saving zoning parametersBefore making any change to a switch configuration, it is good practice to save theinformation i.e parameters to a diffent location i.e. a server.
Identify the server which you re going to upload the configuration and typeconfigupload.

An alias is a name assigned to a device or group of devices. By creating an alias youcan assigna familiar name to a device, or you can group multiple devices into a single name.
An alias must be a unique alpha-numeric string beginning with an alpha character. Theunderscore character ( _ ) is allowed and alias names are case sensitive
Aliases can greatly simplify the administrative process; however, they are not requiredtodefine zones.
i.e alicreate "a_host1_hba0","50:06:0b:00:00:bc:be:22"
or alicreate "a_host1_hba1","1,2"
2. Define zone
A zone is a group of devices that can communicate with each other. Zone membershipcaninclude ports, WWNs, or aliases, or any combination of these. And, a device can beincluded inmore than one zone.
To define a zone, specify the list of members to be included and assign a unique zonename;the zone name must be a unique alpha-numeric string beginning with an alphacharacter.
i.e. zonecreate z_aixhosts","a_aix01;a_aix02;a_aix03;10:00:00:60:69:00:00:8a;1,2"
3. Define Zone Configuration
A zone configuration is a group of zones that are enforced whenever that zoneconfiguration isenabled. And, a zone can be included in more than one zone configuration.
To define a zone configuration, specify the list of zones to be included and assign azoneconfiguration name; the zone configuration name must be a unique alpha-numeric stringbeginning with an alpha character.
i.e cfgadd "production1","z_aixhosts"
4. Enable zone configuration

To enable a zone configuration, select the zone configuration to be enabled. Theconfigurationis downloaded to the switch hardware.
i.e cfgenable production1

Specify alias by portTo specify by port number, you must specify switch domain ID and port number, forexample, 2,12 indicates switch domain ID 2, port number 12. When a member is
specified by port number all devices connected to the port are included in the zone.

single vs dual fabric
Dual Fabrics
For mission critical applications, Brocade strongly recommends that you install a dualfabric, which allows you to upgrade each fabric separately with no loss of service(provided that you have configured failover software).For example, to upgrade the dual fabric shown in the picture, you first upgrade Fabric 1by deactivating the link from the host to Fabric 1. The host continues to access the data

Basic fabric merges arent very difficult from a technical stand point. However, manynetwork administrators fail to do the proper research up front and therefore run intoissues that can easily be avoided. To make sure the merge is successful administratorsshould focus on keeping things simple and avoid doing to much during the mergeprocess. Then after the merge is successful go back and add any additional
configuration needed to handle load and fault tolerance.
Below are the basic steps and research you need to do in order to perform a basicmerge of two Brocade fabrics. A basic fabric merge consists of the followingassumptions
* No long distance ISLs are involved.* Only one ISL between each switch will be implemented (no Trunking).* No advance configuration of the switches.
* All Switches are from the same vendor (Brocade in this case).
Research and Preliminary Steps
1) Verify root and admin level userids and password for all switches.
2) Verify support agreements are in place should you need help with an issue.
3) Check that the Brocade Fabric License is installed on all Switches
a. This is also called the Full Fabric License
b. Order and install license if not already installed.
4) Upgrade the Fabric OS (aka: Switch Firmware, or FOS) as needed on every switch tomeet all the following requirements:
a. Compatibility with all Storage Arrays
i. Check with your vendor
b. Compatibility with all HBA drivers, BIOS, firmware, etc.
i. Check with your vendor
c. Compatibility with other Fabric OSs
i. Check with your switch vendor (Brocade or your reseller)
ii. In general try to get the same Fabric OS installed on all switches. If not exactly the
7/22/2019 Zoning Illustration of the Change Step by Steps
19/27
same they need to be within the same major version level and possibly the minor oneas well.
1. Version 5.3.0c = major.minor.revision
5) Check Domain IDs of all Switches
a. In a Fabric no two switches can have the same Domain ID. Find and correct anyissues now, or plan to correct the Domain ID issue during the merge.
6) Check Zone and Alias Names
a. Zone and Alias Names cannot be duplicated between the two fabrics. Find andcorrect any duplicate zone or alieas names. A simple solution to this issue is to prefix allnames with a fabric label (fabA_, fabB_, etc.)
7) Check for duplicate IP addresses assigned to the switches.
a. Most director class FC switches have multiple IPs so check them all.
8) Check for incompatible Fabric Parameters on the switches to be merged.
a. Use the configshow command and compare values of all fabric.xxxx parameters
b. Verify that all RA_TOV and ED_TOV values are the same on every switch. Per theFC-SW2 standard, these values must be the same on each switch within the fabric.
c. This issue and other advance settings issues are very rare. Basically if you haveimplemented advanced settings on your switches you should know and understandthose settings. If you are using the default settings of the switch you can generallyassume the settings are compatible.
Planning Phase
1) Plan your Principal Switch for the fabric
a. You should not allow the fabric to determine the Principal Switch because all fabricchanges (Zone Changes) should occur at the Principal Switch. This switch should bethe most highly available switch in the fabric.
2) Plan your fabric type
a. The type of fabric being created (Full Mesh or Core-Edge) really doesnt matter forthe merge, but you need to know this to properly plan for your ISLs.
7/22/2019 Zoning Illustration of the Change Step by Steps
20/27
3) Plan your ISLs
a. Plan which ports will be ISLs
4) Plan any server or storage moves as needed.
a. Minimize these and/or perform them a few days after a successful merge.
5) Determine zone merge method
a. The easiest Zone Merge is to determine which Fabric (Zone Config) will be used asthe foundation to the new Fabric, and disable Zoning on the switches in the other fabric.
i. This is advantageous if you have single switch fabrics.
ii. When you Disable Zoning all existing Zone configurations will be merged, butdisabled.
iii. This choice of which Zone Config to keep should match with the Principal Switchchoice made earlier.
b. The other (more difficult) method is to manually export all Zone Configurationinformation from each Fabric and import it into the other. Then you will need to namethe Zone Configs in both Fabrics to the same name and verify that all the zoneconfiguration information matches.
6) Order Port Licenses and Fiber cables as needed to perform your merge.
Implementation Phase for Disable Zoning Merge Method
1) Shutdown all servers on the fabric that is to be merged.
2) Disable Zoning on the Principal Switch of the fabric that is to be merged.
a. This should be enough to disable zoning on the whole fabric, if not then DisableZoning on every switch in the fabric that is to be merged.
3) Connect ONE ISL from one merged fabric switch to the target fabric.
a. Use the Brocade Web Interface on the target fabric switch to monitor to the merge.
b. If switches become segmented review the Switch Events for errors and attempt

