Hi,
I have two MDS 9148s in a Production. One MDS is in VSAN 2 and the second in VSAN 3. Both have zoning and zone sets configured and are not connected ie no ISL between them.
I have two MDS 9148s in a DR Site and want to link MDS1 in Production to MDS1 in the DR site. I also want to link MDS2 in Prod to MDS2 in the DR site.
The ISLs will be used for SAN to SAN replication traffic and I will have to Zone SAN interfaces in Prod and DR to each other for partnership. Separate Zoning and ZoneSets are in use in each site.
How do I go about configuring the pairs of MDS switches so that I can Zone interfaces on MDS1 in Prod and MDS1 in DR?
Do I have to use the same ZoneSet between MDS1 in Prod and MDS1 in DR?
Is there a way to do it without distributing the ZoneSet between MDS1 in Prod and MDS1 in DR?
I want to set it up so that if MDS switches were shutdown in the DR site that they wouldn't have any affect on the Production fabric, except for SAN to SAN traffic obviously.
Should I be using enhanced Zoning?
