Resetting the SMF Master Process

The RESET MON Command (page 14-127) puts the SMF master process into the

STOPPED state, substate DOWN, reading for restarting.

1. Check the current status of the SMF master process:

-> STATUS $ZSMS

2. If it is not in the STOPPED state, substate DOWN:

-> RESET $ZSMS

3. Start the SMF master process:

-> START $ZSMS

4. Verify the SMF master process is started:

-> STATUS $ZSMS

Swapping Processors for the SMF Master Process

The PRIMARY MON Command (page 14-117) swaps the primary and backup

processors for the SMF master process. The current primary processor of a specified

device becomes the backup processor, and the backup processor becomes the

primary processor, but the PRIMARYCPU and BACKUPCPU values stay the same.

You typically swap processors when load balancing the system or preparing for disk

replacement.

Examples

•

To execute the primary process of $ZSMS in processor 3 (assuming it is

configured to run in processor 3):

-> PRIMARY $ZSMS, 3

•

To make the current backup process of $ZSMS the primary process:

-> PRIMARY $ZSMS
