Chapter 1 Configuring and Managing Zones
Enhanced Zoning
If the fabric is locked by another user and for some reason the lock is not cleared, you can force the
operation and close the session. You must have permission (role) to clear the lock in this switch and
perform the operation on the switch from where the session was originally created.
To commit or discard changes to the zoning database in a VSAN, perform this task:
Releasing Zone Database Locks
To release the session lock on the zoning database on the switches in a VSAN, use the
no zone commit
vsan
command from the switch where the database was initially locked.
switch#
configuration terminal
switch(config)#
no zone commit vsan 2
If session locks remain on remote switches after using the
no zone commit vsan
command, you can use
the
clear zone lock vsan
command on the remote switches.
switch#
clear zone lock vsan 2
Note
We recommend using the
no zone commit vsan
command first to release the session lock in the fabric.
If that fails, use the
clear zone lock vsan
command on the remote switches where the session is still
locked.
