71 Diamond Storage Array 
Configuring Zones
Be careful when changing Diamond Storage 
Array zoning configurations. Internal validation 
logic cannot detect misconfigurations
An unrestricted zone configuration, exactly 
mimicking the LUN configuration, is created 
internally after the first power-up or restart after 
installation of the array. No special operating 
modes are required and Zoning can be easily 
installed with no impact on previous 
configurations. The unrestricted zone can be 
considered an all/all/all zone: all hosts, all ports 
and all devices. 
Examples of initial configurations are available in 
To create a zone
1
The array must be configured to JBOD, the 
appropriate QuickRAID and/or Partition 
configuration before applying the Zoning 
configuration. 
Note
Interpretation of the Zoning command is a 
single forward pass, so any entities referenced 
in any command must have been previously 
defined (
ZoneCreate
, followed by 
ZoneAdd
etc.) or you receive an error message.
• Type 
ZoneInfo Planned 
to determine the 
status of a Planned Zone Configuration.
• Type 
ZoneInfo
 to determine the status of an 
Active Zone Configuration.
•  If you want to start fresh and create zones 
without reference to the definitions in the 
current Active Zone Configuration, type 
ZoneClearAll
 to remove all entries from the 
Planned zone definition table.
2
Create a new named zone. Type 
ZoneCreate zone_name
3
Add the devices, hosts and ports you want to 
include in the zone.
ZoneAddDevice zone_name device_lun
ZoneAddHost zone_name host_name
ZoneAddPorts zone_name port_number
4
Enable the zone, type
ZoneState zone_name enabled
5
Type 
ZoneCommit
 to make this Planned Zone 
Configuration the Active Zone Configuration.
Refer to 
x for sample configurations.
6
If the Diamond pauses operation by using a 
queue while a 
ZoneCommit
 command is 
executing:
 a. The array completes any in-process 
I/O requests received before the 
ZoneCommit command was issued
 b. The array performs the zoning changes
 c. The array resumes I/O operations.
To remove zones
1
Remove the named zone. Type 
ZoneRemove zone_name
2
Type 
ZoneCommit
 to commit this Planned Zone 
Configuration to become the Active Zone 
Configuration.
