Determines whether the resource is to be activated after the first activation of the switched major node.
ISTATUS=ACTIVE
Indicates that the resource becomes active when its major node becomes active.
ISTATUS=INACTIVE
Indicates the resource is to remain inactive until the operator activates it. The operator can override this value by specifying the SCOPE operand on the VARY ACT command when the major node is activated. See z/OS Communications Server: SNA Operation for information about using the VARY ACT command.
