TABLE 58 Zone merging scenarios: TI zones
Description Switch A Switch B Expected results
Switch A does not have Traffic Isolation
(TI) zones.
Switch B has TI zones. defined: cfg1
effective: cfg1 defined: cfg1
TI_zone1
effective: cfg1
Clean merge. TI zones are not automatically
activated after the merge.
Switch A has TI zones.
Switch B has identical TI zones. defined: cfg1
TI_zone1
effective: cfg1
defined: cfg1
TI_zone1
effective: cfg1
Clean merge. TI zones are not automatically
activated after the merge.
Switch A has a TI zone.
Switch B has a different TI zone. defined: cfg1
TI_zone1 defined: cfg1
TI_zone2 Fabric segments due to: Zone Conflict cfg
mismatch. Cannot merge switches with
different TI zone configurations.
Switch A has Enhanced TI zones.
Switch B is running Fabric OS v6.4.0 or
later. defined: cfg1
TI_zone1
TI_zone2 defined: none Clean merge. TI zones are not automatically
activated after the merge.
Switch A has Enhanced TI zones.
Switch B is running a Fabric OS version
earlier than v6.4.0. defined: cfg1
TI_zone1
TI_zone2 defined: none Fabric segments because all switches in the
fabric must be running Fabric OS v6.4.0 or
later to support Enhanced TI zones.
TABLE 59 Zone merging scenarios: Default access mode
Description Switch A Switch B Expected results
Different default zone access mode
settings. defzone: allaccess defzone: noaccess Clean merge — noaccess takes precedence
and defzone configuration from Switch B
propagates to fabric.
defzone: noaccess
Same default zone access mode
settings. defzone: allaccess defzone: allaccess Clean merge — defzone configuration is
allaccess in the fabric.
Same default zone access mode
settings. defzone: noaccess defzone: noaccess Clean merge — defzone configuration is
noaccess in the fabric.
Effective zone configuration. No effective
configuration.
defzone = allaccess effective: cfg2
defzone: allaccess or
noaccess Clean merge — effective zone configuration
and defzone mode from Switch B propagates
to fabric.
Effective zone configuration. No effective
configuration.
defzone = noaccess effective: cfg2
defzone: allaccess Fabric segments because Switch A has a
hidden zone configuration (no access)
activated and Switch B has an explicit zone
configuration activated.
Effective zone configuration effective: cfg1
defzone: noaccess No effective
configuration.
defzone: noaccess Clean merge — effective zone configuration
from Switch A propagates to fabric.
Effective zone configuration effective: cfg1
defzone: allaccess No effective
configuration.
defzone: noaccess Fabric segments. You can resolve the zone
conflict by changing defzone to noaccess on
Switch 1.
