Maintaining zone objects

Although you can use the cfgDelete command to delete a zone configuration, there is a quicker and
easier way to perform the same task with the zone object commands (zoneObjectExpunge,
zoneObjectCopy, and zoneObjectRename). You can also copy and rename zone objects. When you
copy a zone object, the resulting object has the same type as the original. Deleting a zone object also
removes the object from any member lists of other objects. You can rename objects for all zone object
types.
To copy a zone object:
1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
2. Enter the cfgShow command to view the zone configuration objects you want to copy.
