Explanation
While a CHPID was being reconfigured offline or
a Path was being varied offline, a swap occurred causing the respective
function to be canceled. For this type of cancel, paths that were
already processed are not brought back online, thus possibly leaving
the paths in an inconsistent state.
For a CONFIG CHP,OFFLINE
command, some or all of the paths may have already been taken logically
offline. However, the channel path will still be physically online.
For
a VARY PATH,OFFLINE command, the device path displayed will still
be logically online.
In the message text:
- xx
- The channel path identifier.
- dev
- The device number.
System action
The system performs one of the following actions:
- For a CONFIG CHP OFFLINE, if a swap is detected while the paths
are being taken logically offline, the system ends processing such
that any device path that has already been taken offline is left offline
and any device path that has not yet been taken offline is left online.
The system leaves the channel path configured physically online. If
there are other channel paths referenced on the CONFIG command that
have not yet been processed, the system completely bypasses processing
these channel paths and message IEE022I is issued for each.
- For a VARY PATH OFFLINE command, when a swap is detected for a
device being processed, the system leaves the path online and ends
processing such that any device path referenced on the VARY PATH OFFLINE
command that has not yet been taken offline is bypassed and left online.
Message IEE022I is issued for each device path that is not taken offline.
Also, any device path referenced on the VARY PATH OFFLINE command
that has already completed its offline processing is not brought back
online.
Operator response
If a Hyperswap was in progress, wait for the
Hyperswap to complete and then reissue the CONFIG or VARY command.
