Is there any risk in partitioning fiber optic switches into zones

Using the WWNN in a zone can cause multipathing issues where there are too number of paths between a server and storage. A possible refinement is to keep destinations isolated from each other in “single-initiator, single-target” zoning. An administrator can partition the network into logical groups of devices through zoning. This chapter describes zoning and provides. This is done to avoid a transitional state where the All Access policy might lead to excessive RSCN activity; with extreme cases having the potential for additional adverse effects. Without zoning, it would be very common for a problem on one host to be able to affect every host in the fabric; without zoning the. In storage net...
