- DEVICE|SUBSYSTEM|NVS|DASDFASTWRITE|CACHEFASTWRITE
- specifies whether the command pertains to caching for a specific
device or subsystem caching, nonvolatile storage, DASD fast write
to a specific device, or cache fast write access for the subsystem.
- DEVICE
- specifies
that access to the cache for a particular device is allowed or prohibited.
Abbreviation: DEV Note: - DEVICE OFF is not supported for the ESS.
- DEVICE ON or OFF can be issued to an offline device by using the
UNITNUMBER parameter.
- SUBSYSTEM
- specifies
that access to cache for the subsystem is allowed or prohibited.
Abbreviation: SUBSYS
or SSYS Note: - SUBSYSTEM OFF is not supported for the ESS.
- SUBSYSTEM OFF can be issued to an offline device by using the
UNITNUMBER parameter.
- READ access authority to the RACF® FACILITY
class resource STGADMIN.IDC.SETCACHE.SUBSYSTEM is required to use
the SUBSYSTEM parameter.
Attention: When cache operation is restored,
SETCACHE RESETTODUPLEX must be issued for each suspended duplex pair
in the subsystem.
- NVS
- specifies that access to the nonvolatile storage is allowed or
prohibited.
Note: - NVS OFF is not supported for the ESS.
- NVS OFF can be issued to an offline device by using the UNITNUMBER
parameter.
Note:
- DASDFASTWRITE
- specifies that DASD fast write to a particular device is allowed
or prohibited.
Abbreviation: DFW or DASDFW Note: - DASDFASTWRITE OFF is not supported for the ESS.
- DASDFASTWRITE ON or OFF or PENDINGOFF can be issued to an offline
device by using the UNITNUMBER parameter.
- CACHEFASTWRITE
- specifies that cache fast write for the subsystem is allowed or
prohibited.
Abbreviation: CFW or CACHEFW
- ON|OFF|PENDINGOFF
- specifies whether access is allowed or prohibited.
- ON
- specifies that access is allowed.
- OFF
- specifies that access is prohibited.
Note: Setting cache on or
off for the subsystem and setting cache on or off for a device are
independent operations. That is, cache can be set on or off for individual
devices whether the cache is on or off for the subsystem. However,
if the cache is set off for the subsystem, setting cache on for an
individual device has no effect until the cache is set on for the
subsystem.
- PENDINGOFF
- specifies a recovery command to allow cache or DASD fast write
to a particular device to be set off when cache or DASD fast write
is in pending state.
Abbreviation: PEND. Note: - This parameter should only be used as a last resort because no
destage occurs and data could be lost.
- The PENDINGOFF parameter must be used with either SUBSYSTEM or
DASDFASTWRITE, and is accepted only if SUBSYSTEM OFF or DASDFASTWRITE
OFF failed. That is, when the PENDINGOFF parameter is used with DASDFASTWRITE,
the device must be in the DEACTIVATION PENDING state. When the PENDINGOFF
parameter is used with SUBSYSTEM, the subsystem must be in the DEACTIVATION
FAILED state (see LISTDATA STATUS). Otherwise, the command is rejected.
- PENDINGOFF is not available for NVS. If NVS OFF does not obtain
the desired result, issue a DASDFASTWRITE PENDINGOFF to each device
where DASD fast write is in a deactivation pending state. NVS OFF
should then work.
- SUBCHSET(n)
- Specifies the subchannel set number from 0 to 3 that the device
number specified with the UNITNUMBEr resides in. Valid with the CACHEFASTWRITE
optional parameter when the UNITNUMBER parameter is used.
