A Manual Procedure
Locate all clients that have not been explicitly placed into a zone. Create a plan to explicitly place these clients into the correct zone(s) and after doing so the plan will include the modification of the default zone visibility setting to “none”. Obtain CM approval of the plan and then, following the plan, reconfigure the SAN to allow for the default zone visibility setting to be set to “none”.
