Deleting a zone configuration

Use the following procedure to delete a zone configuration:

1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account with admin permissions.

2. Enter the cfgDelete command, using the following syntax:

cfgdelete "cfgname"

3. Enter the cfgSave command to save the change to the defined configuration.

The cfgSave command ends and commits the current zoning transaction buffer to nonvolatile
memory. If a transaction is open on a different switch in the fabric when this command is run,
the transaction on the other switch is automatically aborted. A message displays on the other
switches to indicate that the transaction was aborted.

Example

switch:admin> cfgdelete "testcfg"
switch:admin> cfgsave

You are about to save the Defined zoning configuration. This action will only
save the changes on Defined configuration.
Do you want to save Defined zoning configuration only? (yes, y, no, n): [no] y

Abandoning zone configuration changes

Enter the cfgTransAbort command.

When this command is executed, all changes since the last save operation (performed with the
cfgSave, cfgEnable, or cfgDisable command) are cleared.

Example assuming that the removal of a member from zone1 was done in error

switch:admin> zoneremove "zone1","3,5"
switch:admin> cfgtransabort

Viewing all zone configuration information

If you do not specify an operand when executing the cfgShow command to view zone configurations,
then all zone configuration information (both defined and effective) displays. If there is an
outstanding transaction, then the newly edited zone configuration that has not yet been saved is
displayed. If there are no outstanding transactions, then the committed zone configuration displays.

Use the following procedure to view all zone configuration information:

1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account with admin permissions.

2. Enter the cfgShow command with no operands.

Example

switch:admin> cfgshow
Defined configuration:

cfg:

USA1

Blue_zone

cfg:

USA_cfg Purple_zone; Blue_zone

zone:

Blue_zone

1,1; array1; 1,2; array2

zone:

Purple_zone

1,0; loop1
