Just curious....those of you who admin your own zones/FC switches.
=20
How do you zone your drives/servers?
=20
for each HBA port, do you create a zone for the HBA port and all drives
visable to it?
ie. one HBA  and 3 drives =3D 1 zone?
=20
ZONE_A =3D Server1_HBA0 & DRIVE0 & DRIVE1 & DRIVE2
(then assuming SSO)
ZONE_B =3D Server2_HBA0 & DRIVE0 & DRIVE1 & DRIVE2
=20
or do you set up a zone for each device?
ie. one HBA and 3 drives =3D 3 zones.
=20
ZONE_A =3D SERVER1_HBA0 & DRIVE0
ZONE_B =3D SERVER1_HBA0 & DRIVE1
ZONE_C =3D SERVER1_HBA0 & DRIVE2
(again assuming SSO)
ZONE_D =3D SERVER2_HBA0 & DRIVE0
ZONE_E =3D SERVER2_HBA0 & DRIVE1
ZONE_F =3D SERVER2_HBA0 & DRIVE2
