Abstract
A mechanism is provided in a data processing system for selective zone control session termination. A zone control service executing in the data processing system creates logical zoning definitions in memory for each client session. Each client session attempts to make changes to a fabric. Responsive to the zone control service receiving a request to commit a session from a given client and changes made by the given client during the session not conflicting with changes made by another client in a concurrent session based on the logical zoning definitions, the zone control service applies the changes made by the given client during the session to the fabric.
