DEVIMAGE table (export-only)

Table 1. DEVIMAGE Table (export-only)
Field Name Format Description
Table Name Text DEVIMAGE
Device ID Text EO <IODF Key> The ID of the IODF object. Normally the device number, but may be further qualified as described for the ID field of the DEVICE table.
Image ID Text EO <IODF Key>

For images on BASIC mode processors, consists of a processor ID (for example, PROC1).

For images on LPAR mode processors, consists of a processor ID, a separator, and a logical partition name (for example, PROC1/LPAR1).

The presence or absence of a separator in this field can thus be used as an indicator of what type of image this is.

Link type Enum EO Valid values are:
A
Device reaches image via a CHPID that has that image in its access list.
C
Device reaches image via a CHPID that has that image in its candidate list.
-
Device reaches image via a CHPID that has that image in either its access or candidate list, but the image is not in the device's explicit candidate list.
+
Device does not connect to any CHPID that has this partition in its access or candidate list, yet the device's explicit candidate list includes that image.
Subchannel Set ID Text EO The ID of the subchannel set where the device is placed related to the device-processor definition.
Note: This table is provided to facilitate the use of export files to create reports on logical connectivity of devices to images (taking into account any explicit candidate lists). Normally, this table can be exported regardless of whether you are running in stand-alone or online mode. However, if the configuration has devices which are connected to a processor via a reconfigurable (REC) CHPID, communication with the host is required in order to determine whether the processor model is EMIF capable or not. In online mode, the communication takes place automatically and transparently. In stand-alone mode, you will see an appropriate error message indicating that the attempted operation is not permitted in stand-alone mode. The name of the table currently being exported appears in the status bar, so you will know which table required host access.
