, zone, QuickLoop, or FA zone, the search domain includes elements like switch names
and domain numbers, port names and “domain, port” addresses, device WWNs, and manufacturer
names, and also any aliases that already have been defined. If the target entity is a configuration, zones,
FA zones, and QuickLoops are also included, along with the elements they contain.
The search starts at the top of the list; when the target element is found, it is also selected in the Member
Selection List so it can be added or its parent or children can be found. By default, the Member Selection
List is searched from beginning to end one time. If you select the wraparound option, the search continues
to loop from the beginning to the end of the Member Selection List.
