SCF Reference Manual for the Storage Subsystem (G06.28+, H06.05+, J06.03+)

The threshold percentage of disk space usage at which the disk processes associated with the
physical volume in the storage pool should generate an EMS warning message.
DiskThreshold
The extent interval at which the disk processes associated with the physical volumes in the
storage pool should generate additional file-extent usage EMS messages.
ExtentInterval
Shows the threshold for remaining extend allocation space at which the disk processes associated
with the physical volume in the storage pool should generate an EMS warning message.
ExtentThreshold
The desired PIN range for the storage pool process.HighPin
Shows whether physical or mirrored volumes are allowed or required in the storage pool.Physical Mirrored
Shows whether the storage pool process generates additional EMS messages.Mode
$ZSMS, the name of the SMF master process.Monitor
The preferred processor in which the storage pool process should start its primary process.PrimaryCPU
The object file name of the storage pool process.Program
Shows whether the storage pool process is created in a STARTED or STOPPED state after a
system load or processor load.
StartState
The time interval, in minutes, at which the storage pool process should collect information about
the physical volumes in the storage pool.
UpdateStats
Shows the configuration state for the storage pool process. The value displayed is:Configuration State
Fully Defined—The storage pool process has a configuration record and is defined by the SMF
master process ($ZSMS).
No Definition with SMF Master Process—Although there is a system configuration database
record, the SMF master process indicates it has no definition for the storage pool process. If
this value is displayed, use the SCF DELETE command to remove the configuration record.
SMF Master Process Down—-Information expected to come from the SMF master process is not
available because the SMF master process is not available; that is, there is no way to know
whether it exists.
Shows all disk volumes associated with the storage pool.Physical Volumes
Shows all virtual disk volumes associated with the storage pool.Virtual Volumes
Displaying Storage Pool Status Information
The “STATUS POOL Command” (page 285) displays current status information about the storage
pool.
Example of a STATUS POOL Report
