Zoning for FC-VI ports
For each DR group in the MetroCluster, you must configure two zones for the FC-VI connections that allow controller-to-controller traffic. These zones contain the FC switch ports connecting to the controller module FC-VI ports. These zones are Quality of Service (QoS) zones.
A QoS zone name starts with the prefix QOSHid_, followed by a user-defined string to differentiate it from a regular zone. These QoS zones are the same regardless of the model of FibreBridge bridge that is being used.
Each zone contains all the FC-VI ports, one for each FC-VI cable from each controller. These zones are configured for high priority.
The following tables show the FC-VI zones for two DR groups.
