Command History
Usage Guidelines An alias is a collection of Fibre Channel devices, such as switches, initiators, storage and other
SN 5428-2 Storage Routers, that can be zoned together. An alias is not a zone and cannot include a zone
or another alias as a member.
Use this command to delete an entire alias and all its members from the zoning database, or to delete a
specified member WWPN from an alias.
If the alias is a member of the active zone set, the alias will not be removed from the active zone set until
the active zone set is deactivated. Use the no zoneset command with the enable keyword to deactivate
the active zone set.
Caution If the storage router is connected to the FC switched fabric, all zoning changes (including the deletion
of an alias) are immediately propagated to other SN 5428-2 Storage Routers and switches in the fabric.
See Chapter 5, “Configuring Fibre Channel Interfaces,” for more information about FC fabric zoning.
Examples The following example deletes the alias named AliasFoo and all its members. The alias will be removed
from all zone sets in which it is used.
[SN5428-2A]# delete fcalias AliasFoo
alias-name The name of the alias.
member wwpn
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The WWPN of the alias member.
Note WWPN address notation is represented by 16 hex digits. The digits
may be separated by colons. When entering WWPN addresses,
colons can be omitted or placed anywhere in the address notation as
long as they do not leave one character without a partner character.
