it's because your distribution is set to active zoneset only, you can enable full zoneset distribution as mentioned in that thread. I would first run it on the old switch and then on the new one.
zoneset distribute full vsan 2

Yes, running :
config# zoneset distribute vsan 2
is enough to update the fcalias info to the new switch
