Upgrade, Downgrade, And Ha Considerations For Lsan Zone Binding - HP A7533A - Brocade 4Gb SAN Switch Base Administrator's Manual

The command fcrLsanMatrix
cache.
The FC router matrix and the LSAN fabric matrix are used together to determine which fabrics can access
each other, with the LSAN fabric matrix providing more specific binding.

Upgrade, downgrade, and HA considerations for LSAN zone binding

When a CP is upgraded from Fabric OS 6.0.x or 5.3.x to 6.1.0, the LSAN zone binding and handling
remains the same. Fabric-wide distribution does not occur until the database is changed and activated.
When a CP is downgraded from Fabric OS 6.1.0, where the FC router matrix feature is activated to 6.0.x
or 5.3.x firmware that does not support that feature, the firmwareDownload script prompts you to delete the
FC router matrix binding entries prior to the firmware downgrade.
If the active CP is running Fabric OS 6.1.0 and the standby CP is running 6.0.x or 5.3.x, the FC router
matrix feature is not activated. You get an error message if you try to update the FC router matrix
information.
If the active CP is running Fabric OS 6.1.0 and the FC router matrix is activated and the standby CP
running 6.0.x or 5.3.x comes online later, the active CP does not establish HA sync with the standby CP
during the sync dump operation.
To set up LSAN zone binding:
1. Log in to the FC router as admin.
2. Issue the following command to add a pair of FC routers that can access each other:
FCR:Admin > fcrlsanmatrix --add -fcr wwn1 wwn2
where wwn1 and wwn2 are the WWNs of the FC routers.
3. Issue the following command to add a pair of edge fabrics that can access each other:
FCR:Admin > fcrlsanmatrix --add -lsan fid1 fid2
where fid1 and fid2 are the fabric IDs of the edge fabrics.
4. Issue the following command to apply the changes persistently:
FCR:Admin > fcrlsanmatrix --apply -all
To view the LSAN zone binding matrixes:
1. Log on to the FC router as admin.
2. Issue the following command to view the FC router matrix:
FCR:Admin > fcrlsanmatrix --fabricview -fcr
For example:
FCR:Admin > fcrlsanmatrix --fabricview -fcr
