beginning at partition 0, until it encounters an invalid description. All further 
partition descriptions for that entity are ignored. 
For example, if partitions 0, 1, 2, and 4 are valid for the CPU entity, but 
partition 3 is invalid, only partition descriptions 0, 1, and 2 are used when 
creating the CPU database. Partition description 4 is ignored, even though 
it is valid, because description 3 is invalid. 
 If partitioning is enabled for an entity, the Valid column of the SET 
PARTITION output indicates the status of each configured partition with 
one of these values: 
Value 
Indicates That the Partition Definition 
Is... 
Used by Collector to 
Create Database? 
 Yes 
Valid. 
 Yes 
 No-Vol 
Invalid because no volume was 
specified. 
 No 
 No-Sys/Key 
Invalid because no KEY or SYSNO was 
specified. 
 No 
 No-Vol,Sys/Key 
  Invalid because no VOLUME and no 
KEY or SYSNO was specified 
 No 
 No-Prior Inv 
Invalid because a prior partition 
definition was invalid. The definition 
itself is correct, but a previous partition 
definition for the entity is incomplete. 
 No 
 ??-Key Seq 
Questionable because the partitioning 
key (a combination of the SYSNO and 
KEY values) is less than the partitioning 
key of a prior partition definition. Fix the 
key sequencing. 
  Yes, with errors 
 ??-Dup Vol 
Questionable because a prior partition 
definition uses the same volume. Each 
partition must be on a separate volume. 
  Yes, with errors 
 ??-Vol Unknown 
Questionable because the specified 
volume does not exist on the system on 
which ASAP is running. Either you gave 
a remote name for a partition volume or 
a configuration is being prepared on one 
system for another. Specify an existing 
volume. 
  Yes, with errors 
 ??-Vol Down 
  Questionable because the specified 
volume is down. Specify a volume that 
is not down. 
  Yes, with errors 
 ??-Partn Size 
Not optimal because the maximum 
potential partition size defined by 
PRIEXT, SECEXT, and MAXEXTENTS 
exceeds the limit for the specified file 
  Yes, with errors
