Dell Storage Center SCv2000 and SCv2020 Storage System Deployment Guide

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.

Include all Storage Center virtual WWNs in a single zone.
Include all Storage Center physical WWNs in a single zone.
For each host server HBA port, create a zone that includes the single HBA WWN and multiple Storage Center virtual WWNs on the same switch.
For Fibre Channel replication:
- Include all Storage Center physical WWNs from Storage Center system A and Storage Center system B in a single zone.
- Include all Storage Center physical WWNs of Storage Center system A and the virtual WWNs of Storage Center system B on the particular fabric.
- Include all Storage Center physical WWNs of Storage Center system B and the virtual WWNs of Storage Center 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.
