Switch Manager
47HP StorageWorks 2/8q Fibre Channel Switch Management User Guide
The zoning limits for a fabric are as follows:
■ MaxZoneSets is 256—The maximum number of zone sets that can be configured on the
switch. This is enforced during the configuration of zoning and during a zoning database
merge from the fabric.
■ MaxZones is 256—The maximum number of zones that can be configured on the switch.
This is enforced during the configuration of zoning and during a zoning database merge
from the fabric.
■ MaxAliases is 256—The maximum number of aliases that can be configured on the
switch. This is enforced during the configuration of zoning and during a zoning database
merge from the fabric.
■ MaxTotalMembers is 2000—The maximum number of total zone and alias members that
can be configured on the switch. This is enforced during the configuration of zoning and
during a zoning database merge from the fabric. Aliases are considered zone members
since they can be added to a zone just like a normal zone member.
■ MaxZonesInZoneSets is 1000—The maximum number of zone linkages to zone sets that
can be configured on the switch. This is enforced during the configuration of zoning and
during a zoning database merge from the fabric. Every time a zone is added to a zoneset
this constitutes a linkage.
■ MaxMembersPerZone is 2000—The maximum number of zone members that can be
added to any zone on the switch. This is enforced during the configuration of zoning and
during a zoning database merge from the fabric. Aliases are considered zone members
when added to a zone.
■ MaxMembersPerAlias is 2000—The maximum number of zone members that can be
added to any alias on the switch. This is enforced during the configuration of zoning and
during a zoning database merge from the fabric.
Zoning configuration
You can set the Interop Auto Save and Default Visibility zoning configuration parameters
using Switch Manager. The Interop Auto Save parameter determines whether changes to the
active zone set that a switch receives from another switch in the fabric is saved to permanent
memory on that switch. Interop Auto Save is not supported at this time. The Default Visibility
parameter permits or prohibits communication among ports/devices when there is no active
zone set. See “Using the Zoning Config dialog box” on page 48 for information about zoning
configuration using Switch Manager.
