FICON emulation monitoring
Use the -emul option for the portShow xtun command to display FICON emulation statistics. The
syntax for this command is portshow xtun [slot/]ve_port -ficon -emul.
The -emul option displays statistics and status for printer, Teradata, tape, and IBM z/OS Global Mirror
emulation.
IBM z/OS Global Mirror emulation (formerly eXtended Remote Copy or XRC) and tape statistics are
presented differently in output formats for the -emul option. The following elements are common to
both tape and IBM z/OS Global Mirror emulation outputs (refer to
page 74 for an illustration of actual tape and XRC emulation statistics output).
FDCB
Ptr
A pointer to the FICON Device Control Block. Support personnel may use this
pointer.
Path
The device path, in the format VE-HD-HP-DD-DP-LP-CU-DV: where
•
VE is the internal VE_Port number.
•
HD is the hex value for the Host Domain (the entry domain for this host port
into the fabric).
•
HP is the hex value for the Host Port (the entry port of this host connection
into the fabric).
•
DD is the hex value for the Device Domain (the entry domain for this device
into the fabric).
•
DP is the hex value for the Device Port (the entry port for this device
connection into the fabric).
•
LP is the Logical Partition (LPAR) value for the host accessing the specific
device.
•
CU is the Control Unit number (CUADDR) for the specific FICON connection.
•
DV is the Device Number of this FICON connected device.
For example, the value 2463016406050001 breaks down as follows.

is active.
