6.5 online (Places Paths Online)
The
dlnkmgr
command's
online
operation places offline paths online. Specify the
paths to be placed online by specifying an HBA port, CHA port, or single path. Instead
of specifying a path, you can also specify a SCSI device name.

6.5.2 Parameters
(1) To place paths online
-path
Indicates that the target of the operation is a path managed by HDLM.
This parameter is optional because
online
is always used for paths, so it is
assumed.
Make sure that you specify the path to be taken online by using the
-hba
,
-hbaid
,
-cha
,
-chaid
,
-pathid
, or
-device
parameter. If you do not specify
any of these parameters, the command will place all the offline paths online. If
there is a path that cannot be placed online, a message asking whether you would
like to continue processing will be displayed. To ignore the offline path that
cannot be placed online and to continue processing, enter
y
. To stop the
processing, enter
n
.
