Zone Administration

Sample Configuration

 shows a sample zoning configuration:

Zoning Schemes

Various levels of zoning (or Zoning schemes) are created to isolate systems that 
have different operating environments. For example, you can create a zone of all 
ports connected to UNIX Servers, or another zone of all ports connected to 
Windows Servers. Zones are created to limit access of devices to other devices 
connected to the fabric within the same zone. 

Zones can be configured dynamically. They can vary in size depending on the 
number of fabric connected devices, and devices can belong to more than one 
zone. Because zone members can access only other members of the same zone, a 
device not included in a zone is not available to members of that zone.

Security

Zoning can only be managed or accessed by the primary FCS switch when 
security is enabled; the Zoning icon only appears on the primary FCS switch. If 
security is not enabled, the Zone icon appears in the Fabric Toolbar of every 
licensed switch. 

For specific information regarding Secure Fabrics, refer to the HP StorageWorks 
Secure Fabric OS Version 1.0 User Guide.
