Chapter 3. Host Gens – OS/390 with HCD
Task List
The following is a general list of the tasks that are needed to
successfully implement the CCA-3074 in the OS/390 host environment.
(An assumption is made that the LPARs being used are already
defined.) Example panels are given for many of the steps below, along
with other example panels to give you a better flavor of what to expect
to see.
• Define Switch (ESCON Director) if not already defined (HCD
Panels 4-9)
• Define CHPID: identifies which ESCON or FICON cable
connected to the processor, Director (switch), and downstream port
to the controller are to be used (view: HCD Panel 13)
• Define Controller Definition: identifies controller type, protocol
(define: 16-18, 20 / view: 14, 19)
• Define I/O Device Definitions: defines the number of I/O devices
(define: 21-26, 29 / view: 15, 28)
• Define the Explicit Device Candidate List (on EMIF systems): Used
to limit access to each CCA-3074 host circuit to one LPAR (define:
23, 24)
• Build the production I/O Definition File with the new definitions
