Brocade alias creation
hi guys
the clients environment has zones created with out any aliases for the server HBAs or array FAs/SPs.
I tried to create aliases with alicreate or from web tools. it did show if i do a nodefind on any wwn. The question i am throwing is how to make these aliases visible on web tools.If we click on zones in zone admin i couldnt see any associated aliases in the right pane.
[I need it so that when ever i create a zone i can add the aliases directly in to the zone rather than wwn of hba or array.]
Please reply if you dont understand what i am asking abt

That's what I'd do ... add at first .. and remove when you you are sure that everything still works ..

You need to create aliases and then do a manually replace of the wwns with the just created aliases. Add the alias, commit, remove the wwn, commit it what I would do.
I'm not sure if you can add the alias and remove the wwn and then do 1 commit.
