All of the devices from both LSANs should appear in the output. If the devices do not appear in the
output, issue the cfgShow command to verify your zone configuration. Use the cfgactvshow
command to display the zone configuration currently in effect. The following example illustrates the use
of cfgactvshow.
switch:admin> cfgactvshow
Effective configuration:
cfg:test
zone:lsan_san
10:00:00:00:00:03:00:00
10:00:00:00:00:01:00:00
zone:lsan_test
50:06:01:60:38:e0:0b:a4

Log into the FC router and run the lsanZoneShow command to verify FIDs and devices to be shared
among LSANs.

Migrating from an MP Router to a 400 MP Router

This section describes how to upgrade routers in your fabric with the least disruption, while providing better
performance and scalability. Improper implementation could lead to a change in the xlate domain IDs and
proxy device PIDs, which may cause disruption in the fabric.

Configurations

FC routers are deployed in different configurations in a fabric. Those configurations are listed in the
following pages and steps have been provided to integrate the 400 MP Router in a fabric with the HP
StorageWorks Multi-protocol Router. The figures in the following pages demonstrate how the 400 MP
Router should be integrated into a specified configuration, whether it is non-redundant, redundant, or in a
dual backbone configuration.

Non-redundant configuration

A 400 MP Router can be inserted into an existing metaSAN so that the old and new configuration form
one redundant configuration. Before implementing this design, configure the new router's EX_Ports and
fabric IDs with the same configuration parameters. The new configuration will look like
page 257.
Figure 15
shows an example of a simple non-redundant configuration.

Non-redundant router configuration
