SCF Commands for SNAX/APC
This section contains information about the operator commands that apply to the
SNAX/APC subsystem. This section outlines the commands that are available, what the
command functions are, and which object types apply for each command.
The SNAX/APC subsystem commands are a subset of the commands available through
the Subsystem Control Facility (SCF). Commands that are generally supported by SCF
are documented in the Subsystem Control Facility (SCF) Reference Manual. You should
be familiar with the information in the Subsystem Control Facility (SCF) Reference
Manual before reading the SNAX/APC subsystem-specific information provided here.
Many of the SNAX/APC SCF commands provide functionality that is equivalent to
LU 6.2 control-operator verbs and parameters. For example, the ALTER PTNR-MODE
command is equivalent to the CHANGE_SESSION_LIMIT CNOS verb; the ADD
SESSION command is equivalent to the ACTIVATE_SESSION Session Control verb;
and the ADD LU is equivalent to the DEFINE_LOCAL_LU Definition verb. For a
comparison of SNAX/APC SCF commands and attributes to LU 6.2 Control-Operator
verbs and parameters, see Section D, Comparison of LU 6.2 Control Operator Verbs and
SNAX/APC.
Command Overview
Table 8-1 lists the SCF commands that are supported by SNAX/APC and provides a
general description of what each command does. Section B, SCF Command Syntax
Summary for SNAX/APC, provides a summary of the syntax for all commands specific
to the SNAX/APC subsystem. Complete descriptions of the SNAX/APC commands are
presented alphabetically later in this section.