When zoning is disabled, the fabric is in non-zoning state and devices can access otherdevices in the fabric. When zoning is enabled, zoning is enforced throughout the fabricand devices can communicate only within their zones.A switch can maintain any number of zone configurations; however, only one zoneconfiguration can be enabled, or enforced, at a time.
Because multiple configurations reside in the switch, you can switch from oneconfiguration to another as events dictate. For example, you can set up a prespecifiedzone configuration to be enabled at certain times of the day; or, in the event of adisaster, you can quickly enable a defined configuration to implement your disasterpolicy. Zone configurations can be:
Defined
This is the complete set of all zone objects that have been defined in thefabric. When zone objects are defined, the information initially resides in
RAM; it must be saved to ensure that it is saved to flash memory and is notlost during power down or when a new zone configuration is enabled.Changes replicate to all switches in the fabric whenever the zoneinformation is changed. However, changes must be saved to flash memory tobe committed to persistent store (that is, to remain across reboot).
Enabled
This is the zone configuration that is enabled (active). It resides in RAM; itmust be saved to ensure that it is not lost when a new configuration isenabled or during power down. Any changes replicate to all switches in thefabric when the configuration is enabled or saved. Use the cfgEnablecommand to: enable a zone configuration, initiate cfgSave, and propagatezoning throughout the fabric.
Disabled
Use the cfgDisable command to: disable a zoning configuration, initiatecfgSave to save the zoning configuration to the flash, and to propagate thezoning configuration throughout the fabric.
Saved
This is the zone configuration that was last saved. It resides in flash memoryand it is persistent.
Saving a Zone Configuration (refer to the picture)
When it is defined, it resides only in RAM. To transfer
7/22/2019 Zoning Illustration of the Change Step by Steps
23/27
it to flash memory, to be permanently stored and accessible across reboots, it must besaved. This can be accomplished by either: Saving it directly to flash (the recommended method) Enabling it first, then it is saved to flash.But, until it has been saved to flash, it is not permanently stored and available across
reboots.
Note: Only the enabled configuration (in the shaded area) is enforced.Posted byabu maryam at4:21 AMNo comments:Labels:brocade
Hard Zoning or Soft ZoningZone Types
Zones can be hard (hardware enforced) or soft (advisory).
In a hard zone, sometimes referred to as a port zone, zone members are specified byphysical port number. In a soft zone, at least one zone member is specified logically byWorld Wide Name (WWN).
Hard Zones In a hard zone, all zone members are specified as switch ports; anynumberof ports in the fabric can be configured to the zone. When a zone member isspecified by port number, only the individual device port specified isincluded in the zone.
Hard zones are position-dependent, that is, a device is identified by the
physical port to which it is connected. Switch hardware ensures that there isno data transfer between unauthorized zone members. However, devices cantransfer data between ports within the same zone. Consequently, hard zoningprovides the greatest security possible. Use it where security must be rigidlyenforced.
Soft ZonesIn a soft zone, at least one zone member is specified by WWN. A device isincluded in a zone if either the node WWN or port WWN specified matchesan entry in the name server table.
When a device logs in, it queries the name server for devices within the
fabric. If zoning is in effect, only the devices in the same zone(s) arereturned. Other devices are hidden from the name server query reply. Whena WWN is specified, all ports on the specified device are included in thezone.
Soft zones are name server-dependent and therefore provide more flexibility- new devices can be attached without regard to physical location. However,

24/27
the switch does not control data transfer so there is no guarantee against datatransfer from unauthorized zone members. Use soft zoning where flexibilityis important and security can be ensured by the cooperating hosts.
In addition to hard and soft zones, a third type of zone is also available:
Broadcast ZoneOnly one broadcast zone can exist within a fabric. It is namedbroadcast and it is used to specify those nodes that are to receive broadcast traffic.
This type of zone is hardware enforced; the switch controls data transfer to aport.Posted byabu maryam at2:40 AMNo comments:Labels:brocade
