This topic provides fibre channel zoning considerations for the SAN Volume Controller.
If you are using the master console with the SAN Volume Controller, you need to create a new fibre channel switch zone that contains the master console and all of the SAN Volume Controller fibre channel ports.
For hosts, use switch zoning to ensure that each host fibre-channel port is zoned to exactly one fibre-channel port of each SAN Volume Controller node in the cluster. The SAN Volume Controller and the master console must exist in both zones.
For more information on zoning your switches, refer to IBM TotalStorage SAN Volume Controller Configuration Guide.
