4b. Zone the fibre channel fabric to allow the DL4000 to access the storage array
Zoning logically partitions a fibre channel SAN fabric such that devices can access each other. There are many
methods and approaches to zoning, thus consult your SAN administrator for zoning practices used in your
environment. The following steps describe single initiator and target zoning using a Brocade 6505 fibre channel
switch. A zone created in this example use port WWN’s to allow the DL4000 to access only the MD3600f.
Eight port based single initiator zones are created. Four zones are created on fibre channel switch-1 and four
zones are created on switch-2.
1. Launch the Brocade switch-1 management GUI.
2. Identify the DL4000 initiator WWN and the four MD3600f target WWNs connected to the switch. The
following four zones will be created in Brocade switch-1:
Initiator (DL4000 QLogic WWN) Target (MD3600f controller WWN)
21:00:00:24:ff:59:e9:1c
20:24:c8:1f:66:c8:f3;da
20:25:c8:1f:66:c8:f3:da
20:34:c8:1f:66:c8:f3;da
20:35:c8:1f:66:c8:f3:da
3. Create the four zones in switch-1.
i. Select New Zone and enter a zone name. DL_DR_Zone1 was used in this example.
ii. Highlight the QLogic initiator and press the arrow button to add it as a new zone member.
iii. Highlight one of the MD36000f target ports and press the arrow button to add it as a new zone
member.
iv. A new zone has been created. Repeat steps 1- 3 to create the remaining 3 zones for switch-1.
