Which two options describe possible causes of the failure shown in the exhibit? (Choose two.)
A. Two switches have the same zone set name, but different zone names and different zone members.
B. Two switches have the same zone set name and zone name, but different zone members.
C. The zoneset export interface command is used for the wrong interface.
D. The zoneset merge command can only be executed for VSAN 1.
E. The adjacent switch is down at the point of the zone merge.
Correct Answer: AB
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
When merging switch fabrics, you must ensure that the zones in both active zone sets have unique names, or that any zones with the same name have exactly the same members. If either of these conditions is violated the E port connecting the two fabrics will appear in an isolated state.
For example, two switches may have the same zone set name, and the same zone names, but different zone members. As a result, the VSAN is isolated on the TE port that connects the two switches.
This issue can be resolved by doing one of the following:
Modify the zone members on both zone sets to match and eliminate the conflict.
Deactivate the zone set on one of the switches and restart the zone merge process.
Explicitly import or export a zone set between the switches to synchronize them.
