WWN Zoning Guidelines

When WWN zoning is configured, a device may reside on any port, or change physical ports and still be visible, because the switch is seeking a WWN.

List of guidelines for WWN zoning.
  • Include all Storage Center virtual World Wide Port Names (WWPNs) in a single zone.
  • Include all Storage Center physical World Wide Port Names (WWPNs) in a single zone.
  • For each host server HBA port, create a zone that includes the HBA port WWPN and multiple Storage Center virtual WWPNs on the same switch.
  • For Fibre Channel replication from Storage Center system A to Storage Center system B:
    • Include all Storage Center physical WWPNs from system A and system B in a single zone.
    • Include all Storage Center physical WWPNs of system A and the virtual WWPNs of system B on the particular fabric.
    • Include all Storage Center physical WWPNs of system B and the virtual WWPNs of system A on the particular fabric.
    • NOTE: Some ports may not be used or dedicated for replication, however ports that are used must be in these zones.
