Creating an iSCSI FC zone
5. Save the WWN information, which you will use for the zoneCreate command.
At this point you are ready to create the iSCSI gateway service zone with FC targets and initiators as
members of the zone. To simplify the process of creating the zone, begin by creating a zone alias. A
"zone alias" is a logical group of WWNs or ports, which eliminates the need for long lists of
individual zone member names. For more information about zone aliases, see "Creating and
Managing Zone Aliases" in the Fabric OS Administrator's Guide.
To create a zone alias
1. Connect and log in to the switch as admin.
2. Enter the aliCreate command.
3. Enter the cfgSave command to save the change to the defined configuration:
You can create aliases, add and remove members from an alias, and delete aliases. These
operations function the same way with iSCSI as they do without. To learn more about these
operations, see "About Zones" in the Fabric OS Administrator's Guide and the aliCreate command
in the Fabric OS Command Reference.
To create the iSCSI FC zone
1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
2. Enter the zoneCreate command.
