STATUS PATH Command
local-processor
is the processor number in the local cluster that specifies the beginning of the FOX
direct logical path for which you are requesting status information. A local-
processor or an asterisk (*) must be explicitly specified.
remote-cluster
is the system name of one of the clusters (other than the local cluster) on the FOX
ring to which remote-processor belongs. A remote-cluster or an asterisk
(*) must be explicitly specified.
remote-processor
is the processor number in remote-cluster that specifies the destination of the
FOX direct logical path for which you are requesting status information. A
remote-processor or an asterisk (*) must be explicitly specified.
DETAIL
specifies that the display is to include additional detailed information about the
PATH object.
Consideration
The starting point for a FOX direct logical path that is managed by SCF is in the
local cluster. However, SCF can be invoked remotely to manage FOX direct logical
paths spanning over non-local clusters. To remotely manage FOX direct logical
paths via SCF, the remote cluster must be running software that supports the
ServerNet/FX Path Management Facility.
Examples
The following example is similar to the display returned by the STATUS PATH
command. This STATUS PATH command without the DETAIL option is useful in
checking for FOX connectivity without looking into the status of each individual FOX
direct logical path. If the PATH DOWN or CPU STUCK fields show zero (0), the specified
FOX connection is intact. Otherwise, additional detailed information can be requested
