Partition Method of optical fiber switch

The help Command for partitioning zones of Optical Fiber switches prompts you how to perform this operation. Zonehelp prompts you how to operate zones. Zonecreate command to create a zone. Command: zonecreate "zone_name", "number; number ". Here, number can be "domain, port number", "wwn", zone alias, and Quickloop AL_PAs. The default vswitch domain is 1 and the port number ranges from 0 to 15. You can use switchshow to view the configuration. It is important to remember that you must use saved save and cfgenable to make it take effect. **************************************** * ***************** On the IBM 2109 Fiber Channel switch to set the partition step environment SAN 2109 on the IBM 2109 Fiber Channel Switch set Partition (Zoning) on) partitioning in a storage Region network can meet the storage requirements of different servers and improve the integrity and security of network storage data. The following steps are required to partition an IBM2109 optical fiber switch. 1. Creating a Member (Member) to create a Member in a partition actually helps the Administrator manage the partition, that is, assigning a name that is easier to remember to the Member (switch port or WWPN) in the partition. The created command is aliCreate "note name", "port; or WWPN ". For example, aliCreate "TechSvr", "1, 1" aliCreate "TechDisk", "D1WWPN; D2WWPN" aliCreate "Sales", "1, 5; D3WWPN; D4WWPN, we have created three members named "TechSvr, TechDisk, and Sales", and their corresponding members are "Port 1 (including the domain information of the switch) "," D1 WWPN and D2 WWPN "," Port 5, D3 WWPN and D4 WWPN ". 2. Create a partition (Zone) to create a partition is for the help name, divide them into different partitions. Devices in the same partition can communicate with each other. Devices in different partitions cannot communicate with each other. The created command is zoneCreate "Zone name" and "member's note name; (member's note name )". For example, zoneCreate "ZoneTech", "TechSvr; TechDisk" zoneCreate "ZoneSales", and "Sales". We created two partitions: "ZoneTech" and "ZoneSales ", zoneTech includes members represented by TechSvr and TechDisk, and ZoneSales includes members represented by Sales. For specific members, see the Member definitions above. Zonecreate command to create a zone. Command: zonecreate "zone_name", "number; number ". Here, number can be "domain, port number", "wwn", zone alias, and Quickloop AL_PAs. The default vswitch domain is 1 and the port number ranges from 0 to 15. You can use switchshow to view the configuration. It is important to remember that you must use saved save and cfgenable to make it take effect. 3. Create a partition Configuration file that corresponds to different partition configurations. The created command is configure create "configuration file name", "Zone name; (Zone name )". For example, when create "cfgTechSales" and "ZoneTech; ZoneSales", we create a configuration file, which contains information about the two partitions ZoneTech and ZoneSales. 4. the startup configuration file is located on the same 2109 optical fiber switch. There can be multiple partition configuration files, but only one of them takes effect. The command for starting the configuration file to take effect is cfgEnable "configuration file name ". For example, cfgEnable "cfgTechSales" 5. The command to save the configuration file on 2109 is "Save save. In this way, we have configured the partition (Zoning) on IBM 2109 ). You can run the ZoneHelp command on the vswitch to view other command information about partition configuration. **************************************** * ***************** Brocade 4 Gb SAN Switch (for HP c-Class BladeSystem) -ZONE: configure the Brocade 4 Gb SAN Switch (for HP c-Class BladeSystem)-create the Technical Work Instruction alias. Creating aliases is easy to remember and view. Alias-related commands: aliadd alias alicreate alidelete aliremove alishow example: alicreate "bl460c_prot1", "10: 00: 00: 00: c9: 71: 00: a4 "(create an alias for the wwn of the blade's optical fiber card) alicreate" outport "and" "(create an 'outport' alias for an external connection port '). Create zone-related commands: zone zonedelete zoneobjectexpunge zoneshow zoneadd zonehelp zoneobjectrename zonecreate zoneobjectcopy zoneremove example: zonecreate "zone1", "region; outport ". Note: create a zone and separate the ports with semicolons (;). Add the port created with the alias and port 18 of the switch. Use the port alias, wwn, and port. Create a zone configuration file. Related commands: abstractvshow disable into saveactivetodefined into add cfgenable into show variable clear cfgmcdtmode variable size variable create cfgremove variable transabort variable Delete multiple save variable transshow. For