LBU Object Logical States
LBU Object Logical States
The logical state of an LBU object ($ZZFOX.#X or $ZZFOX.#Y) determines what SCF
commands can act on the object. Table 4-3 lists the different logical states for an LBU
object.
Table 4-4 lists the valid logical states for each SCF command.
STARTED The object is initialized and ready for normal data traffic. The flow of
information is unrestricted.
STARTING The object is being initialized and is in transition to the STARTED state.
STOPPED The object is configured, there are no links either to or from the object,
and no new links may be established. A nonconfigured object cannot
report this state because in the process of stopping the object is deleted.
Note. The term ServerNet/FX adapter refers to the ServerNet/FX and the ServerNet/FX 2
adapter hardware.
