Hi.

I have two brocade switches ( The first thing is that both switches have the same Domain ID, I know that I need to change this before trying to make the ISL and so, but does this change affects production? It's an online change or is there any disruption?

I found this procedure to do the change, can anyone tell me if that is ok?

On the switch which I want to be secondary:

switch:admin> switchDisable

switch:admin> configure

Fabric parameters (yes, y, no, n): [no] y

Domain: (1..239) [1] 2

Ctrl-d

switch:admin> switchEnable

After this, there is the need to create a new Zone Config, as each enabled config on each switch is different and I want to merge them clean, so I really want to sincronize all configurations on both switches. I create the new Zone Config equally, same name and clone all zoning information independently, then I'm planning to use de Zone Merger to sincronize both configurations so I have the two switches exactly with the some config (clearing all conflicts - just found one).

The activation of this new Zone Config will disrupt communications with production hosts?

Is this the way to success?? hehehe I've reviewed all procedures and I'm think to be on the good road. Any suggestion will be appreciated.
