Usage guidelines
Only FCF switches and VSANs operating in FCF mode support this command.
A zoning mode switchover causes a zone distribution to ensure zoning mode consistency across the
fabric. Before enabling the enhanced zoning mode, make sure all switches in the fabric support this
mode.
After you change the zoning mode, the switch distributes the change to the entire fabric. If the distribution
fails, the system prints a log message, and the change takes effect only on the local switch. In this case,
to ensure zoning mode consistency across the fabric, manually trigger a complete distribution.
If the size of the active zone set exceeds the system limit in basic zoning mode, enhanced zoning cannot
be switched to basic zoning.
Examples
# Enable the enhanced zoning mode in VSAN 2.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] vsan 2
[Sysname-vsan2] zone mode enhanced
The zoning database in this switch would be distributed throughout the fabric. Continue?
