Using the Zoning Wizard

The Zoning Wizard is a series of dialogs that leads you through the process of
zoning a fabric. To open the Zoning Wizard, open the Wizards menu in the
faceplate display, and select Zoning Wizard.
The Zoning Wizard helps you with the two most typical reasons for zoning:
Zoning Windows servers storage
Assign storage to servers.
To solve these problems, there must be at least one target and at least one
initiator in the name server. Windows servers do not share devices well, but
sometimes they must share devices, such as a tape drive. The wizard helps you
define which devices are sharable and which ones are not. Once a device is in a
Windows group, it can no longer be in any other group.
