Operation: Disable Fabric Distribution
Status: Success
Legacy Zone Alias Configuration
You can import legacy zone alias configurations to use this feature without losing data if they satisfy the
following restrictions:
•
Each zone alias has only one member.
•
The member type is pWWN.
If any name or definition conflict exists, the zone aliases are not imported.
Ensure that you copy any required zone aliases to the device alias database as required by your configuration.
When an import operation is complete, the modified alias database is distributed to all other switches in the
physical fabric when you perform the commit operation. If you do not want to distribute the configuration to
other switches in the fabric, you can perform the abort operation and the merge changes are completely
discarded.
