Well, after consulting with Redhat, they suggested the same thing.
I will relay on the zoning definitions and define both site in
/etc/zfcp.conf.

Thank you very much!

If the production and DR site's WWPN's won't be available to the guest at
same time then could you have both sets of zfcp definitions in your
/etc/zfcp.conf?
 Only one set would come online depending on whether the guest was running
at production or DR site?
  Avoids need for your /etc/udev/rules.d/55-local-zfcp-conf.rules and its
script.
