Verifying the Status of the Devices
After verifying the generation definition for the storage system devices, you need to verify the status
of the devices for each channel path (CHP).
To verify the status of the storage system devices by CHP ID:
1.
At the MVS console display the status of the storage system devices by issuing the Display
Matrix
command for each CHPID connected to the storage system (see sample output in
and
):
D M=CHP(XX)
(XX = CHP ID)
2.
Make sure that the displayed information matches the device status that was defined when
the generation definition was made.
If the information is correct, the storage system is now ready for Compatible PAV activities.
See
“Monitoring Compatible PAV Activities” (page 38)
for information on monitoring
Compatible PAV activities.
If the information is not correct, you need to redefine the storage system devices to the host
as described in sections
“Defining Base and Alias Devices” (page 34)
and
and Alias Device Definition” (page 35)
.
