Aliremove - Brocade Communications Systems A7533A - Brocade 4Gb SAN Switch Base Command Reference Manual

aliRemove

Removes a member from a zone alias.
Synopsis aliremove "aliName", "member[;member...]"
Description Use this command to remove one or more members from an existing zone alias.
If all members are removed, the zone alias is deleted.
This command changes the defined configuration (see cfgShow). For the change to be preserved
across switch reboots, it must be saved to nonvolatile memory using the cfgSave command. For the
change to become effective, an appropriate zone configuration must be enabled using the
cfgEnable command.
Notes This command requires a Brocade Advanced Zoning license.
When FCS policy is enabled, this command can be issued only from the primary FCS switch.
Operands This command has the following operands:
"aliName"
"member"
This operand is required. The member list is located by an exact string match; therefore, it is
important to maintain the order when removing multiple members. For example, if a zone alias
contains "1,2; 1,3; 1,4", then removing"1,3; 1,4" succeeds but removing "1,4; 1,3" fails.
Examples Remove a World Wide Name from "array1":
