Copies a zone object.
Syntax
zoneobjectcopy "objectName", "newName”
Availability
Admin
Description
Use this command to copy an existing zone object to a new zone object. The resulting object
has the same type as the original object. You can use this command for all zone object types,
including CFG, zone, and alias.
A zone configuration name must begin with a letter and can be followed by any number of
letters, numerals, and underscores. Names are case sensitive; for example,
Cfg_1
and
cfg_1
are different zone configurations. Spaces are ignored.
This command changes the defined configuration. For the change to be preserved across
switch reboots, it must be saved to nonvolatile memory, using the
cfgsave
command. For
the change to become effective, an appropriate zone configuration must be enabled, using the
cfgenable
command.
See the
zonecreate
command for more information on name and member specifications.
Note: This command requires an Advanced Zoning license. When security is enabled, this
command can be issued only from the primary FCS switch.

objectName
