Rebuild Connect Phase

z/OS MVS Programming: Sysplex Services Guide
SA23-1400-00

This phase applies to rebuild and duplexing rebuild processes. When the Rebuild Quiesce phase ends, each connector receives a Rebuild Connect event to indicate that the connector should issue a connect request for the new or duplexed structure. The system allocates the new structure upon receipt of the first connect request; subsequent connect requests allow the issuer access to the newly-allocated structure. Connectors to the structure are notified of other connected users through their event exit. When a connected user has issued its connect request to the new structure, the user can begin reconstructing or propagating its data to the new structure. As each connector completes its processing to transfer data to the new structure, the connector issues a rebuild complete request (IXLREBLD REQUEST=COMPLETE) to indicate the completion to the system.

When the system has received the complete request from all active connectors to the structure, the Rebuild Connect Phase ends and one of two sync points is reached:
  • If this is rebuild, the Rebuild Complete Sync Point is reached and processing continues with the Rebuild Cleanup Phase.
  • If this is duplexing rebuild, the Rebuild Duplex Established Sync Point is reached and processing continues with the Rebuild Duplex Established Phase.
