Chapter 14 Troubleshooting Zones and Zone Sets
Enhanced Zoning Issues
switch4(config)#
no zoneset activate name excal2 vsan 1
Zoneset Deactivation initiated. check zone status
Step 2
Use the
show zoneset active
command to confirm that the zone set has been removed.
Step 3
Use the
shut down
command to shut down the connection to the zone to be merged.
switch4(config)#
interface port-channel 1
switch4(config-if)#
shutdown
Nov 19 10:26:10 switch4 %LOG_PORT-5-IF_DOWN_CHANNEL_ADMIN_DOWN: Interface fc1/14 is down
(Channel admin down)
Nov 19 10:26:10 switch4 %LOG_PORT-5-IF_DOWN_CHANNEL_ADMIN_DOWN: Interface fc1/15 is down
(Channel admin down)
Nov 19 10:26:10 switch4 %LOG_PORT-5-IF_DOWN_CHANNEL_ADMIN_DOWN: Interface fc1/16 is down
(Channel admin down)
Nov 19 10:26:10 switch4 %LOG_PORT-5-IF_DOWN_PORT_CHANNEL_MEMBERS_DOWN: Interface
port-channel 1 is down (No operational members)
Nov 19 10:26:10 switch4 %LOG_PORT-5-IF_DOWN_ADMIN_DOWN: Interface port-channel 1 is down
(Administratively down)
Nov 19 10:26:10 switch4 %LOG_PORT_CHANNEL-5-FOP_CHANGED: port-channel 1: first operational
port changed from fc1/16 to none
Step 4
Use the
no shutdown
command to reactivate the connection to the zone to be merged:
switch4(config-if)#
no shutdown
Nov 19 10:28:11 switch4 %LOG_PORT_CHANNEL-5-FOP_CHAN
GED: port-channel 1: first operational port changed from none to fc1/15
Nov 19 10:28:21 switch4 %LOG_PORT-5-IF_UP: Interface port-channel 1 is up in mode TE
Nov 19 10:28:21 switch4 %LOG_PORT-5-IF_TRUNK_UP: Interface fc1/14, vsan 1 is up
Nov 19 10:28:21 switch4 %LOG_PORT-5-IF_TRUNK_UP: Interface fc1/15, vsan 1 is up
Nov 19 10:28:21 switch4 %LOG_PORT-5-IF_TRUNK_UP: Interface fc1/16, vsan 1 is up
Nov 19 10:28:21 switch4 %LOG_PORT-5-IF_TRUNK_UP: Interface fc1/14, vsan 1 is up
Nov 19 10:28:21 switch4 %LOG_PORT-5-IF_TRUNK_UP: Interface fc1/15, vsan 1 is up
Nov 19 10:28:21 switch4 %LOG_PORT-5-IF_TRUNK_UP: Interface fc1/16, vsan 1 is up
Step 5
Use the
show zoneset
active
vsan-id
commands to exit configuration mode and check the active zone
sets.
switch4#
show zoneset active
zoneset name wall vsan 1
zone name excal1 vsan 1
* fcid 0x620200
fcid 0x6200ca
zone name $default_zone$ vsan 1
* fcid 0x6e00da
* fcid 0x6e00d9
* fcid 0x6e00d6
* fcid 0x6e0100
After deactivating the zone set on switch 4 and performing a shutdown followed by a no shutdown on
the ISL that connects it to switch 3, the zone merge is processed again. Because switch 3 has no active
zone set, it learns the active zone set from switch 4 during the zone merge process.
Enhanced Zoning Issues
Enhanced zoning uses a session locking facility like CFS to prevent simultaneous zoning configuration
changes by two users on the same or separate switches. When a user starts to make a zoning change on
one switch for a VSAN, that switch will lock the fabric to prevent others from making zoning changes.
The user must issue a commit to make the changes active and release the fabric wide lock.
