HP XP7 Business Continuity Manager Reference Guide (TK954-96004)
SUSPEND
The command waits until all the copy pairs in the group reach the SUSPOP or SWAPPING status.
However, if the status of any copy pair changes to the SIMPLEX, SUSPER, SUSPCU, HOLD, HOLDER,
HOLDTRNS, NODELTA, CONSLOST, or INVALID status, the YKEWAIT command terminates
abnormally with return code 8.
SIMPLEX
The command waits until all the copy pairs in the group reach the SIMPLEX status. However, if the
status of any copy pair changes to the SUSPER, SUSPCU, HOLDER, CONSLOST, or INVALID status,
the YKEWAIT command terminates abnormally with return code 8.
SUSPVS
The command waits until all copy pairs in the group reach the SUSPOP or SUSPVS status. However,
if the status of any copy pair changes to the SUSPER, SIMPLEX, SUSPCU, HOLD, HOLDER,
HOLDTRNS, NODELTA, CONSLOST, or INVALID status, the YKEWAIT command terminates
abnormally with return code 8.
HOLD
Applies to Continuous Access Journal for Mainframe
The command waits for all copy pairs in the group to reach the HOLD status. However, if any copy
pair takes the SIMPLEX, SUSPER, SUSPCU, HOLDER, NODELTA, or INVALID status, the YKEWAIT
command terminates abnormally with return code 8. In rare cases, delta resync pairs might stay
in HOLDTRNS status. If this occurs, the YKEWAIT command does not terminate until the time
specified by TIMEOUT parameter elapses.
In the Copy Group Status Summary panel, the number of copy pairs in the HOLD status is included
in the displayed number of pairs in the SUSPOP status. In the Copy Group System Summary panel,
the number of pairs in the HOLD status is included in the displayed number of pairs in the SUSPOP
status.
SWAPPING
Applies to Continuous Access Synchronous for Mainframe, Continuous Access Synchronous for
Mainframe with the HyperSwap attribute, Continuous Access Asynchronous for Mainframe, and
Continuous Access Journal for Mainframe.
The command waits until all copy pairs in the group reach the SWAPPING status. However, if the
status of any copy pair changes to the SIMPLEX, HOLD, HOLDER, HOLDTRNS, NODELTA,
CONSLOST, or INVALID status, the YKEWAIT command terminates abnormally with return code
8.
TIMEOUT(timeout-value) ~ <numeric characters> ((0 to 9999))
Specify a timeout value in minutes. If the specified duration has elapsed before the status specified
by the GOTO parameter is attained, the YKEWAIT command checks the status of the copy group
at that moment. If the status is the same as the one specified in the GOTO parameter, the command
terminates normally (return code = 0). If not, it terminates abnormally with the return code 4.
If 0 is specified in TIMEOUT parameter, it looks at the status of the copy group immediately, and
then returns as described previously.
For CG containers specified by EXCTG ID, if this time value elapses before all journal groups are
registered in EXCTG, the YKZ298W message is output and the YKEWAIT command terminates
abnormally with return code 4. If the YKZ298W message is output, the REXX variable is disabled
(the same state as before the YKEWAIT command was executed).
