Zones

Zones are a logical grouping of one or more Universal Messaging server instances (realms) that maintain active connections to each other. Each Universal Messaging server instance can be a member of zero or one zone, but a server instance cannot be a member of more than one zone. For more information about zones, see the Zones section in the Universal Messaging Concepts guide.

You can create, edit, or delete a zone using the Command Central web user interface. You can create Zone with Realms consisting one or more reams, or create Zone with Clusters consisting one or more Universal Messaging clusters. You can export the zone configuration using the Export option.
