22.2 Check Configuration of All CRUs
22.2 Check Configuration of All CRUs
In this step, check whether the CRUs in the target system were configured correctly
and whether they passed their power-on self-tests (POSTs).
1. Start a TACL session and log on as a super-group user.
2. Start SCF and enter this command:
->STATUS ADAPTER $ZZSTO.*
The command returns listings for all storage adapters in the target system. The
following example shows what a partial display might look like. In this example, the
information indicating that POSTs for newly added enclosure 21 have failed
appears in bold type.
All the enclosures in the block you just added should display POST PASSED for
slots 50 and 55. If you receive any other message, see POST Fails on page 7-9.
