Importing Zone Sets
Note Importing from one switch and exporting from another switch can lead to isolation again.
You can import active zone sets (do a Merge Fail Recovery) if the cause of an ISL failure is a zone merge
failure.
To import an active zone set, follow these steps:
Step 1 From Fabric Manager, choose Zone > Merge Fail Recovery from the Zone menu.
You see the Zone Merge Failure Recovery dialog box.
Step 2 Select the Import Active Zoneset radio button.
Step 3 Select the switch from which to import the zone set information from the drop-down list.
Step 4 Select the VSAN from which to import the zone set information from the drop-down list.
Step 5 Select the interface to use for the import process.
Step 6 Click OK to import the active zone set, or click Close to close the dialog box without importing the
active zone set.
