Lucent zoning steps for DRM
Use the following procedure to zone the OptiStar EdgeSwitch for the DRM FCIP
solution.
Zone planning
Decide which logical fabric subsets (or zones) should be created, by recognizing
that any two or more devices requiring access to each other must be included in a
common zone. DRM requires two kinds of zones: peer-to-peer remote connection
(PPRC) zones and host bus adapter (HBA) zones.
A PPRC zone is required for each fabric in which the local and remote PPRC
controller ports are zoned to access each other across the fabric. HBA zones are
also required where each HBA device is configured in a zone with its
corresponding host controller port.
Verify connections
Establish the fiber connection between the local and remote GigE ports on the
GigE modules of the OptiStar units. If the connections are working properly, all
devices to be configured into zones appear in the OptiStar’s CLI management
window as members that can be added to a zoneset. If all SAN devices are not
included in the member list of World Wide Names (WWNs), recheck the
port-to-port connections to and from each attached device before attempting Step
4 below. After all attached devices have good connections, the OptiStar zoning
can be implemented using the following steps:
1. Log on to the CLI at the management level for the FCIP network module for
which you would like to set up zoning.
2. From the FCIP Network Module CLI Root menu, type the following:
config zone wwn zoneset
The zoneset menu is displayed.
3. From the zoneset menu (config/zone/wwn/zoneset), create empty zonesets
using the following command:
add <ZoneSetName>
where ZoneSetName is the name of the empty zoneset.
For example:
(config/zone/wwn/zoneset)> add Backup
