Table 62 FICON CUP mode register bits
POSC Programmed offline state control. When this bit is set on, the host is prevented
from taking the switch offline. The default setting is 1 (on).
UAM User alert mode. When this bit is set on, a warning is issued when an action is
attempted that will write CUP parameters on the switch. The default setting is
0(off).
ASM Active=saved mode. When this bit is set on, all CUP configuration parameters
are persistent, meaning that they will be saved in nonvolatile storage in the
initial program load (IPL) file that is applied upon a cold reboot or a power
cycle. The default setting is 1 (on).
DCAM Switch clock alert mode. When this bit is set on, a warning is issued when the
date, tsClockServer, or tsTimeZone commands are entered to set the
time and date on the switch. The default setting is 0 (off).
ACP Alternate control prohibited. Because the Fabric OS CLI, Web Tools, and
Fabric Manager are considered to be switch consoles, this bit has no effect on
their operation. Attempts to set CUP parameters through SNMP are denied
when this bit is set on. The default setting is 1 (on).
HCP Host control prohibited. When this bit is set on, the host is not allowed to set
CUP parameters. The default setting is 1 (on).
