Zoning and Partnering with QuickLoops

In addition to zoning fabrics, explained in Chapter 3, Using Zoning, Zoning can also be used to

create QuickLoop partnerships and to zone QuickLoops. For JBODs, private hosts, and other

private loop devices, QuickLoop allows arbitrated loops to be attached to a fabric. For example, the

QuickLoop and Zoning combination can allow a private host to participate in a Storage Area

Network (SAN). By forming a partnership between the host switch and target switch, selected

devices within a QuickLoop can be partitioned into a QuickLoop zone, as shown in Figure 4-1.

Management of Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL) is achieved using this partnering and

QuickLoop zoning.

For more information about the QuickLoop feature, refer to the QuickLoop User's Guide.

Fabric zones and QuickLoop zones are independent of each other; both types of zones can co-exist

in the same zone configuration and QuickLoop devices can be included within a fabric zone

configuration. But, while devices within a QuickLoop can be seen by a public host, devices within

each QuickLoop are only visible to devices within their own QuickLoop. Each QuickLoop

partnership is established between a maximum of two switches.
