Configuring and Controlling Your Datacenter
Zoning the host and storage ports
Now that Host l82ar156 and Symmetrix port FA-3D Port 0 are configured in the same
virtual fabric (VSAN 0006), the administrator can zone them together in an active zone
set, so that I/O between the host and array can occur.
Creating a Zone and Adding Member Ports
To create a new zone and populate it with the required host and FA ports, the
administrator:
1. In the Console tree, expands the folders Connectivity, Fabrics, Mainstreet_3800
[Fabric], Planned VSANs, VSAN0006.
2. Right-clicks the Planned Zones folder and selects New > Zone (Figure 123 on
page 141).

zoning policy from the Zoning Policy menu (Figure 124 on page 142).
