Zone the compute hosts to the storage controllers:

1. From a web browser, start the Brocade Web Tools by entering the switch’s IP address in the address bar.

If Java issues prevent you from accessing Web Tools from the browser, invoke the utility by running the following command:

javaws "http://<switch ip address>/switchExplorer_installed.html"

2. Create a zone configuration:
   1. Log in to Web Tools with administrator credentials.
   2. Select Configure > Zone Admin.
   3. In the Zone Administration window, click the Zone Config tab, and then click New Zone Config.
   4. In the Create New Config dialog box, enter a name for the configuration and click OK.
3. Create aliases for the front-end FC ports of the storage controller:
   1. In the Zone Administration window, click the Alias tab, and then click New Alias.
   2. In the Create New Alias dialog box, enter a name for the new alias—Unity_SPA_P0, for example—and click OK.
   3. Under Member Selection List, expand Ports & Attached Devices to view the nested elements.
   4. Expand the port that contains the WWN for the alias being created, as shown in the following figure.

Note: You can find WWNs for the front-end ports of the Unity XT x80 system in Unisphere storage management.

6. Repeat the preceding steps to create aliases for all front-end ports of the storage controller.
7. Click Action > Save Config to save the configuration changes.

4. Create aliases for the WWNs of the compute hosts:
   1. In the Zone Administration window, click the Alias tab, and then click New Alias.
   2. In the Create New Alias dialog box, enter a name for the new alias–CMPT_SVR_P1, for example—and click OK.
   3. Under Member Selection List, expand Ports & Attached Devices to view the nested elements.
   4. Expand the port that contains the WWN for the alias being created.
   5. Click the port WWN, and then click the right arrow to add the WWN to Alias Members.

Note: You can find server host bus adapter (HBA) WWNs in the hardware inventory of the iDRAC console.

6. Repeat the preceding steps to create aliases for all compute host HBAs.
7. Click Action > Save Config to save the configuration changes.

5. Create zones:
   1. In Web Tools, click Configure > Zone Admin.
   2. In the Zone Administration window, click the Zone tab, and then click New Zone.
   3. In the Create New Zone dialog box, enter a name for the new zone, and click OK.
   4. Under Member Selection List, expand Aliases to view the nested elements.
   5. Select all aliases of the Unity XT x80 storage ports and the alias of the server WWN to be included in the zone.
   6. Click the right arrow to add the aliases to Zone Members.
   7. Select Zoning Actions > Save Config to save the configuration changes.
6. Enable configuration:
   1. Click the Zone Config tab.
   2. Under Member Selection List, expand Zones to view the nested elements.
   3. Select all the zones that you created for the compute hosts.
   4. Click the right arrow to move the selected zones in Member Selection List to Zone Config Members.
   5. Click Save Config.

This process takes a few seconds.

6. Click Enable Config and select the name of the zone configuration.
7. Click OK to enable the zone configuration.
