zoningcli provides a CLI tool for configuring zoning on Oracle SPARC T3-1 servers with the following qualifications:
Runs Oracle Solaris OS.
Has a 16-disk backplane (SAS-2 expander).
If your Oracle SPARC T3-1 server is using the two on-board hard disk controllers, the 16–disk backplane must be zoned.
If the server is using the SGX-SAS6-R-INT-Z SAS2 internal PCIe RAID HBA, the 16 disk backplane must not be zoned.
zoningcli can split zoning into two separate zones:
Zone A (group 10) has the first 8 disks (PHY 0 - 7) and the first controller (PHY 20 -23)
Zone B (group 11) has the last 8 disks (PHY 8 - 15) and the second controller (PHY 16-19)
Before attempting to change the server's zoning state, read the product notes pertaining to the 16 disk backplane.
You must have root permission to run zoningcli.
