Unless the transaction is closed, the new changes are not applied to the fabric. A transaction is aborted by the cfgTransAbort command, or when another switch closes its transaction. When a transaction is closed, all new (from the transactional buffer) and existing zoning information is saved to memory and applied to the fabric. HP StorageWorks Zoning Version 2. 6. 1 User Guide 25 Using Zoning 26 HP StorageWorks Zoning Version 2. 6. 1 User Guide Using QuickLoop Zones 4 In addition to zoning fabrics, covered in Chapter 3, zoning also allows you to zone QuickLoops. By partitioning selected devices within a QuickLoop into a QuickLoop zone, you can enhance management of a Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL) in a legacy environment. In QuickLoop zoning, devices within a QuickLoop can be partitioned off within that QuickLoop to form QuickLoop zones. In other words, a QuickLoop zone is a subset of a QuickLoop and can include only QuickLoop devices. Fabric zones and QuickLoop zones are independent of each other; both types of zone can coexist in the same zone configuration; QuickLoop devices can be included within a fabric zone configuration. QuickLoop Zoning Advantages In addition to all the advantages of fabric zoning--security, customization of environments, and optimization of IT resources--QuickLoop zoning can protect devices from disruption by unrelated devices during a critical process; for example, during a tape backup session. In a QuickLoop with zoning enabled, transmission of the loop initialization primitive (LIP) signal and loop initialization are controlled by the switch; the LIP is transmitted only to looplets within the affected zone; other looplets on the QuickLoop are not affected. In this way, unwanted disruption to devices can be controlled. QuickLoop Zones QuickLoop zones are hardware enforced; switch hardware prevents unauthorized data transfer between ports within the zone allowing devices to be partitioned into zones to restrict system access to selected devices. Once devices are included in a zone, they are visible only to other devices within that zone. HP StorageWorks Zoning Version 2. 6. 1 User Guide 27 Using QuickLoop Zones QuickLoop zone members are designated by looplet (port number) or by Arbitrated Loop Physical Address (AL_PA). There are 126 unique AL_PAs per QuickLoop; a QuickLoop zone can contain no more than 126 addresses. Configuring QuickLoop Zones To configure QuickLoop zoning, follow these steps: 1. A QuickLoop is comprised of FL_ports on one or two switches within the fabric. To create a QuickLoop, specify a QuickLoop name (called a qloop for zoning), followed by a list of AL_PAs to be included. QuickLoop names define the switch (or pair of switches) that make up the QuickLoop. A QuickLoop name must be a unique alphanumeric string beginning with an alphabetical character. A QuickLoop zone is a group of FL_ports or AL_PAs that can communicate with each other. To be a QuickLoop zone, every member must be either a looplet (FL_port) or an AL_PA within a single QuickLoop. QuickLoop zones can overlap looplets, but they must be confined to a single QuickLoop. QuickLoop zones are hardware enforced, but zones within a single looplet are not enforceable; HP recommends, therefore, that you do not partition devices within a looplet into different zones. To define a QuickLoop zone, specify the list of members to be included and assign a unique zone name. A QuickLoop zone name must be a unique alphanumeric string beginning with an alphabetical character.

Names are case sensitive; for example, Zone_1 indicates a different zone than zone_1. The zone member list must have at least one member; empty lists are not allowed. [. . . ]
