number

An Admin Domain can be specified by a number. Valid values include 0
through 255. AD0 and AD255 are always active. AD0 cannot be specified
with --activate, --deactivate or --delete actions. AD255 can be specified
only with --exec, --show and --validate actions.

For all command iterations, with the exception of ad --create, the Admin
Domain is specified either by a name or a number. For ad --create, both
name and number can be specified: for example, ad --create test_ad/10 -d
“100,5; 100,1”.

-d “dev_list”

Specifies the list of devices in an Admin Domain, in quotation marks.
Separate each entry in the device list with a semicolon (;). Valid formats
include:

D,PI

Uses existing zone D,PI member types. Benefits include:

•

Grants port control and zoning on the switch port and the devices
attached to that port.

•

PI can be specified as a range; for example, D,[0-34]. The port index
range is expanded and stored internally.

•

The same D,PI members can be specified in more than one Admin
Domain.

Device WWN

Uses traditional zone WWN member types. Benefits include:

•

Supports node or port WWNs.

•

End-device members, whose WWNs are used in an Admin Domain
definition, need not be online when the Admin Domain is created (similar
to a zoneCreate operation).

•

Provides rights to zone the devices.

•

Provides administrative view rights to the switch port the device is
connected to.

-s “switch_list”

Specifies the list of switches in an Admin Domain. The list must be enclosed
in quotation marks. Separate each entry in the switch list with a semicolon (;).
Specify the switch in one of the following formats:

Switch WWN

World wide name of the switch.

Domain ID

Any switch member specified in Domain ID format is converted into a switch
WWN-based on the current fabric information. Operations with switch list fail
if the domain ID to switch WWN lookup fails.

Membership in an AD switch_list grants switch administrative operations
such as switchDisable, switchEnable, reboot, ad, etc. on the switch.
Ownership of a switch implicitly provides port control capability on all its
ports, but no zoning control.

“command_list”

Specifies one or more commands to execute in an Admin Domain context.
This operand is valid only with the --exec option.

new_ad_id

Specifies a new Admin Domain name or number. This operand is valid only
with the --rename option. Format is the same as ad_id.

-i

Displays the implicit members of AD0. This operand is valid only with the
--

show option.
