Modify task

Use this task to make changes to an existing zone group, including changing the zone group
name, and adding or removing disk drives or ports.

IMPORTANT:

When using zoned SAS storage enclosures, before deleting disk drives from a

zone group, logical units associated with disk drives in that zone group must be deleted. If the
zone group has disk drives in bays that are configured as part of a logical unit, there may be I/O
problems and the controller may send error messages to the system logs about an illegal drive
movement.

To perform this task, expand the display for the active switch in the navigation tree, select a zone
group, and then click Modify.

Options for this task include:

Name—Type the new name for the zone group (must be unique, up to 16 characters, no
spaces).

Zoning Mode—Select Switch Port or Drive Bay to change the zoning mode.

Switch ports or drive bays—Depending on the type of zone group, select the ports or drive
bays to add or remove them from the zone group. To add an item to the zone group, click
an available (white) item. (The status is automatically updated, changing the color from white
to blue.) To remove an item from the zone group, click the already included (blue) item. (The
status is automatically updated, changing the color from blue to white).

For zoned SAS storage enclosures, if populated drive bays are added to a zone group, they
will now be available for configuration and use with the array configuration utility.