example, create "zone1_cfg", "zone1" (create a zone configuration file), enable the configuration file, and save the configuration. For example: cfgenable zone1_cfg | cfgsave Note: After the configuration file is enabled and saved, the configuration of the entire zone is OK. In this example, the first port of bl460c AND THE 17,18 port of the external port are in a zone. Special settings. Add an alias Member: Aliadd "bl460c_port1 ". Add a zone member: zoneadd "zone1", "1, 20 ". Cfgenable is required for adding or deleting a port When configuring a zone. When deleting a zone, disable and delete the zone configuration file and zone configuration information. In addition, pay attention to the domain id issue when performing san switch cascade. ++ ++ The initialization settings are nothing more than the windows or unix, set up some time or something and activate port Zone division: the word "Zone" can be called a "group". The "China zone" is like an electric gate in previous years, powering on... the purpose is to divide two ports into one group or the other is to divide the two wwn into one group (no matter which port, the corresponding link of the corresponding wwn is in the same zone) although multiple ports or wwn can be in one group, it is too prone to problems. First, the two ports are divided into one group. Don't be so scared. If these network devices make commands easy to understand, but they are not easy to operate, they also have a good understanding of graphics. three steps: 1. the port is defined as an alias: port01 = aaa-port01, port02 = aaa-port022. create a zone: Like a aaa-zone3. add the port to the zone, that is, add the aaa-port01, aaa-port02 to the aaa-zone. if you create a zone with Port 2 and port 11 in the command line to form a zone: p5504c_00000000sym8530_3bb switch: admin> zonecreate "p5504c_00000000sym8530_3bb", ";", or use an alias: switch: admin> alicreate "SYM8530_3bB", "10, 2" switch: admin> alicreate "p5504c_1_1", "10, 11" switch: admin> zo Necreate "p5504c_00000000sym8530_3bb", "SYM8530_3bB; p5504c_1_1 "++ ++ configuring zones involves configuring Alias for three objects, zone, Configuration. Alias can declare the device's WWN, Domain, and Port as Alias for better and more intuitive device identification. The main purpose of using Alias is to make it easier for users to use. Just remember the difference between a person's ID card number and name to understand the truth, and use Alias to name the device. Another benefit of declaring Alias is to facilitate the replacement of members in the Zone. When a member in the Zone is changed, if Alias is defined, you only need to modify the definition of Alias to adjust the member in the Zone, without modifying the configuration of the Zone. In the Zone, devices in the Zone can access each other, but cannot access devices in other zones. There are three types of Zone members: "Domain, Port"; "WWN"; "Alias ". The Zone has no limit on the number of members. Multiple devices of multiple types can exist in one Zone at the same time. When a wwn is defined in the zone, all its ports will be included in the zone. Configuration is a set of Zone configurations on a vswitch, or a set of zones. It can contain one or more zones as its members. In a SAN network, multiple zones usually exist at the same time, and the same set of zones are stored in a Configuration. To solve the problem that different zones are configured at different times on the vswitch, the Configuration of multiple zones at the same time is allowed on the vswitch to facilitate Zone Configuration switching. Only one Configuration in all Configuration configurations is effective, which is called Active Configuration. The other solutions are available. Their Zoning Configuration takes effect only after they become Active Configuration. There are two main ways to configure Zoning on a vswitch: Telnet and web tools. The configuration of Zoning can be dynamically implemented. When you use cfgEnable to specify a configuration to take effect, the configuration of Zoning takes effect immediately in the SAN network to isolate mutual access between zones. The configuration for creating a new Zoing on a vswitch is generally asked as follows. Telnet window: the general steps are as follows: 1. switchshow # list all ports and WWN2.aliCreate "<alias1>;" "WWN1"; # Set WWN1 to alias1 and alias2. 3. zoneCreate "<zone1>;" "alias1, alias2"; # Add alias1 and alias2 to zone1 4. cfgAdd "<cfg1>;" "zone1, zone2"; # Add zone1 and zone2 to the cfg1 configuration 5. save # Save the configuration on disk 6. cfgEnable "cfg1"; # activate configuration 7. zoneshow # display all configured zones. In addition, the mcdata switch is fully off by default, and the brocade is fully connected. in fact, the concept of this zone is equivalent to vlan in an IP network.
