AutoPATH_ID
Use this parameter to place online, at one time, all the paths that pass through a
specific CHA port. The command will place online all the paths that pass through
the CHA port to which the path with the specified AutoPATH_ID is connected.
Specify the current AutoPATH_ID of the target path, which is displayed by using
the
view operation. For details about the view operation, see 6.7 view (Displays
Information). Leading zeros can be omitted (
000001 and 1 indicate the same
AutoPATH_ID); however, when the target AutoPATH_ID is
000000, enter
000000 or 0 for the parameter value.
AutoPATH_IDs are re-assigned every time the host is restarted. When you want
to add a new LU without restarting the host, AutoPATH_IDs are re-assigned to
each path of the LU when you execute the
cfgmgr command. Always make sure
that you use the
view operation to find the current AutoPATH_ID of the target
path, before executing the
online operation.
Example
The following example shows how to place online the paths connected to the
CHA port
0A. In this example, a path whose AutoPATH_ID is 000002 is
connected to the target CHA port.
When the confirmation message is displayed, the user enters
y to continue,
or
n to cancel the operation.
