Zones and zoneset after remove ISL

chelperez

Level 1

Hello to everyone I hope you can help me with my situation, the scenario is the following: 

 

We have 4 switches, 2 MDS9509 and 2 MDS9513, there is an ISL from 1 MDS9509 to 1 MDS9513 and the same situation with the other pair. Each of the MDS9509 has an active zoneset that was distributed to their corresponding MDS9513 and now we want to remove the ISL between the switches.  

 

If a run the command "show zoneset brief" on each MDS9513 it doesn't display the active zoneset, if a run the same command on each "MDS9509" it displays the active zoneset. 

 

My questions:

What is going to happend to the configuration on MDS9513 after the ISL is removed?

Do I have to create another zoneset in each MDS9513 to avoid lost connectivity? 

 

Thanks in advance.

Please post the output of the following commands for both switches, with the ISL link up:

show zoneset

show zoneset active

show zone status  (most likely you will see below ! only the active but not the full zoneset is propagated)

 

switch# config t show zone status

VSAN: 1 default-zone: deny distribute: active only Interop: default

    mode: basic merge-control: allow session: none

    hard-zoning: enabled

Default zone:

    qos: low broadcast: disabled ronly: disabled

Full Zoning Database :

    Zonesets:3  Zones:7 Aliases: 9

Active Zoning Database :

    Name: ZoneSet1  Zonesets:1  Zones:2
