the icons displayed in the Status column change to
(Online status) or (Offline(C)
status). In a cluster configuration, if a user uses the Path Management window or uses
the dlnkmgr command's offline operation to perform offline operations during
reserve processing, the offline processing waits until the reserve processing finishes.
During this wait, the path status is Online(P) rather than Offline(C); however, the icon
remains as

the path status will switch to Offline(C); however, the icon will not automatically switch
to
. To display the most recent path status, click the Refresh button.
If you click the Online button without first selecting a line or if you select a line that has
no information displayed, in the Path List view all the paths whose statuses are not
Online will change to online. Also note that if no path is selected, the Offline button
will be displayed as inactive, and will not function.
If you attempt to change the status of multiple paths but the status of one of those
paths cannot be changed, the KAPL02022-W or the KAPL02023-W message appears. To
ignore the path whose status cannot be changed and to continue processing, click the
OK button. To stop processing, click the Cancel button.
