System action

The SWITCH DEVICE PORT status availability has been updated. The result of an ONLINE request is that if managed channel resources are needed and available, dynamic channel path management may attach additional channel paths to the devices.

The result of an OFFLINE request is that the port becomes unavailable for attaching additional channel paths from dynamic channel path management. Existing managed channel paths were removed.

Operator response

This message is the result of a VARY ONLINE or OFFLINE port request to dynamic channel path management. Managed paths to one or more devices are varied ONLINE or OFFLINE. The operator must take action to VARY ONLINE or OFFLINE any non-managed paths.
