CAUTION:

The QUIESCE option of the CSUSPEND command has been disabled by APAR

OW15247 or APAR OW15248. See either of these APARs and the latest IBM PPRC documentation
for detailed information on the QUIESCE option of the CSUSPEND command. Please check with
your HP account team before using the CSUSPEND command with the QUIESCE option to suspend
Continuous Access Synchronous Z pairs on P9500 storage systems. If the CSUSPEND command
with the QUIESCE option is issued to certain volumes (for example, active SPOOL, PAGE, or
CATALOG datasets, active SYSRES volume), the attached host(s) may enter a deadlock condition
and may require a storage control IML to correct the condition.

For Fibre Channel interface, do not use the CESTPATH and CDELPATH commands at the same
time as the SCSI path definition function of LUN Manager. The FC ports need to be configured
