Zone merging

Switch A and Switch B have different
defined configurations. Switch B has an
effective configuration. defined: cfg2
zone2: ali3; ali4
effective: none defined: cfg1
zone1: ali1; ali2
effective: cfg1 Clean merge. The new configuration will be a
composite of the two, with cfg1 as the
effective configuration.
Switch A does not have a defined
configuration.
Switch B has a defined configuration
and an effective configuration, but the
effective configuration is different from
the defined configuration. defined: none
effective: none defined: cfg1
zone1: ali1; ali2
effective: cfg1
zone1: ali1; ali2
zone2: ali3, ali4
Clean merge. Switch A absorbs the defined
configuration from the fabric, with cfg1 as the
effective configuration.
In this case, however, the effective
configurations for Switch A and Switch B are
different. You should issue a cfgenable from
the switch with the proper effective
configuration.
