Example 31 ALTER CLIM With MULTIPROV ON
> ALTER CLIM $ZZCIP.N1002541, MULTIPROV ON
ALTER CLIM Guidelines
• The MULTIPROV and PROVIDER attributes can be altered only when the specified CLIM is not
in STORAGE MODE.
• If the specified CLIM has the MULTIPROV attribute set to OFF, the PROVIDER attribute can be
altered only when the specified CLIM is in STOPPED state with no active interfaces failed-over
to any other CLIMs and there are no ROUTE objects associated with the specified CLIM.
• The MULTIPROV attribute can be altered to OFF only if the parent of all ROUTE objects
associated with the specified CLIM is the same as the PROVIDER attribute of that CLIM.
• The MULTIPROV attribute can be altered to OFF when the specified CLIM is in STARTED state
only if all configured network resources on the specified CLIM are associated with the provider
specified by the PROVIDER attribute of that CLIM.
• If both the MULTIPROV and PROVIDER attributes are being altered with the same command
line, the behavior is the same as first altering the PROVIDER attribute (assuming the previous
value of the MULTIPROV attribute) followed by altering the MULTIPROV attribute. If either
attribute cannot be altered, both attributes will not be changed and the command will fail.
• If the MULTIPROV attribute is altered successfully while the CLIM is not in STARTED state, the
CIP subsystem will attempt to make sure that the configuration on that CLIM matches the
updated MULTIPROV attribute during CLIM start up. If the configuration on that CLIM cannot
be converted to match the updated MULTIPROV attribute, the CLIM will not be able to go to
STARTED state and there will be an EMS event to indicate a configuration mismatch problem.
In particular, if the MULTIPROV attribute is OFF but the CLIM is configured with MULTIPROV
ON and has any configured network resources associated with a provider other than the
provider specified by the PROVIDER attribute of that CLIM object, then the CLIM configuration
cannot be converted to MULTIPROV OFF.
• The CLIM may be altered in any state with the restrictions listed above.
ALTER PROVIDER
The ALTER PROVIDER command is a sensitive command that changes one or more attributes of an
existing provider in the target system.
ALTER PROVIDER Command Syntax
ALTER PROVIDER $ZZCIP.prov-name
[,TPNAME tp-name]
[,HOSTNAME hostname]
[,HOSTID hostid]
[,BRECVPORT {RESET |(port [,port [...]])]
[,TCP-LISTEN-QUE-MIN queue-size ]
[[,SHARE-PORTS num-ports] [,FAMILY {INET|DUAL}]|
[,CLIM clim-name], IPADDRESS ip-addr]]
prov-name
specifies the name of the provider to be altered
For the attribute definitions, see “ADD PROVIDER” (page 228)
Example 32 reconfigures PROVIDER ZTC1 so its HOSTID is 25.0.0.0.
