Steps for Upgrading Software With System Loads to
Obtain G06.14 Functionality
d. Use SCF on all nodes to verify that direct ServerNet connectivity has been
restored on the X fabric:
>SCF STATUS SUBNET $ZZSCL
7. Repeat Step 6 for the Y-fabric cluster switch.
8. If you are upgrading a cluster that uses a split-star topology, repeat Step 6 and
Step 7 using the X2/Y2 downloader node.
Note. Direct ServerNet connectivity is automatically restored after an interval of
approximately 50 seconds times the number of nodes in the cluster (25 seconds for
nodes running G06.14 or a later G-series RVU). For faster (but manual) recovery of
ServerNet connectivity, use the SCF START SERVERNET
\REMOTE.$ZSNET.FABRIC.* command on all affected nodes after you have used the
TSM Service Application to verify that the X-fabric cluster switch is operational.
The START SERVERNET command works only for nodes running G06.12 or a later
G-series RVU. For nodes running G06.09 through G06.11, you can use the following
commands:
SCF STOP SUBSYS $ZZSCL
SCF START SUBSYS $ZZSCL
Stopping and restarting the ServerNet cluster subsystem destroys and restarts
interprocessor connectivity between the node that receives the commands and all
other nodes over both external fabrics.
