Test the 6760 Adapter
Test the 6760 Adapter
After configuring and starting the tape drive (using the SCF ADD and START
commands) use the SCF STATUS command or the TSM package to test the paths to
the devices you’ve installed.
EMS events are generated when the adapter is installed and the power-on self-test
(POST) passes its tests. EMS events are also generated when the power-on self-test
(POST) fails. This failure also results in a TSM alarm and dialout (if enabled). To verify
whether anything unusual occurred during a POST, issue the SCF STATUS ADAPTER
command. For example, to see the status of all 6760 adapters on the server, issue the
SCF command:
-> STATUS ADAPTER $ZZSTO.#SNDA.*
To see an example of a STATUS ADAPTER report, see Viewing Status Information
About a 6760 Adapter on page 4-1. If you suspect hardware problems, see Using TSM
to Check the Adapter Hardware on page 3-18.
To view configuration information about 6760 adapters you have installed, issue the
SCF INFO ADAPTER command. For example, to produce a summary report of all
6760 adapters in group 01, issue the SCF command:
-> INFO ADAPTER $ZZSTO.#SNDA.GRP-1.*
To see an example of an INFO ADAPTER summary report, see Viewing Configuration
Information About a 6760 Adapter on page 3-4.
