Creating a TI zone
18
To create a TI zone in the edge fabric with failover enabled and the state set to activated (default
settings):
switch:admin> zone --create -t ti bluezone -p "1,1; 1,8; 2,-1; 3,-1"
To create a TI zone in the backbone fabric with failover enabled and the state set to activated
(default settings):
switch:admin> zone --create -t ti backbonezone -p "10:00:00:04:1f:03:16:f2;
1,1; 1,4; 2,7; 2,1; 10:00:00:04:1f:03:18:f1, 10:00:00:04:1f:04:06:e2"
To create TI zones in a logical fabric, such as the one shown in Figure 59 on page 413:
Log in to the logical switch FID1, Domain 7 and create a TI zone in the logical fabric with FID=1:
LS1> zone --create -t ti -o f "ti_zone1" -p "8,8; 8,1; 3,3; 3,10; 5,16; 5,8;
9,5; 9,9"
Then create a TI zone in the base fabric, as described in “Creating a TI zone in a base fabric”.
Remember that your changes are not enforced until you enter the cfgEnable command, as shown
here:
switch:admin> cfgenable "USA_cfg"
You are about to enable a new zoning configuration.
This action will replace the old zoning configuration with the
current configuration selected.
If the update includes changes to one or more traffic isolation zones, the
update may result in localized disruption to traffic on ports associated with
the traffic isolation zone changes
Do you want to enable 'USA_cfg' configuration (yes, y, no, n): [no] y
zone config "USA_cfg" is in effect

Creating a TI zone in a base fabric
1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
2. Create a “dummy” zone configuration in the base fabric. For example:
zone --create "z1", "1,1"
cfgcreate "base_config", z1
3. Enter the zone --create command to create the TI zone in the base fabric:
zone --create -t objtype -o f name -p "portlist"
The disable failover option is not supported in base fabrics.
4. Enter the cfgEnable command to reactivate your current effective configuration and enforce
the TI zones.
cfgenable "base_config"
Example
The following example creates TI zones in the base fabric shown in Figure 60 on page 413:
BS_D1> zonecreate "z1", "1,1"
BS_D1> cfgcreate "base_cfg", z1
BS_D1> zone --create -t ti -o f "ti_zone2" -p "1,3; 1,10; 7,12; 7,14; 2,16;
2,8"
BS_D1> cfgenable "base_config"
