Setting change limits on zoning activation
Use this procedure to set a limit on the number of changes a user can make to the zone database
before activating a zone configuration. If the user exceeds the limit, zone configuration activation is
not allowed. By default, all fabrics allow unlimited changes. Changes include adding, removing, or
modifying zones, aliases, and zone configurations.
Use this procedure to set the following limits:
•
Set a different limit for each fabric.
•
Set limits on some fabrics while allowing other fabrics to have unlimited changes.
•
Set a limit for fabrics that will be discovered later.
NOTE
You must have the Zoning Set Edit Limits privilege to perform this task.
1. Select Configure > Zoning > Set Change Limits.
The Set Change Limits for Zoning Activation dialog box displays.
2. Click Change Count for the fabric on which you want to set limits.
The field changes to an editable field.
3. Enter the maximum number of zone database changes that can be made for that fabric before
a zone configuration is activated.
To set a limit, enter a positive integer.
To allow unlimited changes, enter 0.
4. Repeat step 2 and step 3 for each fabric on which you want to set limits.
5. To set a limit for new, undiscovered fabrics, enter a value in the Default Change Count for New
Fabrics field.
This limit is enforced on all new fabrics as they are discovered. The default value is 0
(Unlimited).
6. Select the Enforce change limits during zone activation check box to enforce the change limits.
If you want to set the limits now, but turn on enforcement of the limits at a later time, make
sure the check box is clear.
7. Click OK to save your changes and close the dialog box.
Clearing the fabric zone database
ATTENTION
Clearing the zone database removes all zoning configuration information, including all aliases,
zones, and zone configurations, in the fabric.
Clearing the fabric zone database is disruptive to the fabric.
1. Select Configure > Zoning > Fabric.
The Zoning dialog box displays.
