The Sphinx build was issuing hundreds of warning for duplicate labels. The reason for this was because all of the tables we had were named as .rst files. This would cause Sphinx to process them twice and it would think there were duplicated sections. There were two ways this could be handled: 1) Exclude the tables directory from the docs build. 2) Name the files as they should have always been so they weren't build twice. Given that option 1 just masked the problem, I am implementing this patch using option 2. So, all the tables we are including in our documentation have been named from .rst to .inc and the .. include:: directives that use them have also been updated to use the new file name.

Fibre Channel Zone Manager
The Fibre Channel Zone Manager allows FC SAN Zone/Access control management in conjunction with Fibre Channel block storage. The configuration of Fibre Channel Zone Manager and various zone drivers are described in this section.
Configure Block Storage to use Fibre Channel Zone Manager
If Block Storage is configured to use a Fibre Channel volume driver
that supports Zone Manager, update cinder.conf to add the
following configuration options to enable Fibre Channel Zone
Manager.
Make the following changes in the
/etc/cinder/cinder.conf file.
To use different Fibre Channel Zone Drivers, use the parameters described in this section.
Note
When multi backend configuration is used, provide the
zoning_mode configuration option as part of the volume
driver configuration where volume_driver option is
specified.
Note
Default value of zoning_mode is None and
this needs to be changed to fabric to allow fabric
zoning.
Note
zoning_policy can be configured as
initiator-target or initiator
Brocade Fibre Channel Zone Driver
Brocade Fibre Channel Zone Driver performs zoning operations through HTTP, HTTPS, or SSH.
Set the following options in the cinder.conf
configuration file.
Configure SAN fabric parameters in the form of fabric groups as described in the example below:
Note
Define a fabric group for each fabric using the fabric names used in
fc_fabric_names configuration option as group name.
Note
To define a fabric group for a switch which has Virtual Fabrics
enabled, include the fc_virtual_fabric_id configuration
option and fc_southbound_protocol configuration option set
to HTTP or HTTPS in the fabric group. Zoning
on VF enabled fabric using SSH southbound protocol is not
supported.
System requirements
Brocade Fibre Channel Zone Driver requires firmware version FOS v6.4 or higher.
As a best practice for zone management, use a user account with
zoneadmin role. Users with admin role
(including the default admin user account) are limited to a
maximum of two concurrent SSH sessions.
For information about how to manage Brocade Fibre Channel switches, see the Brocade Fabric OS user documentation.
Cisco Fibre Channel Zone Driver
Cisco Fibre Channel Zone Driver automates the zoning operations through SSH. Configure Cisco Zone Driver, Cisco Southbound connector, FC SAN lookup service and Fabric name.
Set the following options in the cinder.conf
configuration file.
[fc-zone-manager]
zone_driver = cinder.zonemanager.drivers.cisco.cisco_fc_zone_driver.CiscoFCZoneDriver
fc_san_lookup_service = cinder.zonemanager.drivers.cisco.cisco_fc_san_lookup_service.CiscoFCSanLookupService
fc_fabric_names = CISCO_FABRIC_EXAMPLE
cisco_sb_connector = cinder.zonemanager.drivers.cisco.cisco_fc_zone_client_cli.CiscoFCZoneClientCLIConfigure SAN fabric parameters in the form of fabric groups as described in the example below:
Note
Define a fabric group for each fabric using the fabric names used in
fc_fabric_names configuration option as group name.
The Cisco Fibre Channel Zone Driver supports basic and enhanced
zoning modes.The zoning VSAN must exist with an active zone set name
which is same as the fc_fabric_names option.
System requirements
Cisco MDS 9000 Family Switches.
Cisco MDS NX-OS Release 6.2(9) or later.
For information about how to manage Cisco Fibre Channel switches, see the Cisco MDS 9000 user documentation.
