Symptoms

When attempting to create a zone or a Device alias by pasting commands into the CLI, the command gets pasted in reverse order.

Example:

  • Command: zonecreate “NEW_HBA1_PowerMax”, “NEW_HBA1;PowerMax”
  • Reversed Order: NEW_HBA1; PowerMax_HBA1_PowerMaxzonecreate

 

Cause

This is caused due to incorrect double quotes being used, likely due to the keyboard Language settings.

As shown in the example above, there is a difference between “ ” and " "

 

Resolution

Ensure the correct double quotes (" ") are used.

Example:

zonecreate "NEW_HBA1_PowerMax", "NEW_HBA1; PowerMax"
