Removing a zone from a zone set
To remove a zone from a zone set:
1.
Select the zone to be removed in the Edit Zoning dialog. The selected zone will be removed from that
zone set only.

Zones that are removed from the active zone set are placed in the orphan zone set. The orphan zone set is
created by the application automatically to hold the zones that are not in the active zone set. The orphan
zone set cannot be removed and is not saved on the switch.

Merging fabrics and zoning
If you join two fabrics with an ISL, the active zone sets from the two fabrics attempt to merge automatically.
The fabrics may consist of a single switch or many switches already connected together. The switches in the
two fabrics attempt to create a new active zone set containing the union of each fabric's active zone set.
The propagation of zoning information only affects the active zone set, not the configured zone sets, unless
Interop Auto Save is turned on.

Zone merge failure
If a zone merge is unsuccessful, the ISLs between the fabrics will isolate due to a zone merge failure, which
will generate an alarm. The reason for the E_Port isolation can also be determined by viewing the port
information. See ”

A zone merge will fail if the two active zone sets have member zones with identical names that differ in
membership or type. For example, consider Fabric A and Fabric B each with a zone named
membership or type. For example, consider Fabric A and Fabric B each with a zone named
ZN1 in its
active zone set. Fabric A ZN1 contains a member specified by Domain ID 1 and Port 1; Fabric B ZN1
contains a member specified by Domain ID 1 and Port 2. In this case, the merge will fail because the two
zones have the same name, but different membership.

zones have the same name, but different membership.
A zone merge may also fail if the merged zones/members exceeds the max zoning limits. See ”
” on page 39 for more information on zoning limits.
Zone merge failure recovery
When a zone merge failure occurs, the conflict that caused the failure must be resolved. You can correct a
failure due to a zone conflict by deactivating one of the active zone sets or by editing the conflicting zones
so that their membership is the same. You can deactivate the active zone set on one fabric if the active
zone set on the other fabric accurately defines your zoning needs. If not, you must edit the zone
memberships, and reactivate the zone sets. After correcting the zone membership, reset the isolated ports
to allow the fabrics to join.

NOTE:
If you deactivate the active zone set in one fabric and the Interop Auto Save parameter is
enabled, the active zone set from the second fabric will propagate to the first fabric and replace all zones
with matching names in the configured zone sets.
