When you specify on, specify the checking interval by specifying the parameter
immediately following
on. If you do not specify a checking interval, path statuses
will be checked in the following way:
• When the checking interval has not been specified before:
Every 60 minute (default setting)
• When the checking interval has been specified before:
The previously used interval
The explanation for the following sub-parameter describes how to specify the
interval between path status checks.
-intvl checking-interval
Specify the interval between path status checks. Specify a value from 1 to
1440 minutes. The default is
60. Specify an interval appropriate for your
operating environment.
If intermittent error monitoring is
on and the number of times that the error
is to occur is set to a value of 2 or more, the following condition must be
satisfied:
error-monitoring-interval
>= checking-interval-for-automatic-failback x
number-of-times-error-is-to-occur-during-intermittent-error-monitoring
If this condition is not satisfied, the KAPL01080-W message will be output
and an error will occur. If this happens, change any of the following settings:
the checking interval for automatic failbacks, intermittent error-monitoring
interval, or the number of times that the error is to occur.
When you set the number of times that the error is to occur to
1, the above
condition does not need to be satisfied.
When you changed the error monitor interval while intermittent error
monitoring is running, the new settings will take effect immediately. When
the checking interval is shortened and the checking interval time after the
change has already elapsed during the current checking interval, the path
status check will start over.
This setting remains stored in the system, even if you disable the function by
changing the setting of automatic failbacks to
off. Therefore, if you
re-enable automatic failbacks and do not change the interval, path status
checks will be executed at the interval already stored in the system.
