SFM POLICY polname INDICATES CONNFAIL(YES|NO) FOR A SYSPLEX sysplex-name

Explanation

The indicated CONNFAIL value is the current setting for the sysplex.

In the message text:
polname
The name of the current SFM policy.
YES | NO
The CONNFAIL value for the sysplex.
sysplex-name
The sysplex name.

System action

For CONNFAIL(YES), SFM will take recovery actions in the event of loss of signaling connectivity failures between one or more systems in the sysplex. SFM will perform sysplex partitioning actions using the WEIGHT values specified for each system in the sysplex as a basis to determine the best set of systems to remain in the sysplex, given the connectivity failures that have occurred.

CONNFAIL(NO) indicates the operator will be prompted to decide which system or systems to partition from the sysplex.

Operator response

Make sure that the CONNFAIL value specified is the one expected. Notify the system programmer if the value is unexpected.

System programmer response

Correct and start the policy if mistakes are found.
