Activating an Allow/Prohibit Matrix configuration
NOTE
If you receive a 'FICON not supported on switch' error, refer to FICON troubleshooting for a list of
possible causes.
You must have an active zone configuration before you can activate a Allow/Prohibit Matrix
configuration.
1. Select Configure > Allow/Prohibit Matrix.
The Configure Allow/Prohibit Matrix dialog box displays.
2. Select the Allow/Prohibit Matrix configuration you want to activate. You can do this by
expanding the view for the switch under Available Switches and selecting a configuration, or
you may select the matrix under Allow/Prohibit Matrix.
3. Click Activate.
A confirmation message displays.

4. Select the Active=Saved check box to save the active configuration as the startup
configuration (IPL).
5. Click OK to confirm.
If you select the Active=Saved check box, the text [=Active] is appended to the IPL file in the
Configure Allow/Prohibit Matrix dialog box.
The Active=Saved check box and IPL filename represent the current state of the Active=Saved
Mode (ASM) bit on the switch. However, this is limited to changes done to the ASM
configuration through the Management application. If changes occur through external means
(such as, Webtools/CLI) the changes are not reflected in the Management application until the
Allow/Prohibit Matrix dialog box is re-launched.
