Disabling A Zone Configuration; Deleting A Zone Configuration - HP SN3000B Administrator's Manual

Example

Disabling a zone configuration

When you disable the current zone configuration, the fabric returns to non-zoning mode. All devices
can then access each other or not, depending on the default zone access mode setting.
NOTE
If the default zoning mode is set to All Access and more than 120 devices are connected to the
fabric, you cannot disable the zone configuration because this would enable All Access mode and
cause a large number of requests to the switch. In this situation, set the default zoning mode to No
Access prior to disabling the zone configuration. See
information about setting this mode to No Access.
The following procedure ends and commits the current zoning transaction buffer to nonvolatile
memory. If a transaction is open on a different switch in the fabric when this procedure is run, the
transaction on the other switch is automatically aborted. A message displays on the other switches
to indicate that the transaction was aborted.
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account with admin permissions.
2. Enter the cfgdisable command, using the following syntax:
3. Enter y at the prompt.
Example
