Boot LUN zones
21
•
If you create a TI zone with E_Ports only, failover must be enabled. If failover is disabled, the
specified ISLs will not be able to route any traffic.
•
Ensure that there are multiple paths between switches. Disabling failover locks the specified
route so that only TI zone traffic can use it.
ATTENTION
If failover is disabled, use care when planning your TI zones so that non-TI zone devices are not
isolated. If the disabled failover configuration is not correct, it can cause major fabric disruptions
that are difficult to resolve.
You cannot disable failover if the TI zone was created in the base fabric or in a fabric in which a
logical switch is configured to use XISLs (the Base Fabric for Transport check box is selected).
1. Select Configure > Zoning > Fabric.
The Zoning dialog box displays.
2. Click the Zone DB tab if that tab is not automatically displayed.
3. Select a fabric from the Zoning Scope list.
This identifies the target entity for all subsequent zoning actions and displays the zoning
database for the selected entity.
4. Right-click the Traffic Isolation zone upon which you want to disable failover in the Zones list
and clear the Configured Failover check box.
5. Click OK or Apply to save your changes.
Boot LUN zones
A Boot LUN zone is a special zone used to boot from SAN. Boot LUN zone names have the following
format:
BFA_
HostPortWWN
_BLUN
After you create a Boot LUN zone, it is managed in the same way as standard zones.
You cannot add or remove members of a Boot LUN zone. Boot LUN zones cannot be merged.
Boot LUN zones are not supported for Network OS fabrics.
Creating a Boot LUN zone

database for the selected entity.
Boot LUN zones are not supported for Network OS fabrics.
