Configuration Services and bundled with each B-series switch.
Description
Use this command to create a QuickLoop.
A QuickLoop name must begin with a letter and be followed by any number of letters, digits, and
underscore characters. Names are case-sensitive, for example, Qloop_1 indicates a different QuickLoop
than qloop_1. Spaces are ignored.
The QuickLoop member list must have one or two members; an empty list is not allowed.
When a configuration is enabled, all QuickLoops defined in the configuration must resolve to a maximum
of two switch worldwide names.
Zone alias names entered as members of this QuickLoop must be defined with WWNs. Zone alias names
that are defined by domain and port number, or AL_PA are not accepted as members of the QuickLoop.
NOTE: When security is enabled, this command can be issued only from the primary FCS switch.
Use this command only with Fabric OS 3.x systems in the fabric; QuickLoop is not supported in Fabric
OS 5.x.
