252 Administering advanced zoning

Zoning database size and zone merging

Table 61

presents zoning database size limitations for various Fabric OS release versions. The maximum

size of a zone database is the upper limit for the defined configuration. It is determined by the amount of

flash memory available for storing the defined configuration.

Before linking two switches together, it is important that you know the zone database limit of adjacent

switches. For example, when switches running Fabric OS 3.2, 4.4.0, or 5.1.0 discover that the zone merge

database is larger than its pre-determined zone database size limit, they issue a reject notification before

symmetrically segmenting their own ends of the ISL, thereby preventing the new switch from joining the

fabric.

NOTE:

Fabric OS 5.2.0 and later support a zoning database size of 1 MB. To support a 1 MB zoning

database, the entire fabric must be upgraded to 5.2.0 or later. If any pre-5.2.0 switches are part of the

fabric, the maximum zone database size is 256 KB. If the zoning database size exceeds 256 KB, switches

not upgraded to Fabric OS 5.2.0 or later are segmented out of the fabric. Use the

cfgSize

command to

display the zoning database size.

Symmetrical segmentation occurs when both ends of an ISL are shut down. Subsequently, no frames are

exchanged between those two switches.
Asymmetrical segmentation not only prevents frames from being exchanged between switches, but also

causes routing inconsistencies.
The best way to avoid either type of segmentation is to know the zone database size limit of adjacent

switches. The following tables provide the expected behavior based on different database sizes after a

zone merge is specified.
