Adding zone to existing zoneset - Nexus 5k

I've inherited a Nexus 5k FCoE SAN configuration and need to add a new zone to an existing zoneset. My experience has been limited to iSCSI for the past decade (my last foray in FC was with an old Hitachi SAN that used traditional FC zones). Anyhow, I've created the new device alias and added the members to a new zone.

New device-alias: SERVER13_HBA01

Existing storage device alias: SAN01_CTRL1

New zone: SERVER13_HBA01_to_SAN01_CTRL1

The current active zoneset is "ZonesetA_May012017" in vsan 5 so would the following command be correct?

zoneset name ZonesetA_May012017 vsan 5 member SERVER13_HBA01_to_SAN01_CTRL1 exit zoneset activate name ZonesetA_May012017 vsan 5 

Also, will this cause the existing connections to drop during the activation?
