Hi, thanks for your anwsers. The "inoperative path" appeared in devices (3490) tha are physsicaly at our other site. Both sites are connected through a DWDM network with FICON cascading.
Lizette: The affected CHPIDs are 06 and 96, have a closer look at the IOS450E. The "DS P,xxxx" shows that the path through 06 and 96 the are inoperative (<). The "D M=CHP(06)" shows that the paths are not operational ($). We have checked close to every hardware component (fibers, SFPs,...) involved in the path to the CU, and everything seems to be working OK. My question was why can paths get inoperative without a meaningful infrastructural change. We upgrade one z10 to z196, but the IOS appeared in LPARs in the "old" z10, where nothing was changed. Thanks in advance. Regards, Christian. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
