add [zone] [member_list]
Specifies one or more ports/devices given by [members] to add to the zone named [zone]. Use
a <space> to delimit aliases and ports/devices in [member_list]. A zone can have a maximum
of 2000 members. [member_list] can have any of the following formats:
• Domain ID and port number pair (Domain ID, Port Number). Domain IDs can be 97-127; port
numbers can be 0–-255.
• 16-character hexadecimal world wide port name (WWPN) with the format
xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx.
• Alias name
The application verifies that the [members] format is correct, but does not validate that such a
member exists.
