CONFIGxx (standard configuration list)

CONFIGxx is a list of control statements that an installation can use to define a standard configuration of system elements. The system elements include the processors, storage, channel paths, devices, PCIE function identifiers (PFIDs), and volumes. You can use the configuration defined in CONFIGxx in two ways:

  1. To compare the differences between the current configuration and the standard configuration as defined in a CONFIGxx member. When the operator issues the DISPLAY command with the M=CONFIG(xx) option, the system displays any differences.
  2. To reconfigure some of the system elements. The operator can issue the CONFIG command with the MEMBER option.
