Zoning的管理
来源于《Fabric OS Administrator’s Guide Supporting Fabric OS v6.1.0 》之 Administering Advanced Zoning，更详细资料请看该英文文档1.Zone的类型：Storage-based、Host-based、Fabric-based
2.fabric-based zoning入门：推荐 Single HBA、Application、Operating system、Port allocation ，不推荐 No fabric zoning
3.Zone对象（objects）：
• Physical port number or port index on the switch
• Node World Wide Name (N-WWN)
• Port World Wide Name (P-WWN)
4.Zoning方案
• Domain,index
所有成员通过domain ID, port number或domain, index number pair或aliases指定。
• World Wide Name (WWN)
所有成员只通过World Wide Name (WWNs)或WWNs的aliases指定。它们能够是node WWN或port WWN。
• 混合zoning
一个zone包含的成员通过domain,port或domain,index和WWN混合指定
5.Zone别名(aliases)
6.Zone配置
Defined Configuration、Effective Configuration、Saved Configuration和Disabled Configuration
7.Zoning enforcement
Software-enforced zoning：也叫做name server zoning,fabric-based zoning,或session-based zoning。
Hardware-enforced zoning：也叫做 hard zoning或ASIC-enforced zoning
8.广播(Broadcast)zones
Best practices for zoning
The following are recommendations for using zoning:
• Always zone using the highest Fabric OS-level switch.
Switches with earlier Fabric OS versions do not have the capability to view all the functionality
that a newer Fabric OS provides, as functionality is backwards compatible but not forwards
compatible.
• Zone using the core switch versus an edge switch.
• Zone using an enterprise-class platform rather than a switch.
An enterprise-class platform has more resources to handle zoning changes and
implementations.
