6.5.2 Parameters

,

-cha

,

, or

-hdev

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 asks whether you would like to continue processing. To

ignore the offline path that cannot be placed online and to continue processing,
